Video: Sony Xperia Z tablet demoed

By Gadjo Cardenas Sevilla

Here's the Sony Xperia Z's  design and features being demoed by Sony Canada. This is the second Xperia tablet from Sony but the third Android tablet device that they have come out with in Canada. The Xperia Z continues in the tradition of second-screen Android tablets that can do double-duty as an 'Everything Remote,' so aside from home theatre components it can even control home automation widgets. The Xperia Z, coming in March, features a robust quad core processor, 2GB of RAM, Android OS Jelly Bean and all of Sony's content applications built in. It is clearly one of the nicest and most functional Android tablets out there not to mention one of the few water-resistant amd dunkable devices in the market.
