hello this is Sam with the birch at Mobile World Congress 2015 and we're at Sony's booth and the big announcement this year is the experienced Zed for tablet does that for is super thin it's 6.1 millimeters thick which is about the same as the iPad air 2 and or they say they no longer makes laptops it's old the bio division off its positioning this is a bit more of a Productivity device this keyboard comes in and you can start it in here and you have what is a reasonable facsimile of a laptop when it's closed it's a pretty big smart thing the the keyboard is not amazing the keys do you feel a bit Hollow and a lot of them are smaller than I'd like and it does have a bit of a cheap feel but at the same time it does basically work and it's certainly a better typing experience than you get on a tablet or you know computing box out there already and so yeah this is definitely being sort of pitched as a Productivity focused Android device the screen is really good it's a 2k display which is 26 2560 x 1600 super bright and sharp sony says the battery life should be pretty impressive with a six thousand milliamp hour battery one thing about the Zed for tablet is it's actually some way off release it's not coming out until June and we don't have pricing information just yet but some what we can see here if you're in the market for an Android tablet this does look like a pretty good option I mean the question there is whether you are in the market for an Android tablet because Android tablets and iPads alike have been sort of not setting the world on fire or a plate but if this is the kind of thing you're after I think that may make you happy so aside from the zero tablet Sony's phone announcement of this show is the Xperia m4 aqua which is it's kind of a mid-range device but it's designed to take a lot of the design features from the flagship experience at 3:00 and put it into a more affordable price point this is going to retail for around 300 euros and I think for that it's it's a pretty impressive offering the build is very solid it looks very much like one of Sony's more premium phones even though it is made of plastic the screen is 5 inches and 720p so it's not the highest resolution out there but in terms of color reproduction and viewing angles and stuff it's it's pretty good the phone is also waterproof as with the tablet and a lot of other Sony products these days sony is also touting the cameras on this device there it's a 13 megapixel shooter on the rear and a 5 megapixel wide-angle selfie camera on the front as ever the crazy lighting of a show floor is probably not the best place to be during to many conclusions about the cameras performance but they're definitely making it a feature of the firm so yeah well at all as a device for this grace guys I think this looks like a pretty solid effort obviously there are companies like Motorola that will undercut them on here Christ but it's only the same with this devices to kind of give some of that premium DNA in a lower price point and this seems like a pretty good a pretty successful effort to fulfill that mandate so yeah the Sony Xperia m4 aqua at Mobile World Congress
