Sony Tablet S - Finally Showing Sign of Selling in Malaysia


Talking about late, Sony finally announces registration of interest in Malaysia. Sony initially announces the Tablet S way back in April 2011. Eventually it gets pre-ordering started in the US sometime in Sept 2011.


It comes only in 2 models, 16GB and 32GB. Both only WiFi models. Take a look at the price again, it is the exact price of the iPad 2 with similar capacities. By pre-ordering, you will get a slip case worth RM139. Nevertheless, the shipment for pre-ordering will only start by 28th Feb 2012. A quick check on the Sony US store, both the models are having $100 discount which brings the 16GB price to $399.99 and 32GB price to $499.99.





The Sony Tablet S features a 9.4-inch display with 1280 x 800 screen resolution. It is be powered by the Android Honeycomb. Running on NVIDIA Tegra2 processor which has 1GHz speed and 1GB RAM. Units comes with 5MP rear camera but a much disappointing 0.3MP front camera. One feature worth noting is that Sony intends to control all Sony appliances with the built-in IR.

One thing is still missing, what happened to the Sony Tablet P, the ones which feature dual 5.5-inch display?
