We have heard rumors that the Sony Xperia Z2 Tablet would be making its way to Verizon. All rumors and leaks can now be tossed aside as Verizon has announced that they will offer up pre-orders for the new water-resistant behemoth starting tomorrow, July 10th.
There is a lot to love about this monster. The 1920 x 1200 resolution display with Sony’s TRILUMINOS and X-Reality engine is a pretty great place to start. Toss in a quad-core 2.3 GHZ Qualcomm processor, 3GB of RAM, 32 GB internal storage, micro SD card support and a 6000 mAh battery just to name a few. We can’t forget to mention that it is also IP55 and IP58 rated. Which means it is water-resistant and dust-proof. Yes, that means you can safely watch movies in the tub, pool side or even in the shower if you do so desire. The Xperia Z2 Tablet also has a 8.1MP rear camera and a 2.23MP front shooter.
As a bonus, if you order one you also get 90 days of free streaming music though Sony’s Music Unlimited service, 6 pre-selected movie download through Sony’s Video Unlimited and an exclusive early access pass to  The Amazing Spider-Man 2 when it becomes available for digital download.
Hold on to your britches though, all of this will cost you a pretty penny, as one would expect. Verizon will be officially selling the tablet for $599.99. Ouch. However, for a limited time you can get it for $499.99 with a new two-year contract. If you pre-order it then Verizon will also through in a Digital Noise Cancelling Headset, the MDRNC31EM, for free. (while supplies last). If you want to hold off until it is in stores, then you will have to wait until July 17th.
Anyone considering this bad boy?
