Summary

I exhibit it to the public first on April 26, 2011. "S2" which became "S1" which became "Sony Tablet S" later and "Sony Tablet P" was shown. I assumed about the autumn of the same year a sale plan, and the effect of "I provide Tegra 2 to adoption "・" CPU in Android 3.0 was announced about the terminal specifications by the OS". In addition, the cooperation with other Sony products was announced, and founded Android company, and Andy Rubin who acted as the vice-president of Google attended at a press conference [³]; [⁴].

Announced the tablet terminal 2 model of "Sony Tablet P" which made much of "Sony Tablet S" which made much of the function of media contents on September 1, 2011 and mobile characteristics and communication characteristics, and entered the tablet business in earnest [⁵]; [⁶]. In the Japanese market, it was released with "Sony Tablet S" (Wi-Fi model) having been begun to sell on September 17 as a start throughout the world sequentially [⁷].

For the initial deployment OS Android3.1 ("Sony Tablet S" (Wi-Fi)) and Android3.2 (adopt "Sony Tablet S" (Wi-Fi+3G )・" Sony Tablet P). With both models, I adopt "Tegra 2" (1GHz) of the dual-core to a CPU [⁵].

Sony Tablet gave "the entertainment service of cooperation "・" plural with design "・" operation feeling, operability "・" other Sony devices" for a differentiation point with other tablet by a briefing session at the time of the sale [¹].

"The design" adopts a shape unlike the conventional tablet and the side is a wedge in "Sony Tablet S" and adopts "an overemphasis feeling design" narrowing in wide durability towards a bottom from the top [⁸]. In "Sony Tablet P," I adopted the design which I could fold with a top and bottom 2 screen in wide durability [⁹].

"A feeling of operation, the operability" adopts the "crunchy experience" technique that movement relieves. Various services of Sony, the cooperation with the AV apparatus were carried out, too [¹⁰].

The deployment [¹] of a function that "the cooperation with other Sony devices" connects the animation in the Sony tablet to bra beer in DLNA and reproduces and the remote-control function.

As for "the plural entertainment services," cooperation of Video Unlimited, Personal Space, PlayStation Certified, Reader Store was announced [¹].

Is equipped with Wi-Fi and a WAN function, and play a game of video, the Play Station suite on Web browsing and an email, an Internet browser; with various functions including the electronic book [¹¹].

At the time of development announcement of Sony Tablet and the release announcement, a favorite product of the iPad opposition of the precedent product and the company which reported it existed [¹²]; [¹³].

I announce the update to Android 4.0.3 on March 22, 2012 [¹⁴]. Corresponding to "the RECOPLA application" that offer update to Android4.0.3 from May 24, the same year, and start [¹⁵], and can apply correspondence of "the Small application" that is available by two application as original Extensions at the same time and the product made in Sony Blu-ray recorder [¹⁶].

The big characteristic is the thing that became led by a manufacturer like the case of main other companies. Therefore, in NTT DOCOMO which handled this product in Japan, I was placed as company's tablet series "docomo tablet" as another lineup. SIM lock of docomo is worn at the time of the sale. I can cancel it after a predetermined procedure about the SIM lock [¹⁷].

In "IFA 2012 held in Berlin, Germany on August 29, 2012," 9.4 type Android tablet "Xperia Tablet S" was announced. It was going to be released in the United States on September 7, 2012, and I would be unified by Xperia brand same as a smartphone of Sony and finished product development as "Sony Tablet" [¹⁸].

The one-year sale results were not sweet things. Reasons include performance lack at the time of the animation reproduction of Tegra 2 of the CPU which they adopted, the thickness by the circumstances in the design, the badness of the cooperation with the Sony product [¹⁹].
