Xperia Z3 Tablet Compact Is Slim, Stylish

Stainless steel corners, an ultraslim rounded frame and a tempered glass front provide Sony’s typical elegant and durable finish. The tablet is available in either white or black, and the IP65/68 rating means you won’t have to worry about water or dust getting in the way of performance. The device is powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 801 Quad-core 2.5GHz processor with 3GB RAM.

Plenty of Reasons to Play

The PlayStationApp lets you use the tablet as a second screen to remotely watch the game play of your game friends, communicate with PSN friends, purchase PS4 games and download to PS4, or simply control your PS4.

Not Just Fun and Games

Sony put some thought into productivity with this tablet, allowing users to work from anywhere with the Xperia Email, Calendar and Contacts apps, which can be synced using Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync (EAS), and users can also download business apps from the Android community. With near-field communication (NFC) compatibility, it’s also possible to connect devices and share with more than 160 one-touch devices.

Xperia E3 Boasts Dual SIM Variant, 4G LTE Capability

The corners on Xperia E3 are designed to prevent scratches in case of an unexpected bump and are teamed with a scratch-resistant screen made of durable tempered glass. Sony’s dual-SIM management technology means that users can keep both SIMs active and never miss a call, even when talking on one of them.

A Camera-Ready Smartphone

The Xperia E3 features the Qualcomm Snapdragon 400 processor with quad-core 1.2GHz CPUs and 4G LTE capabilities, a 4.5-inch display with a wide viewing angle, and a 5 megapixel camera with HDR, which allows users to capture photos even with backlight and to record HD videos. In selected markets, the E3 will come with an entertainment package, including a 30-day premium subscription trial of Sony’s Music Unlimited cloud-based digital music service.

Xperia Z3 Is an Audio Powerhouse

For those tracks that aren’t in high-res quality, Sony’s DSEE HX technology, available now for the first time in the Z3 series, upscales the fidelity of MP3 or AAC music collection as well as playlists on Sony’s cloud-based digital music service, Music Unlimited, to near-high-resolution quality.

Xperia Z3 Offers a Standout Camera

When shooting video, Sony’s new SteadyShot technology with Intelligent Active Mode compensates for your movements, analyzing dozens of backward and forward frames to predict your next steps and make panning smoother and images more stable. Plus, you can now fit more into every shot with the new 25mm wide-angle Sony G Lens.

Xperia Z3 Compact Features Ultraslim Design

The Z3’s smaller brother pushes the capabilities of power to give you a battery life of up to two days. Users can squeeze even more juice from the battery with Sony’s Battery Stamina Mode, which turns off background functions when you’re not using them.

Android Wear Powers Sony’s SmartWatch 3

The SmartWatch 3 offers significant steps up from SmartWatch 2, including a 1.6-inch LCD Transflective display for visibility in bright sunlight, set within a stainless steel back panel, built-in 4GB local memory, built-in microphone, and Accelerometer, Compass, Gyro and GPS sensor technology. It is waterproof, rated IP683 and charges with a standard microUSB port.

Smartband Talk Keeps Track of Calls, Life

With its built-in microphone and speaker, SmartBand Talk comes with a short call function, so you can talk into it and hear your caller, with HD Voice support. A built-in accelerometer and altimeter sensor technology feels how you move, and how much, to provide an overview of your daily physical activity.
