The editors liked
Higher performance that the iPad 2
Better cameras
The 10.1-inch screen features a 1280 x 800-pixel resolution
Which is more than sharp enough for viewing an entire web page without having to scroll to the side. It's also great for movies
Proving sharp and crisp. The Android operating system is a pleasure to use

The editors didn't like
Honeycomb's sophistication means a steeper learning curve.
The Motorola Xoom is an impressive tablet
With high-end specs to put other devices to shame. It also costs a lot of money
However
And it's currently hamstrung by poor app support for Android tablets.
Crowded widgets and small icons can lead to homescreen chaos
Speakers face backwards
Inconvenient proprietary charger
Good Honeycomb apps are currently hard to find
Software needs improvement
Just a handful of tablet apps available
Poor media performance
Pricey
Few tablet apps yet
Fiddly to hold
Expansion slot has issues
No Flash support - yet
It's expensive!
Honeycomb doesn't feel quite ready
MicroSD card not supported
Motorola don't bring anything extra from a software point of view
It's a tad premature and crashy
Frequent apps crashing
Lack of tabletspecific apps in Android Market plus there’s no filter to find them
Noncustomised interface means it may not be unique enough as the tablet market grows
Abstract: Product Round-up With Android 4 Ice Cream Sandwich upon us, it's a good time to take stock of the impact - or lack of it - of Android 3 Honeycomb and Nvidia's Tegra 2, the chipset and release of Google’s mobile OS that were hoped would knock the iPad o...
Abstract: Motorola's Xoom is the first Honeycomb-based tablet; but how does it fare against Apple's iPad 2? There's a lot to go over, from Google's new software platform to Nvidia's Tegra 2. Let's dig a little deeper to see how the tablet world is shaping up. In...
The Motorola Xoom weighs 730g – about the same as the first-generation iPad. Its 10.1-inch wide-screen display is quite bright. It supports up to 720p HD video.It looks quite similar in style to many tablets out there at the front, with a black, glass ...

All in all, the Motorola XOOM is a well built easy to use device that, when combined with Android Honeycomb, provides a wide range of features for your device and it looks great. Some features of Honeycomb were also present in previous versions of Andr...

The Motorola Xoom is an impressive tablet, with high-end specs to put other devices to shame. It also costs a lot of money, however, and it's currently hamstrung by poor app support for Android tablets.
The Motorola Xoom falls behind the Apple iPad 2 when it comes to app support – with far more apps offered for the iPad. However, the Xoom betters its rival in many ways when it comes to the hardware, and if you want a device to browse the web or watch ...
Overall the XOOM does a pretty decent job and although not perfect I believe it is a good first effort by Motorola. Would I recommend it over the Apple iPad.. No, i am afraid. There are two many downsides to the XOOM for my liking. I am sure that Andro...
The Motorola Xoom is a little tricky to judge. The battery life is surprisingly good and it doesn't cost any more than a comparable 32GB WiFi-only iPad 2. It's much heavier than Apple's tablet though and neither the Android 3.0 interface or the Android...
