Articles about sony tablet

Before you get your hopes up let my just tell you this is a very short hands on video shot in Munich, Germany: it's only 18 seconds long and features the Sony S2 tablet. The other model, S1, was also present, but we only have a picture with it below in the article. Anyway, let's get back to the impressions from Sony's conference: apparently I was right when I've characterized the S2 dual screen tablet a glasses case when folded, as the same impression was expressed by those present at the event ...

Teasers are usually meant to make people notice a product, an idea, but don't give too much info about what's coming, creating the feeling of wanting to know more. Sony really did a great job with its latest teaser for the upcoming Sony S1 and S2 tablets, as cinematic is concerned, but also managed to avoid telling anything about what makes those tablets special, besides the off-center of gravity design for S1 and dual screens for S2.Hope Sony does have time to focus on the tablets themsel...

After yesterday's news about the dual screen Sony S2 tablet passing FCC tests, it's time for the bigger 9.4 inch brother, the Sony S1 tablet, to pass the same tests which means release date is imminent and the product can safely be sold in US. As with each early unit that goes through FCC there's little info known, so here's what we've found out about the Sony S1 Android tablet: there will be four models, SGPT111US/S, SGPT112US/S, SGPT111CA/S and SGPT112CA/S, presumably two for Canada and tw...

We had rumors about Sony's tablet intentions, but nothing official has surfaced, until now, when Sony announced two Android Honeycomb tablets for this year, simply called S1 and S2. Interestingly, rumors about those two date back a few months ago, when we were presented with the first sketches (here and here). It seems that the person leaking those sketches was indeed on to something, as Sony confirmed many of the things said back then.So let's get started with the S1 tablet, a 9.4 inch slat...

After the Sony S1 concept, the Playstation tablet, rumored for this year, it seems Sony has other interesting concepts in works for 2011, which rely heavily on hardware design to attract people. The two concepts I'm talking about were revealed to Engadget by trusted sources, according to them, and point towards a dual screen S2 tablet powered by Android Honeycomb and a 9.4 inch Windows 7 slider tablet, similar to Sony's older Vaio UX micro-laptop.Now let's see the details for each of those. ...

Sony is one of the companies who haven't managed to bring a tablet to market in 2010 and haven't announced one at CES and MWC consumer shows in the beginning of 2011. This doesn't mean Sony doesn't have a plan for this niche, it just means they don't have anything to show just yet, not even a prototype. Engadget got some rumors behind the scene with Sony's tablet, codenamed S1, a 9.4 inch form factor (strange screen diagonal but good 1280 x 800 pixels resolution), that puts a different spin on w...

....goes to Sony. How else would you characterize their official statement saying "We would really like to take the No. 2 position (in the tablet market) by 2012". Why is it bold? Well, could it be because Sony, even after one year since the launch of the iPad, wasn't able managed to launch their own tablet. That's why the press is skeptic about Sony's ability to deliver a good tablet, let alone conquering the market in less than one year.Of course you can argue that Sony was working on its ...

Sony is one of the big names of the IT industry that has yet to come up with an official tablet announcement. They told the press a while ago that they're watching closely the tablet market, but still no actual product was presented (or leaked for that matter). Today we know that Sony has filed a patent application for a dual screen tablet, called "electronic book with enhanced features". Don't jump from your chair: this doesn't necessarily that the patent will lead to an actual product, but you...

With more success comes even more hesitation, this seems to be the problem lately with big names in IT industry. Names like Sony are now scared of making a bold move before they have the certainty that it will work. That's a paradox, my friends, because if the IT industry taught us one thing, is that there's no way to know if and when something new works. Sony said a few months ago they're considering joining the touch tablet race, but had few data to confirm that customers are so much into tabl...

We've presented the Sony Dash desk tablet concept this year and now it's time to take a look at the final device, that's shipping right now on Amazon for 199$.
