Verdict

The Sony Tablet S 3G is a distinctive 9.4-inch Android tablet featuring a unique 'folded magazine' ergonomic design, a 1280x800 TruBlack display, and mobile connectivity via a single SIM slot. Internally, this 16GB model is powered by an Nvidia Tegra 2 dual-core 1.0 GHz processor paired with 1GB of RAM, and it includes a 5MP rear camera, a 0.3MP front-facing lens, and a 5,000 mAh battery. Main pros include its comfortable, well-balanced grip for one-handed use, PlayStation certification for gaming, and the inclusion of a full-size SD card slot and infrared blaster for universal remote functionality. However, it suffers from a proprietary charging port, a display that lacks brightness for outdoor use, and a somewhat flimsy plastic build compared to contemporary metal-bodied rivals.
