  • The dualcore processor manages all the apps well, and that 8.2inch display offers vibrancy and brightness.
  • Onboard apps are disappointing; volume and power keys are fiddly to use.
  • The Motorola Xoom 2 really does justice to its ‘Media Edition' tag, offering the ability to stream films and music from your home PC or the net...

  • Gorgeously sharp screen, slimmer and lighter than original Xoom, fast dualcore processor,
  • Not cheap, no expandable memory
  • The Xoom 2 has a few notable improvements on the original Xoom, notably that it's slimmer and lighter, with an improved processor. But it's lost the ability to expand its memory and despite a good screen and decent camera, for the price, it's strugglin...

  • As big as a tablet can get and still fit in your pocket, 1.2GHz dualcore processor, excellent screen,
  • Relatively poor battery life
  • If you need the bigger screen, the Motorola Xoom 2 is a fine tablet. But if you want the same fast processor, with a sharper screen, at lower cost, in a (just about) pocketable case, then the Xoom 2 Media Edition is the one for you.SpecificationsSoftwa...

  • Size, power, design, screen, IR transmitter is actually useful
  • Lower battery capacity, occasional Wi-Fi woes, no microSD slot
  • The lack of microSD socket is annoying, but we love the style and weight of the Xoom Media Edition. ...

  • The Motorola Xoom 2 is one of the best Android tablets currently available — it's stylish, well made and packs a performance punch. It's not without its foibles and the specification changes from the previous model don't make much sense, but it's still...

  • Portable, good screen, HDMI output, Motocast can come in handy
  • Not shipped with Android Ice Cream Sandwich, poor battery life, no 3G or microSD card support, Rating:
  • A portable Android Honeycomb 3.2 tablet from Motorola that offers reasonable performance. We prefer this device to the larger 10in Xoom 2, but it is still not quite good enough to tempt us away from the iPad 2....

  • Clear screen, Portable size, Enough power for most tasks
  • Outdated version of Android, Reliance on computer software for file transfer, Lack of expandable SD cards
  • The Xoom 2 Media Edition is a smaller, more portable version of the Xoom 2. We like the slimmed-down dimensions and the clear screen, but it isn't running Ice Cream Sandwich, which won't please hardcore Android fans....

  Published: 2012-01-17, review by: theregister.co.uk

  • The combination of a small, tough and light body and a 8.2in 800 x 1280 screen results in a fine little tablet. The display is pin sharp for gaming, viewing video or images, while the shape and weight make it an excellent e-book reader. It may not be...

  • In all, the Motorola Xoom 2 Media Edition is a competent tablet. It’s attractive and quick, the screen quality is good and there are some useful added extras. Its slenderness and light weight means it’s more portable than any 10in tablet, and for our m...
