I thought the Z1 tablet was thin and light, but this cranks it up a notch. It’s really lightweight – almost fly-away – and keeps the familiar Sony styling. It’s still waterproof and still has a lot of the characteristics of the original Z1 Tablet, but now there’s …
Last year I’ll confess that my favourite phone was the Xperia Z1. Now it’s back, and this time the camera is better, it’s slimmer and it’ll let you record 4K (3840×2160) video while you’re under water, if that’s your thing. It’s still got the style and IP58 waterproofing …
