Excellent design for onehanded use, Excellent software services, and good potential for future services, A solid lineup of unique features that make this tablet different from all other tablets, like an IR sensor and universal remote app
Technology is dated, and was dated when first released, The glass is too abrasive, and isn't slick enough for consistent use, especially for gaming, Some services, like the Playstation Store, are good concepts but still very shallow
The most comfortable tablet on the market. The Tablet S is most like the tablet we envisioned when ...

Abstract: Sony's two tablets, the S and the P, have both been around for a while now. Both are quite different takes on the standard tablet fare, with the P being the one sitting furthest from the mainstream. I've been living with them for a few weeks.Of the two de...
Abstract: DesignAs I said before this design is one to surely stand out in a lineup of tablets. It has a wedge shaped design, giving it a very distinct futuristic look and does a great job when placed on a table. The forward slant takes a great bite out of glare an...

Abstract: It's no secret that tablet makers are having a hard time competing with Apple in this still nascent market. In fact, the iPad is selling so well that it surpassed the number of PCs shipped by any individual PC manufacturer over the last quarter of 2011 --...

Great ergonomic design, Excellent Sony Entertainment and PlayStation features, Fullsized SD card slot
Build heavy on plastic, A bit buggy, Lousy speakers
With the Tablet S, Sony provides a fine example for other Android tablet makers to follow. The Tablet S has a very different, but still innovative design from the iPad and other thin, large-screen tablets, and it has some great proprietary features and s...
Unique design is comfortable to hold, looks snazzy, Bright and vibrant screen, Universal remote is awesome, PlayStation Certification has the potential to be awesome
Expensive for what you're getting, Keyboard didn't always keep up with our keystrokes, particularly when typing in a Web address, Below average performance, Sony services don't mesh well together
So the Tablet S isn't going to win any benchmarking bragging rights, and there are some quirks to deal with. But in terms of usability, the Tablet S isn't a wash. Web browsing is excellent with pinch-to-zoom performance that's smooth and fast, which is so...

Smart, elegant design, Comfortable in the hand, Great Playstation gameplay performance,
Super sluggish scrolling, pinchtozoom, Difficult to get comfortable in portrait, Drops Wifi connection more often than I’m OK with
The Sony Tablet S has a lot going for it in terms of design. I love the folded-over look, and think its much more comfortable during use and in the hand. The 10-inch form factor has always been a tad big for me, but anyone who appreciates the size of a...
The pricier Sony tablet is not really offering that much to the table. You will indeed get a bigger screen with the Tablet S, but for a US$100 price difference, it might not be worth it for some. The approach Sony took on the Tablet S form factor is uni...
