Poor rear camera
User interface may be complicated for first time users
Tablet-specific applications are sparse
Proprietary charging cable
High price point
Has to be sent away to have LTE enabled.
Still a little buggy but so are all of my other gadgets
The lack of Android 3.0 apps but they will come and more are coming every week
Can't use microSD slot yet
Heavy and even more awkward to hold than an iPad (No biggie since I use it more in landsca
The software is not particularly stable or robust
Requires a proprietary power adapter and can't charge through microUSB
Users have to rely on the MTP protocol to manage media on the device
The built-in e-mail client has extremely poor protocol support
Display is just ok
Poor amount of designed for tablet apps atleast for the moment
Device occasionally freezes up.
The left out flash for a few weeks
I don't have it yet as of the time of this review going up
No 4g yet which was a big selling point
It can glitch
But nothing major at all
Do not think this is a big deal because it isn't
MicroSD slot not active - will require software update
No flash support yet
Won't charge via USB
Must send tablet to Motorola for 4G upgrade
No WiFi only version yet
Expensive
Programs often crashed
Dearth of apps in Android Market with no filter to see tablet-optimised ones
Lack of unique interface means it may not stand out in the soon-to-grow tablet market Look and Feel...
MicroSD slot isn't enabled
Yet
LTE upgrade requires sending the device to Motorola
Pricey compared to Android 3.0 tablets recently launched
Even with Verizon subsidy
No WiFionly model at launch
4G requires upgrade
Lackluster display
User interface seems overcomplicated at times. Flash support is only in beta mode

Must-have Honeycomb apps.

Images don't render properly in Gallery viewer
Heavy
At 1.6 pounds
Middling display
Video looked blocky
User interface seems overcomplicated at times. While promised in the future

Stability problems

Some user interface quirks
Poor speakers
The Motorola Xoom is thick and weighs 1.6 pounds.
Awkward To Hold In Portrait Mode
Many Applications Still Feel Like They Are Beta
LCD Panel Could Be Better
Android tablet apps still limited
Basic onscreen keyboard
Awkward app management in Honeycomb
Rearfacing speakers don’t do justice to any kind of audio. The button thing is weird. Honeycomb seems to have some bugs to work out. No support for Adobe Flash–based content.
OS is still buggySome issues with hardware buttonsVery little native software available
4G LTE connectivity
Google Voice not supported yet
Inactive MicroSD slot
No MMS or SMS capabilities
It's expensive
Heftier than the iPad 2
And novice users may balk at Android's read-the-manual attitude
Screen isn't as bright or vibrant as we think it should be
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...
Great browser with nifty tabletspecific features, intuitive operating system, excellent Gmail and Talk interface
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
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...
