Sony Xperia tablet leaked with images and specifications

Sony’s next tablet, presumably a successor to the Sony Tablet S has been leaked online ahead of its launch. The tablet, dubbed as the Sony Tablet SGPT1211, is expected to launch around Christmas and has passed the US FCC approval.

A slideshow of the forthcoming tablet was published by XDA-Developers forum member qsp, who claims to work for Sony. The slideshow was posted on a German site Mobiflip, which hints the device will sport the 'Xperia' brand.

The rumoured Xperia tablet is likely to come with a Nvidia Tegra 3 processor, 8MP rear facing camera and a 1MP front facing camera for video chatting, a 6,000 mAh battery and a magnesium-aluminium alloy body. The weight of the device is 570 grams.

Pricing details too were revealed on the forum. The device is available in 16GB, 32GB and 64GB priced at $399.99 (Rs. 22,300 approx.), $499.99 (Rs. 27,900 approx.) and $599.99 (Rs. 33,500 approx.).

The device is expected to run on Google’s Android 4.0 ICS. The Sony Tablet SGPT1211 also supports a 9.4-inch display with a resolution of 1200x800. Sony will also bring its TrueBlack technology on the device to minimize glare and improve the representation of colour on the display. In the past, Sony has brought its Bravia technology to the smartphones enhancing the quality of their displays.

The new tablet is also expected to support Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 3.0, and expandable memory via a microSD card slot, HDMI-out and 3G connectivity.

If you look at the leaked images of the device, it is very easy to mistake the device for a Windows 8 tablet, as the form factor of the device is very slim and just like Microsoft’s Windows 8 tablet. Its image also shows off a slide out keyboard on a stand just like Microsoft’s Windows 8 devices.

The Sony Tablet SGPT1211 is expected to be announced in September and may be available on store shelves around Christmas. Check out the slideshow of the device at the source link, below:

Micromax's 5-inch smartphone, the Canvas 2 A110 that ran on Android 4.0 ICS since its launch in October, will receive the 4.1 Jelly Bean update next week. Micromax Canvas2 A110 A lot of budget smartphone manufacturers have promised us an OS update on their Android devices and rarely have they delivered. Today, we have the news that the Micromax Canvas 2 A110 will receive the Android 4.1 Jelly Bean update as early as next week. The device was launched in October 2012 and ran on Android 4.0 ICS straight out of the box. There is one downside to this update. It will not be available to users OTA or via the PC. Users will have to go to a Micromax service center to update their device. What remains to be seen is whether it is worth the effort for a user to go to the Micromax store just to update the phone’s OS. “This will not be an OTA update. Users will have to go to Micromax-authorised service centres to get the update. Currently, we are conducting tests on the Jelly Bea...
