The Sony Tablet S is the latest addition to the ever growing tablet market. It runs Android – as with most of its rivals – but gets a distinctive design to help it stand out. Is that enough in such a competitive market, however? Join us after the break...
Good Out of the two tablets Sony has recently launched – the Sony Tablet S1 and the Sony Tablet S2 – the S1 is the more conservative. There's no double screen, no clamshell design, just a regular single display. At 9.4 inches, it's a slightly unusual size, proving notably smaller than the 9.7-inch Apple iPad 2. The screen may be smaller, but it's also very sharp, with a resolution of 1280 x 800 pixels...
Bad Unfortunately, the Sony Tablet S1 doesn't offer the build quality we were hoping for. It's an entirely plastic affair, and feels a lot cheaper in the hands than an Apple iPad 2. It also feels cheaper than other tablets, such as the Samsung Galaxy Tab.
Bottom line Overall, the Sony Tablet S1 is a good tablet. The screen is a cracker, and it's a comfortable and well designed piece of kit. It's just a shame it feels so cheap – a factor that would make us think twice when there are so many other options on the mark...

Today we take a look at the Sony Tablet S, an Android Honeycomb (3.2) capable tablet which has impressive specifications and a design that sets it apart from the competition. Let's find out how Sony aim to change what we feel a tablet should be like wi...
Bottom line with build quality but in the case of Sony's Tablet S it really has to be the design. Rather than go with a very square, boxy chassis as most manufacturers do, Sony have clearly put thought into making their tablet different. Thankfully though it isn'...

As far as tablets go in terms of hardware, the Tablet S is a subpar model with only a couple bells and whistles worthy of note. Its screen performance is average at best, its battery is terrible, and there's very little if any advantage that it holds over...
