• Documentation

The new Sony tablet: light, thin, with LTE support, interesting design, now without films, and everything would be fine, but there are also disadvantages typical for the company. A strange display, a strange easily soiled black plastic, everything is rather strange with the complete power supply, a strange price. But Sony fans will still be very pleased, that's for sure!

Design, construction

The company claims that this is the thinnest and lightest water-resistant tablet on the market - well, the war of the “most-most” is constantly on the market, and no one forbids inventing new categories. However, words are words, but when I picked up the Sony Xperia Tablet Z2 for the first time, I was surprised, the device is really weightless, the dimensions are 172 x 266 x 6.4 mm, the weight is 426 grams for the version with Wi-Fi, the model with Wi- Fi + LTE weighs 439 grams. Almost the entire front panel is occupied by the display, although the frames are wide - apparently, this is a retribution for the minimum thickness of the device. The back is made of matte black plastic, the traces are very noticeable, there is also a white version, I would recommend buying it. It's all about the prints, they are invisible on the white case. At the end there is a power button, the same as that of smartphones, made of aluminum. Under the plugs are microUSB connectors (MHL supported), a slot for memory cards and SIM cards (microSIM) in the version with LTE. A 3.5 mm connector without a plug, apparently, a new five-pin connector is also used here. Behind - the camera lens, no flash, under the lens - the NFC area. On the case there is an infrared port for controlling home appliances, and a magnetic connector, I recommend immediately buying such a cradle somewhere.

I want to note that after the appearance of the iPad Air, a new bar was set for all manufacturers, first of all, we are talking about weight - Sony took up this indicator for a reason. That's just the question, for whom it can be important? Probably, for those who often carry their equipment in a bag, they are used to saving every hundred grams - it is difficult to imagine such a person, but who knows, maybe such consumers exist.

In addition, Sony Xperia Tablet Z2 is water resistant (meets IP55/58 standards), can withstand immersion in a bath or sea. In Japan, the cult of the bathroom, the desire to get such protection is understandable. In Russia, the situation is different, so tablet protection is not a serious marketing advantage - all this is just my subjective opinion. But what is an advantage is the appearance of the device. If you don’t like Samsung, then there’s nothing else to look at among Android tablets - in the sense that it’s very, very pleasant for me to personally look at the Sony Xperia Tablet Z2.

Here are some official data on the protection of the tablet: “In accordance with IP55 and IP58 standards, Xperia is protected from dust and moisture. Provided that all ports and compartments are tightly closed, the tablet will withstand low pressure water jets from any angle in accordance with the IP 55 standard; can be submerged in fresh water at a depth of 1.5 m for 30 minutes in accordance with the IP 58 standard. The design of the tablet does not allow it to be on the surface or under water, unless it meets the conditions of IP55 or IP58 standards. Failure to comply with standards will otherwise void the warranty."

The tablet bends a little, so keep this in mind when you carry the device in a bag with other things. Lightness really matters, I was pleased to use the Tablet Z2 just because of this indicator, it is not felt in a backpack, in my hand either, but from the first minutes of use I want to hide the tablet in a case.

Two speakers are used here, they are located on the sides of the display, the volume cannot be called exorbitant - you can comfortably watch a movie, listen to music, there is a stereo effect. It seemed to me that the volume is higher than that of the first generation tablet. By the way, you can watch AVI without conversion, there is support for such files by default.

Display

The TRILUMINOS IPS display is used, the same technology as in the Sony Xperia Z2 smartphone (I recommend watching the video, it is described in more or less detail). It looks good indoors, good viewing angles, brightness. The diagonal is 10.1 inches, the resolution is 1920 x 1200 pixels. There are no films on the front and back, at least I could not see it. Tempered glass protects the display from scratches and does not need films, I have been talking about this for a long time.

The unusual aspect ratio of the display also affects the perception of the tablet, one friend asked the question - is this a new photo frame? Indeed, Tablet Z2 is very much like a photo frame. The display is well suited for watching movies, photos, working with sites - for example, layout in WordPress. Viewing angles are not bad, but the white is slightly yellow, and adjusting the white balance will not fix this. Moreover, sometimes the screen is a little yellow, and sometimes it seems pinkish.

In the video, I say that the Tablet Z2 has the same display as the iPad Air, I didn't mean the actual data (the Air has 9.7 inches, the Tablet Z2 has 10.1 inches), but the perception as a whole. If suddenly you decide to buy Z2 because it has a larger diagonal, look at the store for both devices. I'm sure you'll also think that the size on the side of the Air is all about the aspect ratio, the Tablet Z2's is really quite strange. It is because of this that I do not recommend buying the device blindly, twist it in your hands in the store, then make a decision.

Performance

Uses Qualcomm APQ8074+MSM8974AB platform, 2.3GHz quad-core processor. Android 4.4 operating system, 3 GB of RAM, Adreno 330 adapter. LTE is supported, and, judging by the words of colleagues, this tablet can work as a smartphone, if you wish, you can make a call, send a message. 16 or 32 GB of memory is installed, memory cards up to 64 GB are also supported, not bad for those who want to watch videos on the tablet, since the display has this.

Of the features - it is supported to exit sleep mode by double tapping on the display, it has its own wallpapers and themes, many icons are redrawn, the notification menu looks different, it opens from one side and the other: on the one hand, notifications, on the other - access to quick settings. Among the applications there are a number of additional ones, these are Evernote, "Sketch" for drawing with a stylus, Social Live, Track ID and so on, you can see in the screenshots. There is also a program for remote control of equipment, it works, but I usually don’t use such software - why?

Modifications

So far, three modifications with hard-to-pronounce names are being sold, such as SGP511RU, two versions with Wi-Fi (16 and 32 GB), a model with Wi-Fi + LTE with only 16 GB of memory. Two colors, black and white, in terms of functionality and characteristics, a headset is included with a tablet with LTE, with the rest - only a power supply and a USB cable. In my opinion, you can buy any, especially if you have a smartphone with LTE support. No one bothers to turn on Sony Xperia Z2 as a hotspot, connect Tablet Z2 and do everything you need to do on the big screen.

I’ll immediately say about accessories, again a bunch of various additions, this is a Bluetooth speaker with a stand, a stand with a remote control for watching movies, a clip-on keyboard - a BKC-50 case.

You can connect a PS3 controller to the tablet, this is discussed separately - also an interesting feature, but why not connect a PS4 joystick? Here, too, work is supported with accessories for the new 3.5 mm jack, these are headphones with noise reduction implemented on the side of the device, the STM-10 microphone. By the way, it will be very convenient to watch the video on the plane, “noise canceling” perfectly crushes the sounds around, I checked the operation of the headphones with both the Z2 smartphone and the tablet.

Nutrition

It is curious that Qualcomm Quick Charge 2.0 technology is used here, let me remind you that the previous tablet had to be charged for about five hours (or even longer, I don’t remember exactly). Here, as it is written in the release, the operating time is increased by 75 percent. A 6000 mAh battery is installed, according to the company, the tablet can work 10 hours of video playback or 100 hours of music playback. In reality, the tablet behaves approximately like the iPad Air, but subjectively it discharges faster. Alas, the tablet takes a long time to charge from the bundled PSU, about five hours, it is better to use a magnetic docking station, the charging time is reduced by thirty percent (subjective opinion, there was a prototype on the test).

Camera

The main camera is 8.1 MP, the proprietary Exmor RS module is used, HDR mode is supported. Front camera - 2.2 MP. Many functions from the cameras of Sony Xperia smartphones are used, some can be seen in the video. In particular, these are augmented reality effects, fairy tale, fantasy and others, I like them since the days of Sony Xperia Z1.

conclusions

In retail prices are about the following: the version with Wi-Fi and LTE costs about 27,990 rubles, models with Wi-Fi cost 23,990/25,990 rubles, depending on the memory, this is 16 or 32 GB. I want to remind you that the outdated iPad Air with LTE and 32 GB of memory costs 28,990 rubles. It seems to me that Sony set the price for Russia somewhat chaotically, you can close your eyes to Samsung's competing products, but you can't close your eyes to the most popular gadgets in the category. It seems to me that for the version with Wi-Fi and 16 GB of memory you could ask for about 20,000 rubles, but for the older one - about 25,000 rubles, such a price tag could be adequate.

On the other hand, Sony may not be counting on serious sales, it is more important to have such a device in stock, to study demand. I am glad that the company is now very careful about the continuation, further development of certain categories. Previously, Sony could afford to create all sorts of strange gadgets like the Sony Tablet P, a clamshell tablet with two screens. Now is another time. And that is why the Sony Xperia Tablet Z2 is a pleasure to deal with, it is lighter than its predecessor, when using a magnetic docking station it charges faster, there is water protection, a better camera, less heat during use (this is subjective). What is left to overcome? Marked black plastic, it is quite possible to put a display of better quality, change the aspect ratio, looking at Apple, make two versions, mini and maxi. The gadget already has its own face, its own unique features, so you need to copy the general approach. You look, and it will turn out to take some prominent place in the tablet market - by the way, in Russia many people love such Sony devices, they buy them almost in the first days of sales.

In conclusion, I can say one thing, Z2 has become better. If you need a brighter screen, pen support, then you should look towards Samsung. If you just need a good tablet, it's better to buy an iPad. Well, if you are a fan of Sony, then it is worth buying Z2, despite the price and shortcomings.

The line of tablet PCs from Sony today replenished with a new device - the Sony Xperia Tablet Z2 tablet was presented to the world in Barcelona at the MWC exhibition. Last year, the company made waves in the world of 10-inch tablets with the release of its Tablet Z, a dust and moisture resistant device that has become one of the thinnest and most productive gadgets. And now we see a new device that has become even thinner, lighter and more productive, and even running Android 4.4! It's even been announced.

Design

And so, as already mentioned, the receiver has become lighter and thinner - its dimensions are 172 x 266 x 6.4 mm at 439 grams in the LTE version and only 426 grams of the Wi-Fi model, while the Xperia Tablet Z weighs 495 grams and its thickness is 6.9 mm. Thus, the new tablet is the lightest and thinnest 10-inch tablet on the market!

The OmniBalance design gave the body of the device a chic look and recognition - all lines, all edges, everything in the appearance of the gadget is admirable. Not without the use of noble materials - metal and glass, of which the case actually consists.

Xperia Tablet ScreenZ2

The entire front part is occupied by a 10-inch Full HD TRILUMINOS display with an IPS matrix, which guarantees excellent viewing angles, bright and rich colors. Thanks to the introduction of a completely new Live Color LED technology, the screen has increased the depth of colors and shades. On a screen with a resolution of 1920 x 1200, you can comfortably work, watch movies, play modern games and get a lot of pleasure from using this tablet. Of course, there is also Sony's proprietary X-Reality technology for mobile devices, which makes the picture even clearer and more detailed.

Hardware (processor and memory specifications)XperiaTabletZ2

As we remember, the previous model Xperia Tablet Z was equipped with a Snapdragon S4 Pro processor, which provided already excellent performance. The Tablet Z2 also has a new Qualcomm Snapdragon 801 quad-core processor operating at a frequency of 2.3 GHz, which is several times faster than its predecessor! Adreno 330 is responsible for the graphics - a well-proven chip. As for memory, the RAM is 2 GB, but the internal volume depends on the tablet model: 16 and 32 GB models with Wi-Fi and 16 GB LTE model.

And they didn’t forget about the camera, and about the speakers too

If you think that you can’t take good pictures on a tablet, then you are a little mistaken. The Sony Xperia Tablet Z2 has an 8-megapixel Exmor RS sensor, which is used in many mobile devices in the line. Of course, the tablet camera application does not have such an abundance of settings and applications as in smartphones, however, 36 scenes in automatic mode will be more than enough to use the tablet to take a good photo on it. You'll be using the tablet mostly for social interaction, though, so its front-facing 2-megapixel HD camera is also based on an Exmor RS sensor for excellent image quality even in low light.

Thanks to Sony S-Force Surround technology, the sound of external speakers has become even more voluminous and clearer. By the way, now there are 4 of them! Also, the best sound is provided by Clear Audio technologies - Clear Stereo, Clear Bass and Clear Phase, as well as a noise reduction circuit.

Battery and runtimeTabletZ2

A 6000 mAh battery is responsible for the battery life of the new tablet, and this parameter cannot be called the highest for a 10-inch Android tablet. There is no official data regarding the operating time of the gadget, but the manufacturer said that it can easily last 10 hours in video playback mode and about 100 hours in music playback mode. By the way, the chip from Qualcomm has support for Quick Charge 2.0 technology, which allows you to charge the device faster by as much as 75%.

In contact with

Tablets had no future until Apple announced them loudly. Since then, a lot of water has flowed under the bridge, but no matter what tablet comes out, one way or another, sooner or later it is still compared to the iPad. Our test subject is compared with the iPad Air for a reason. It was the “air” tablet that was called the lightest and most elegant before the advent of the Sony Xperia Tablet Z2. We now have a huge 10.1-inch water and dust resistant tablet on our hands that deserves the title of the thinnest and lightest tablet in existence. Impressive?

The Sony Xperia Tablet Z1 was voted the best tablet in Europe. It's not a very sour start. The bar was set high from the start. Girls filmed reviews about him in the bathroom, men bathed him in the Dnieper, in general, everyone liked him. Although there was something to complain about - the rigidity of the device, for example, left much to be desired. And at IFA 2014 in Barcelona, ​​they presented the continuation of this beauty, calling it simply the Sony Xperia Tablet Z2. And what did they get?

Design and ergonomics

The tablet at first glance resembles a plasma TV, the perfect size if you're going to carry it in your backpack. Or a thin university notebook for all subjects. It is almost A4 format and is easily lost among papers, folders and books. I especially like the fact that despite the dominance of tablets on the market, the Tab Z2 is not like any of them. It is strict, conservative, straight lines, sharp corners, ideally combined with the flagship.

Thin, light and elegant - I never get tired of repeating it, it seems, never. Because everyone who has ever picked up a tablet was very surprised that it weighs practically nothing. It seems that the Japanese were inspired by a sheet of paper.

There is something to see here. The edges are strewn with a variety of ports, connectors and buttons. Above are two plugs. Under the first long are slots for a micro-SIM card and microSD, under the second - a slot for microUSB. Actually, these are the two topics that must always be kept dry, otherwise the tablet will simply stop working.

Nothing was placed on the right side, and on the bottom there are sensors for connecting a docking station and an audio jack.

On the left side there is a volume rocker and a small lock button. Since there was no double-tap unlock function, get used to its diminutiveness and location. This is not as difficult as it might seem at first glance.

The front part is completely covered with protective tempered glass, and the back part is covered with soft-touch plastic that is pleasant to the touch. He has a plus and a minus. Plus - tactile sensations. Pleasant and grippy. Minus - mark. Very brand. And to wipe it off, you need to make a lot of effort.

Sony logos are located on the lid, Xperia logos below, and in the upper corner there is an 8.1 MP main camera eye and an NFC icon below it.

On the top frame around the display is the company logo, a 2.2 MP front camera and an event indicator.

You understand that such a bandura will not fit into a small handbag. You can't stuff it into a clutch with any magic. So your girl who appreciates mobility, small handbags and small dogs may not like this tablet and will lie on the bedside table. For everyone else who does not worry and walks with a backpack and a larger bag, the tablet will be convenient to use. Due to the parameters, it fits perfectly in the laptop compartment instead of a laptop, and it also weighs two, or even three to four times lighter than your laptop. And due to the parameters and the “smart” keyboard, the Sony Xperia Tab Z2 can easily replace it, unless, of course, you are going to download it as a gaming laptop. As a non-tablet fan, I can say with confidence that a 10-inch device as an intermediate between a smartphone and a computer is the most logical way to use a tablet.

Display

At first glance, the screen seems very cool. 10.1 inch TRILUMINOS IPS capacitive display with excellent oleophobic coating. And then you find out that it also has a glossy finish. And that its resolution is rather strange - 1920 x 1200. And that the maximum brightness in the sun is not comfortable enough. That is, the text is readable, but when we shot a video review, nothing was visible through the lens.

But indoors, the display has good viewing angles, the brightness is sufficient, the richness and contrast of the picture are at a decent level. Sitting in a room with normal lighting, watching a movie on such a display is a thrill. The only thing is that at an angle the white color turns slightly pink, at a different angle it turns a little yellow - that's how unpredictable it is.

Huge at first glance, the frames are actually the perfect size if you still use the tablet, and did not buy it so that it stands beautifully in the docking station. Such a large tablet is hardly purchased for mobility, rather for practicality. Therefore, frames are needed so that there is where to put your hands. With such a width, the tablet is convenient to manage in both horizontal and vertical orientations. The virtual buttons just “eat up” part of the display… And thanks to the black fields, the tablet can resemble a photo frame. But this is definitely a subjective question.

But there is definitely one advantage over the previous tablet - the Sony Tablet Z2 does not have films! That is, the developers have finally come to the realization of the fact that the protective glass does not need branded protective films that you just can’t take off, even if you really want to. Excellent tempered glass with oleophobic coating. This is beauty! For working with texts, surfing the Internet and watching movies - ideal. But if you want to see something on the display in direct sunlight, then do not forget to take off your sunglasses, but rather look for a shadow.

cameras

There are two of them, and they are quite good quality. Unless you have a bad habit of comparing smartphone and tablet cameras. The main camera received 8.1 MP and a bunch of useful and not very software. The camera can shoot panoramas, HDR photos and videos, conduct multi-series shooting, has an 8x digital zoom and LED backlight. The shots are of very good quality, but there will be problems with detailing. And even with artificial or insufficient lighting, the resulting image will not delight you.

There are already nine shooting modes in the menu: super auto, manual settings, background defocus, fabulous effects, art, timeshift butst (when you have the opportunity to choose the best shot taken before and after pressing the shutter), social life (for people who constantly post photos on Facebook and want to share them with friends there), a panoramic view and evernote, with which photos can be saved to your account.

There is no separate button to launch the camera, but this function is available from the unlock screen. In the lower left corner you will find a small menu where you can select the resolution and shooting ratio. Above it is the icon for switching to the front camera, which received 2.2 MP. Do not expect anything supernatural from her. There is a face “cleansing” function, which is usually called “smoothing”.

The main problem that I personally have with cameras is the size of the tablet. It’s very inconvenient to take pictures with such a huge tablet. It is at this moment that it seems that the tablet is bulky, it turns out that at the concert you close the view to everyone, and they look at you in surprise and condemnation. If two aspects - convenience and the attitude of others - do not soar you, then feel free to photograph everything in a row.

Sound

The speakers are well placed. They are small, the first time I did not find them, it seems that the sound comes from somewhere inside. In fact, these are two short stereo speakers that are located at the bottom of the display.

But given the fact that when watching a video you hold the tablet with both hands, most often I turned the tablet over, and the speakers were located on top of my fingers. The volume is adequate, the clarity is average, and in general, if you forgot your headphones at home and want to watch a series with sound, the sound of the speakers will not disappoint you. In nature or in places of rest it will be heard well.

Specifications

The tablet received mega-progressive technical characteristics, like a flying saucer. Qualcomm Snapdragon MSM8974-AB Qualcomm Snapdragon MSM8974-AB quad core 2.3GHz, Adreno 330 graphics, 3GB RAM. In tests, the tablet is ahead of the rest, and you hope for this when you pay such money for such iron. All toys go at maximum settings, everything looks beautiful. The interface is responsive, the animations are smooth, and everything looks nice enough. And in general, well, what to say if everything is fine? At maximum loads, the tablet still heats up, a little closer to the left edge in the center. And so, yes, the speed of the device is cool. These are the great advantages of the device. The tablet does not slow down and flies straight.

Software

The device runs Android 4.4 KitKat. Firmware from Sony is always an amateur. Appearance with flying waves, ooh The opinion is subjective, personal, there are people who like this whole appearance. But! I repeat not for the first time - the number of programs pre-installed on the go is such that with the devices of this company I spend the least time in the Play Market.

All popular social networks are here at once, a folder with tools, branded navigation, news from Sociallife, SonySelect and Whats New, where the company recommends interesting applications, TrackID, remote control of home appliances via infrared, Smart Connect, which helps connect the tablet and devices with one touch. In general, a lot of useful things, but also a lot of all sorts of nonsense that clogs the device's memory. And on a 16 GB tablet, about 11 GB is available on the go. There is also a 32 GB version. Whichever option you choose, there's always the option to install a microSD up to 64GB.

Protection

This has become a good tone for flagship devices. And if once protection against water and dust was perceived as something that adds big pluses to the device, now it is so in the order of things that the absence of a function causes indignation and bewilderment. The case is protected from water and dust according to IP 55/58 standards. That is, you can easily wallow on a sandy beach near a river or pool without fear of grains of sand.

And if you want to swim with a tablet, then you can do this for 30 minutes in fresh water at a depth of up to 1.5 meters, and only if all the plugs are closed. There are only two of them, so take the trouble to check that they are tightly sealed. Otherwise, no warranty will save the device.

Tablets have become a part of modern life. But choosing a good gadget is problematic. Manufacturers annually release a variety of phones and tablets that can attract one or another characteristic. For example, today we have to get acquainted with the Sony Tablet. Reviews about this device, review and characteristics will be presented to your attention. Should I pay attention to this device? How can it pleasantly surprise users?
