The editors didn't like
720p display
Cumbersome overlay
Likely expensive
Screen lowres compared to others
Mediocre camera for the price (despite being a tablet)
Lower resolution is noticeable at times
Volume rockers could be more tactile and pronounced
Overpriced
Relatively weak Wi-Fi performance
Sony has filled the interface up with so much pre-loaded software that it looks cluttered before you've even downloaded your first app. Opting for a higher resolution display would help it compete against many of its rivals
Mediocre camera performance
More expensive than rivals
Camera is prone to over-heating
Some additional software is a little clunky
Plastic on the Compact isn't as nice as the metal on the Z3

Likely expensive, Screen low, res compared to others

Neat little movie tab, Waterproof, Great battery life, Expandable storage
You can get an iPad Mini 2 for £240, Not all Android apps are optimised, Sony pushes some services
Initial verdict Convincing people they need an Android tablet - let alone a premium one - is no easy task. But the Z3 Tablet Compact is a lovely thing. It's slim, light and feels well made. The screen looks brilliant despite "only" being Full HD. The wat...
Attractive, slim design, Excellent screen, Good battery life and fast-charging feature
Too much bloatware, Pricier than the Android competition
Sony Xperia Z3 Tablet Compact – Battery Life Despite its impressively thin frame, the Xperia Z3 Tablet Compact comes with a 4500 mAh battery that should prove roomy enough for most users to make it through an entire day without running out of juice. Durin...

The Sony Xperia Z3 Tablet Compact has everything going for it, but its too-premium price and fierce competition makes for a difficult recommendation....
