Sony Xperia Tablet photos emerge, show likely release date

New photos which further reveal the look of the leaked Sony Xperia Tablet have hit the web. As expected, the slate does carry the unique "wedge" design of the Sony Tablet S, but does so in a thinner body.

The Xperia Tablet is going to rock a Magnesium-Aluminium body, thus helping to bring its weight to 570 grams. The 9.4-inch display with 1280x800-pixel resolution remains unchanged from the Tablet S.

We find a lot of other changes under the hood. The Xperia slate is said to rock Nvidia's Tegra 3 SoC, probably running at 1.3GHz. At the back, there's an 8MP snapper, while a 1MP unit takes care for video chatting at the front.

The Sony Xperia Tablet will come in 16/32/64GB variants, expandable via the microSD card slot. The battery is 6000mAh and will keep the slate going for 10 straight hours.

Expected to be unveiled at Sony's pre-IFA event on August 29 and launched later in September, the Xperia Tablet is said to cost $399.99, $499.99 and $599.99 for the 16GB, 32GB and 64GB model respectively.
