#2 – Sony Xperia Tablet Z

Sony’s latest smartphones are enjoying a lot of praise from critics, and now it appears Sony has taken the same recipe and applied it to their tablets. Xperia Tablet Z looks sleek and features powerful components. The tablet is very slim and light, especially when you take into account its gorgeous high-res 10.1-inch display – the biggest on our list. It also packs a 1080p front-facing camera and an 8.1-megapixel rear camera.

Tablet Z is waterproof as well, which will put your mind at ease a little bit. Sure, you can’t throw it in the pool, but you won’t have to worry about any accidental spills. If you’re Android fan Sony’s Xperia Tablet Z is currently the best buy (approx. US$419 / £319).
