Sony Tablet S OverView - YouTube

Shaped like a folded over magazine, Sony's Tablet S is maybe the weirdest looking tablet we've ever seen. But it's also the most comfortable.

The 9.4-inch, 1280x800 screen is quite good—less reflective than most—but it's a bit dim. It also comes with a 5MP rear camera.

It comes preinstalled with Android honeycomb.

Speed on the Tab S is a mixed-bag. When you first boot it up it's easily among the fastest of the Android tablets. Scrolling is smooth, and even complex HD games play very nicely. But once it's been running for a while and you've opened a bunch of applications, things really start slowing down. There were also some strange anomalies, where email wouldn't always sync in realtime. Sometimes the screen would rotate the wrong way, or take a while to catch up. Again, these seem to be more Honeycomb related.

Equipped with a 1GHzdual core processor, 1GB of RAM, WIFI, it starts at a base price of just $499.
