Sony announced its S1 and S2 Android tablets at the end of April. Sony Tablet S is an Android tablet running Google Android 3.1 Honeycomb mobile operating system. The Android tablet measures 9.5 x 6.8 x 0.3 inches and weights 5oz. Tablet S is powered by a NVIDIA Tegra 2 dual-core processor, and comes with 1GB RAM, built-in 16GB storage capacity, 9.4-inch brilliant TruBlack display with 1280 x 800 pixels resolution 0.3-megapixel front-facing webcam, 5-megapixel rear camera and full-size SD card slot.
This Tablet S unique, for starters, is the tablet's tapered design, which grows from 0.3 inch at its thinnest edge to 0.79 inch at its deepest. The Tablet S eschews the usual flat-slab look. Sony says the design was influenced by the curve of a folded-around magazine.
Sony has the slimness of an Apple iPad 2 or a Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 in favor of something distinctively pleasing to hold.
The design offers two benefits: First, at the thicker side, the plastic curves around the edges, making the device comfortable to hold. Everything on the screen flips orientation based on the accelerometer, so you can hold the tablet just as comfortably in your right or left hand. Second, the wedge design provides a gentle incline for typing, making this tablet more natural to use than the flat slabs.
