Sony’s Tablet S- Review and Specification


Sony’s Tablet S is one of the latest and late entrant in the Android Tablet market in India but unlike the other iPad wannabees the Tablet S design looks stylish and original, it is lightweight and quite comfortable in hands. Tablet S is powered by a dual-core 1GHz Tegra 2 Processorwith 1GB RAM and is a smooth performer. Read our review of the Tablet S to see if it has in it to take on the other Android Tablets. The placement of apps and other settings have been customized for better user experience. Also the Apps drawer white background and general dark background of the tablet doesn’t really works well for the eyes, but you can always change your wallpaper however you cannot change the background of app drawer.
Tablet S sports a TruBlack display which is gorgeously vibrant, the screen size is 9.4” having a resolution of 1280 x 800 pixels with border less design, you will love to watch HD videos on it.

Tablet S Design:
At first look you would not find the buttons at the front panel as they are hidden on the right side at the location where your fingers would normally be when you hold it in landscape mode. Left side has SD card reader, microUSB and 3.5 mm audio jack, it could now also support PS3 game controller courtesy of the recent firmware update, but you will need to pair it with a separately sold microUSB cable. At the bottom left is a Proprietary charging port.

PlayStation Certified Android Tablet S
Tablet S is the world’s first Android tablet with PlayStation certification, which means that if you are a gamer then you would definitely enjoy what this tablet has to offer. A recent software update enabled the use of PS3 controller to play games on this tablet. Two PlayStation games – Pinball Heroes and Crash Bandicoot comes pre-installed.

Gaming Performance:
Tablet S handles the normal and HD games pretty well, there is also a trial download link of 5 Gameloft HD games given in the tablet, Asphalt 6 is also among them which looks and plays really good. The only issue we faced with Tablet S is its Wi-Fi connectivity issue, it auto disconnects from Wi-Fi and then doesn’t auto reconnect, we have to turn off and on Wi-Fi from the Tablet every time manually to make it work.

Battery Life of Tablet S:
Tablet S comes with a 5,000 mAH in-built battery which will easily get you 1 day of normal usage. If you plan to use the tablet heavily with games and HD viewing you will have to charge it daily.
