Japanese technology company Sony unveiled on Monday its Android-based 10.1-inch 'Xperia Tablet Z'.
With big-screen devices set to dominate the technology market this year, Sony is rolling out a slew of smartphones and tablets that boast massive displays and other high-end features. Couple of weeks ago, the company had unveiled its 5-inch Xperia Z smartphone at the international CES (Consumer Electronics Show).
Sony's all-new Xperia Tablet Z is touted as the world's slimmest 10-inch tablet in the industry. The device is more compressed than the 7.2 mm Apple iPad mini.

Xperia Tablet Z packs quite a punch with an advanced camera along with a faster processor and ample memory space.
Sony's previous release Xperia Tablet S was bit of a disappointment due its flawed water proof case. The tablet sales were temporarily stopped for additional scrutiny. The company had also recalled tablets to fix the manufacturing flaw.
Sony has confirmed that the new ultra-thin Xperia Tablet Z will be initially released in the Japanese market this spring. The tablet's price and date of availability in other markets remains undisclosed so far.
