Sleek and lightweight, yet incredibly powerful, with standout entertainment and smart productivity features, Xperia Z4 Tablet is an extraordinary tablet that fits perfectly into your day-to-day life."
The Xperia Z4 measures just 6.1mm slim and weighs around 393 grams. The device features one of the world's brightest 10.1-inch 2K displays with a resolution of 2560 x 1600 pixels. Under the hood, the Android 5.0 tablet is powered by a 2 GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon 810 64-bit Octa Core CPU, an Adreno 430 GPU, 3GB of RAM, and a 6000 mAh battery rated for up to 17 hours of video playback. An 8.1MP rear camera and a 5.1MP front camera are integrated as well. In addition, the Xperia Z4 is waterproof and includes front stereo speakers and LDAC support for high quality wireless music streaming.
