When will you do a Motorola Xoom 2 review? I've seen other reviews & it seems the Xoom 2 us an improvement on the first one. It would be helpful to have a review by Mobile Tech because I find they are the most in depth & professional.
@sigthor1945 We've done reviews of the XYBoard 10.1 and 8.2 on Verizon which are the Xoom 2 with 3G. The Xoom 2 in the US only has WiFi but no 3G. Other than that they are the same. Search our reviews on our channel page.
I need help choosing a tablet.. Its either the Toshiba thrive, asus transformer prime or the Motorola xoom..I don't like the transformer cause it has no usb hardware on the sides, but I do like it because of its ips display..I like the Toshiba also and the Motorola, im stuck and im new to all of this and I don't know what to get, help?! Which one of them are superior in your opinion?
I can't describe how much I wanted to get an ASUS Transformer Prime...it just can't be found anywhere so I gave up the search and settled for this. I hope it will satiate me.
@MobileTechReview You're welcome. I was also wondering, this review was almost a year ago. Is there many updates and new tablet apps available since then?
@11uxie11 They have very different features as far as tablets go. We have both in-depth written reviews on MobileTechReview and video reviews here on both tablets. Be sure to check them out. Hopeful the info we provided in these can help you decide.
hey lisa...i have been watchin all the android tablet videos you uploaded...thanks for sharing them with us....
now when i took the pros and cons for all the tablets(also from ur website), none stood out from others...i am college student...just want little more mobility in class and for entertainment...which android tablet you would recommend for less than 400?
Oh and sorry about the second comment in a row, 3.) Does it have a USB port built-in? (Again, sorry for making 2 comments in a row, but I forgot what the third question was.)
Hello, Lisa, I got a couple of questions for you. 1.) Can I use a keyboard and mouse with one of those? 2.) How do you buy all of that technology? You have so much! Where do you possibly get that kind of cash?
Just got my Xoom yesterday. I was contemplating for a week on whether i should get it, or the iPad. Then someone summed it up for me. They said 'If you care about looks, go for the iPad. If you care about less restriction, and more power, go for the Xoom'.
Having performed detailed reviews on both the galaxy tab 10.1 and the moto xoom, which would you recommend for a power user? I like rooting my android devices (both support root) and both have very similar hardware and software...so which one would you recommend?
....Part3- Here's another point: Computer "users" probably outnumber computer "experts" by at least 1000 to 1. Look at Android Tablet Sales. Ipad is outselling Android tabs by at least 1000 to 1. One could say that the "experts" are the ones smart enough to buy Android Tablets. But if you divide that 1 out of 1000 by 6-8 vendors, that's not enough sales to make it. At some point the vendors have to "get it" and stop listening to "experts", and build something for the masses as Apple did.
....had to be corrupted to save us. Understand? It's always been our dream to have user friendly computers, but the subculture around "configuring" the PC had to justify its future position regardless that the "user friendly dream" was closer. The experts need to kill user friendliness to "save" us so only THEY can give that to us with their "configuration" talent. Damn perverse if you ask me.
This video is only missing the major characteristics of Xoom with Android 3.0: instability and a total lack of updates from Motorola on emerging countries. I've just bought mine exactly 1 week ago and i'm returning it.
...iPad has started. A future of portable computing where the "computer nerd" is irrelevant and so is his "mine is bigger than yours" mentality. Look at all the kids doing vids as if their youth and knowledge of a few buzzwords is all they need to be computer "wizards". That will become obsolete. Comparing technical jargon like ports, screens, slots, will be irrelevant. It's about the mass of humanity holding something in their hand, and just doing shit. No Nerd needed.
Dear Lisa, that was a thorough review as always. You have a good voice for this type of thing. Have you ever done broadcasting before? You sound comfortable in this field. Thanks. Your reviews are usually informative and thorough.
This is a very good tablet, but I have come to the conclusion there is no market for tablet computers. There is an iPad computer market, and that's about it. I think Apple created a market for its product and I bet nobody else will make much money from that market.
@TheJasperkitty Care to explain your conslusion? I believe ipad buyers are largely iphone owners so in the same sense, android phone owners will be interested in android tablets. How can you not see a market there?
@senistardogs No problem explaining. There has never been a decent tablet PC market. I believe there still is not a tablet PC market which is why the Android tablets aren't selling very well. As detractors were quick to point out, the iPad is NOT a good tablet PC which is precisely why it is selling so well. iPad defined a new market that the Android tablet PCs are not hitting.
@TheJasperkitty Im not sure if i agree with you. The future is about portability and net access on the go with (3G/4G), these tablets are the first step in that direction which will eventually end up with fully touch optimized laptops and PC monitors. Android tabs are having a slow start but it was the same with their phones. Just look at all the manufacturers rushing their tablets to the market now (toshiba, lenovo, LG etc.). There must be a reason for that.
@senistardogs You have a well reasoned response. I just disagree, and right now the sale of PC tablets seem to indicate I am right. Here's the thing... The future can be "portable" without PC Tablets. What I mean is that people seem to be defining the future without a PC tablet in it. No mem slots, no usb ports, no PC type crap. People, regular people, are defining a future with portable computing, but NOTHING like the PC as we know it, which is what I think the iPad has started.
@TheJasperkitty OK, i see what your getting at but it all comes down to defining what a tablet PC is. We could just asses that the ipad and the standard it has set doesnt have a whole lot to do with a term ''PC'' as we know it. That said, a andoid tab like the transformer makes the gap between a regular laptop and a tablet pretty narrow and there is no reason to say it wont get even closer between the 2 as tablets evolve. So yea, tablets are not PCs but that doesnt mean they are not the future.
@senistardogs Yes, iPad is not a portable PC. But as long as Android Tablets are marketed using PC features as their "iPad killer" features, people will see them as little flat PCs, requiring help to set up, having virus issues, and having to have "experts". Here's an eye opener: The iPad which requires no futzing in order to work was received by the experts as "controlled", and had to be liberated by rooting and jailbreaking. Finally a machine that just worked had to be corrupted to save us.
Hey lisa. im a very big fan of yours and i would really loke to know something or everything about the expensive Vertu Constellation and all about those expensive phones, im looking forward for that review.
I'm debating on getting a laptop or the Xoom and was wondering if the Xoom has the capability to create and edit word docs and spreadsheets? Also, can you attach these docs and spreadsheets to an email?
Wow, amazing review. I was looking to see what was good or bad about this tablet and got exactly what I needed, thank you so much. Now I definitely want it, that much is for sure. And that bluetooth keyboard is awesome, can't wait to get that too.
hahahahaha wut the heck go ahead and touch the power button cuz it feels good on your finger so you can go ahead and feel that, hahahahaahaha i was cracking up
awesome review! Just curious, of all the xoom reviews I've seen there hasn't been any facebook apps used. Is there no facebook app for honeycomb? Or is the froyo one not compatible?
you know what I like about your review? You don't compare it with other tablets and talk about whats missing in this. You talk only about the good and bad things about the tablet in hand and I appreciate that.
It s a good video review. One thing though that you missed and its a very very important aspect of the device. How long is battery life? How is the battery life on 3g ? How is it during video gaming, movies, gaming and movies moderate to heavy use etc???
Nice review. Only thing when you were web browsing, you never zoom in because you said it has a nice screen. But why not show how smooth zoom is?
Also which device is smoother in web browsing in your opinion? iPad or Xoom? I am waiting for this Wednesday for iPad2 reveal and see what apple has in store to battle Android tablets, if I do not see what I like, any other devices in near future to come out that supposedly should be very nice as well as the Xoom?
If anyone wants all the honeycomb wallpapers, download the honeycomb wallpaper app from the market. If you wanna get more detailed, dl adw and the adw honeycomb theme.
@DigitalDestined In term of spec, Xoom beats iPad in almost every category. I'm talking twice the speed, 4 times the memory, better browser, customization, better Google map w/ voice navigation, camera, mini usb, HDMI video output, upgradable to 4G etc.
The ultimate question. in your pure opinion would you purchase this product over the IPAD 2 assuming that the IPAD 2 isn't going to have as good as specs and not a significant upgrade is the IOS. I am either going to buy the IPAD 2 or the Xoom w/o 3g. My biggest concern with the Xoom is the lack of apps and the possible bugs in the Honeycome
@magicsmac The point of her unbiased review was to provide the viewer with an informative overview of the product so the consumer can make their own personal decision. I think she did that quite well. In "my" opinion the Xoom is much better than the iPad in terms of the OS design and browsing experience, but of course, it will lack in the apps department. It is impossible to compare it to the iPad 2 since it is not even out yet.
can you tone down the effects, when changing between cuts, since sometimes i'm not sure if its and android effect, or you just cut two scenes together and used some "weird" transition effect.
Great review. I am impressed with what I've seen with this tablet, but it's going to make it difficult to judge what to buy now as Ipad 2 is just around the corner. I already seem to have some sort of "tablet research OCD" When the market floods with them as it will this year, the choice will become more difficult.
@zorkor i deffinately like this tablet but idk in my opinion the interface could have been done different idk it just seems very weird and not that attractive
@LubomirDohnal Probably a result of software being better optimized for the ipad as Apple build the hardware and make the software. I think the Honeycomb Android OS looks very promising though and it is great to finally have a serious ipad alternative hit the market. Of course next week ipad 2 will be announced so it will be interesting to see what Apple have up their sleeve.
This is a very nice device but the fact that it was somewhat rushed to market with several issues I would not recommend purchasing until the issues are fixed. WHat issues? No 4G without shipping it back to Motorola in approx 90 days, no SD card reader until a software update are the two main ones. Hopefully they will start to ship with all this working soon.
@davva360 You dont have to ship it anywhere for 4G. There is a slot at the top where the card for 4G can be inserted and it will activate 4G. just take it to the verizon store when 4g is out and you want to upgrade. Simpel as that. This is not an issue. Also it has micro sd card. Please watch review carefully.
@SyphonFilterr If you read the tech blogs Verizon and Motorola have confirmed that the current models are not 4G ready. To enable 4G you have to return the tablet to Motorola (who are in fairness paying all shipping costs) and they will upgrade the device for you. Expected turnaround is 6 business days. This has been all over Engadget, BGR and the other tech sites for the last few days. Yes the SIM slot is there but only works for 3G until you return for the upgrade. Thanks.
@SyphonFilterr TO correct my comment the sim card is not used for 3G, the slot is there so you can access the SD card which is in the same place but read the tech blogs. 4G does not work on this device without a physical upgrade by Motorola. When all the issues are fixed, including some software glitches (CNET and Engadget) this will be a great alternative to the ipad. I just would not buy until I see that Motorola follow through because this is not a cheap device.
Lisa, you covered so much, just your review alone justed pushed me to want the Xoom even more. thanks. I hope you review the ipad 2 when it comes out, and compare. love your voice, and I see you have no rings ,,, what's up . Jr ;-) <3

Nice review. Only thing when you were web browsing, you never zoom in because you said it has a nice screen. But why not show how smooth zoom is?
Also which device is smoother in web browsing in your opinion? iPad or Xoom? I am waiting for this Wednesday for iPad2 reveal and see what apple has in store to battle Android tablets, if I do not see what I like, any other devices in near future to come out that supposedly should be very nice as well as the Xoom?

Great review, but I have to ask...what's the point of uploading to 1080p if it's only 480p quality?

If anyone wants all the honeycomb wallpapers, download the honeycomb wallpaper app from the market. If you wanna get more detailed, dl adw and the adw honeycomb theme.

Great review Lisa! Will you be doing a review to compare the Xoom against the Ipad?
DigitalDestined 1 year ago
@DigitalDestined In term of spec, Xoom beats iPad in almost every category. I'm talking twice the speed, 4 times the memory, better browser, customization, better Google map w/ voice navigation, camera, mini usb, HDMI video output, upgradable to 4G etc.

Lisa,
The ultimate question. in your pure opinion would you purchase this product over the IPAD 2 assuming that the IPAD 2 isn't going to have as good as specs and not a significant upgrade is the IOS. I am either going to buy the IPAD 2 or the Xoom w/o 3g. My biggest concern with the Xoom is the lack of apps and the possible bugs in the Honeycome
magicsmack 1 year ago
@magicsmac The point of her unbiased review was to provide the viewer with an informative overview of the product so the consumer can make their own personal decision. I think she did that quite well. In "my" opinion the Xoom is much better than the iPad in terms of the OS design and browsing experience, but of course, it will lack in the apps department. It is impossible to compare it to the iPad 2 since it is not even out yet.

thanks for this nice review, but one request.
can you tone down the effects, when changing between cuts, since sometimes i'm not sure if its and android effect, or you just cut two scenes together and used some "weird" transition effect.

Great review. I am impressed with what I've seen with this tablet, but it's going to make it difficult to judge what to buy now as Ipad 2 is just around the corner. I already seem to have some sort of "tablet research OCD" When the market floods with them as it will this year, the choice will become more difficult.

i cannot help saying that ipad seems a bit smoother in terms of changing transitions or browsing the web. How's that?
LubomirDohnal 1 year ago
@LubomirDohnal Probably a result of software being better optimized for the ipad as Apple build the hardware and make the software. I think the Honeycomb Android OS looks very promising though and it is great to finally have a serious ipad alternative hit the market. Of course next week ipad 2 will be announced so it will be interesting to see what Apple have up their sleeve.

This is a very nice device but the fact that it was somewhat rushed to market with several issues I would not recommend purchasing until the issues are fixed. WHat issues? No 4G without shipping it back to Motorola in approx 90 days, no SD card reader until a software update are the two main ones. Hopefully they will start to ship with all this working soon.

@davva360 You dont have to ship it anywhere for 4G. There is a slot at the top where the card for 4G can be inserted and it will activate 4G. just take it to the verizon store when 4g is out and you want to upgrade. Simpel as that. This is not an issue. Also it has micro sd card. Please watch review carefully.
SyphonFilterr 1 year ago
@SyphonFilterr If you read the tech blogs Verizon and Motorola have confirmed that the current models are not 4G ready. To enable 4G you have to return the tablet to Motorola (who are in fairness paying all shipping costs) and they will upgrade the device for you. Expected turnaround is 6 business days. This has been all over Engadget, BGR and the other tech sites for the last few days. Yes the SIM slot is there but only works for 3G until you return for the upgrade. Thanks.
davva360 1 year ago
@SyphonFilterr TO correct my comment the sim card is not used for 3G, the slot is there so you can access the SD card which is in the same place but read the tech blogs. 4G does not work on this device without a physical upgrade by Motorola. When all the issues are fixed, including some software glitches (CNET and Engadget) this will be a great alternative to the ipad. I just would not buy until I see that Motorola follow through because this is not a cheap device.
