What customers like about Sony Xperia Z4 Tablet WiFi (3GB + 32GB)

  • Extremely thin (6.1mm) and lightweight (389g) design, making it highly portable and comfortable for long use.
  • Stunning 10.1-inch 2K display (2560x1600) with high brightness and accurate colors, ideal for HD video and gaming.
  • IP65/68 water and dust resistance, allowing for use in wet environments like near a pool or in the bath.
  • Capless micro-USB charging port that remains waterproof without needing a fiddly protective flap.
  • Strong performance with the Snapdragon 810 processor and 3GB of RAM, handling intensive 3D games and multitasking smoothly.
  • Excellent battery life, particularly for video playback and light tasks, with effective power-saving modes.
  • Supports PS4 Remote Play, allowing users to stream and play PlayStation games directly on the tablet.

What customers don't like about Sony Xperia Z4 Tablet WiFi (3GB + 32GB)

  • Cameras produce grainy and low-detail images, especially in low light, which is considered a letdown for a premium device.
  • The official Bluetooth keyboard accessory (BKB50) is often described as flimsy, cramped, and occasionally laggy.
  • High retail price at launch, especially when bundled with the keyboard, making it more expensive than some competitors.
  • The software includes non-removable bloatware and a user interface that some find less inspiring than stock Android.
  • The thin build allows for noticeable physical flex, which can make the device feel slightly fragile to some users.
  • The 16:10 aspect ratio, while great for movies, can feel ungainly for reading text-heavy websites in portrait mode.

Verdict

The Sony Xperia Z4 Tablet WiFi is a premium 10.1-inch Android device featuring a high-resolution 2K (2560 x 1600) Triluminos display and a powerful Qualcomm Snapdragon 810 octa-core processor paired with 3GB of RAM and 32GB of expandable storage. Its main characteristics include an ultra-slim 6.1mm profile, a remarkably light 392g chassis, and an IP65/68 waterproof rating that allows submersion in freshwater for up to 30 minutes. Notable pros include its stunning screen quality, impressive 6000mAh battery life capable of up to 17 hours of video playback, and unique features like PS4 Remote Play and high-resolution audio support. However, some users note drawbacks such as occasional overheating under heavy stress, a slow charging time, and a plastic-heavy build that feels less luxurious than metal competitors.
