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
Fast and responsive
Tabletfriendly tweaks to Android are good overall
Tabbed Web browser with Flash Player support
Easy to share videos and other files with your computers
Blazing fast
PC-like functionality

WiFi only or WFi3G models
Easy to use Android Honeycomb software

Fits in hands quite nicely
Good camera for both video and still photos
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

The 10.1-inch Motorola Xoom is the first tablet to run Google's Android 3.0 Honeycomb software. Despite being first, it feels fun and polished, and it will be even better when more big-screen apps arrive....
Android 3.0, build quality good, acceptable camera performance, the novelty of being the first Honeycomb tablet
Honeycomb doesn't feel quite ready, microSD card not supported, Motorola don't bring anything extra from a software point of view
We can't really fault Motorola's hardware and the Honeycomb experience is far superior to Android tablets we've seen so far, but it's clear that the software isn't that stable, the price is high, not all features are supported and the Android Market ne...
Abstract: Weighing 601g the iPad is easy to hold with one hand, but still feels comfier when you use two. However its the depth that really impresses, measuring just 8.8mm deep, it’s slimmer than an iPhone 4 and all-in-all is a stunning piece of design. Wei...
The virtual buttons in the bottom left, apps in the top right, and combination of widgets and icons in multiple screens all point to a device that trades instant accessibility for wider customisation features and increased functionality; this is somet...

The best word to describe Jelly Bean on the Xoom is “consistent.” The look and feel of the operating system is consistent with its look and feel on the Nexus 7 and the Galaxy Nexus, giving us a glimpse of a world where Google had iOS-like control over all...
