While as the longy name put up by Sony the Z3 Compact Tablet but a not so impressive technology inside it.

Z3 Compact Tablet as the name suggest is compacted by this time only in the screen size.From a 10" display to an 8" but again a lesser resolutions. But as far as the competitions the Nexus 7 (2013) as well as iPad Mini are both way ahead of the Z3 and offer much better specs.

But nothing much can be said now until the main factor that is the price at which it is going to come out will be the deciding point of this tablet. By looking at all the features and specs this doesn't look cheap.
