The Design
The Xperia Z4, to an extent, looks like its predecessors in the Sony Xperia Z series. But it is slimmer at just 6.1 mm, compared to the then impressive 6.4 mm thinness of the Xperia Z3 Tablet Compact.
The new tablet is equally very light at less than 400 grams, with its maker describing it as “the lightweight champion” in its class. Sony Xperia Z4 Tablet has an elegant, smooth frame.
The slate features an angular design with the contoured edging Sony has come to be known for as well as a matte polycarbonate back panel. The bezel around the screen ensures a compact tablet seemingly built to rival iPad Air.
Display and Cameras
Sony Xperia Z4 Tablet is fitted with a 10.1-inch IPS display with an enhanced resolution of 2560 x 1600 pixels and a pixel density of 300ppi. The screen uses the same technologies as can be found on Sony TVs, making for better colour and contrast.
The 2K display is brighter and gives off vivid colours to ensure best viewing experience. You should expect crispy clear views on the tablet.
There is an 8.1 megapixels rear camera and 5.1 megapixels front-facing camera.
Performance
