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
And with the latest version – Honeycomb – in place
It's also a step up from other tablets. Honeycomb looks attractive and cohesive

The Tegra 2 processor and 1GB DDR2 RAM allow for a much faster
Enjoyable experience
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
Higher performance that the iPad 2; better cameras,
Honeycomb's sophistication means a steeper learning curve.
Not only is the Xoom faster than the iPad 2, but it's also a lot more personal thanks to its widgets and an OS that's highly customisable. The Android platform has been a slow-burning work in progress for far too long, but the employment of Honeycomb h...
Despite the weight, despite the price, despite everything, the Motorola Xoom has the power to move me. It feels so solid and performs so reliably that I increasingly find myself using it in preference to my iPad 2 whenever Apple compatibility is not a...

So how do we rate the Motorola Xoom? Well, we like it. Even taking into consideration Android 3’s rough edges, occasional sluggish operation, and the lack of tablet-specific apps, it’s easily the best Android tablet so far, and for many people that wil...

A tablet that packs plenty of power plus a clever and intuitive Android Honeycomb operating system – however, it is lacking a decent choice of apps to download and needs an update to iron out quite a few glitches...
The Motorola Xoom is a solid feeling bit of hardware that unfortunately, feels a little unfinished. This is largely down to the many force closes we experienced and the scarcity of available apps – two things which we're sure will only improve with tim...
Abstract: Image Gallery: At 10.1 inches in a 16:9 aspect ratio, the XOOM is a tad longer than the iPad 2 and, at 13mm thick and 730g, a little chunkier too. That's in part thanks to a dual-core NVIDIA Tegra 2 processor clocked at 1GHz. It results in a tablet t...
The Motorola Xoom shows that the future is bright indeed for Android on tablets. If you’re an iOS hater with a slate predilection, you’ll love it, warts and all....
Android Honeycomb isn’t quite ready for prime time. It’s frustrating at times, and the optimised apps aren’t out in force yet.But it is ready for the sizeable army of people already willing to put up with cheap hardware and terrible UI just to avoid Ap...
