Hello

I was thinking of buying a used Sony Z as a second tablet for travel but have a few concerns and wondered if someone could help me out:

1. Screen colour looked a bit odd to me when i saw it in stores - rather too yellow - has this been sorted out by firmware updates?
2. The tablet also seemed a bit laggy compared to an iPad 4 - for example when using Sony's UI - is that still the case?
3. Do you think Sony will continue to support upgrades past 4.4? Not sure about its track record there.
4. How is the battery life and is it a slow tablet to charge in real life? I think I read somewhere about the battery depleting while it was in use and charging

Thanks in advance!
