The VAIO brand is already preparing the launch of a cool phone and they also have some hardcore tablets coming, according to the latest speculation. The company is preparing a slate called VAIO Z Canvas, that’s said to be coming in May.

The product was only known as the “VAIO prototype tablet” for a while, but new details have surfaced today. It appears the product will also include a keyboard accessory in the mix and it resemble the Microsoft Surface in its usage pattern. The specs of the VAIO Z Canvas are said to include an Intel Core i7 processor, Intel Iris Pro graphics and a 12.3 inch screen.

The display will offer a 2560 x 1704 pixel resolution, 8 or 16 GB of RAM and probably a lot of SSD storage, up to 256 GB to be more precise. I expect the design to be pretty similar to the one of the Microsoft Surface and a stylus is also not out of the picture.
