Given the success Apple had with the iPhone and its successor, the iPhone 2, it is difficult not to compare a new movie every two (and successfully) the film. In many respects, has the same physical characteristics of the two iPads Xoom generations.

Motorola Xoom was approximately 9.81 x 6.61 x 0.51 inches and weighs 1.61 pounds. For comparison, Apple iPad 2 measures 9.5 x 7.31 x 0.34 inches and weighing 1.33 to 1.35 pounds depending on model. When we returned to the Xoom was, we thought it was a bit harsh. Other similar observations have film. As a result, I was a little surprised to see that the Xoom was actually more difficult than the first generation iPhone, which weighs 1.6. Xoom was the first generation iPhone and thickness are similar: 0.51 (Xoom se) and 0.5 (iPhone). As for the width and height of the first generation iPhone measures 7.47 inches x of 9.56.

Although both the iPhone generation 9.7-inch screens Xoom offers 10.1-inch screen that offers higher resolution than the iPhone (1280 x 800 for Xoom was up to 1024x768 for the iPhone, iPad and 2). In addition, the screen aspect ratio is Xoom was especially interesting to watch widescreen movies on the platform.

During our tests, the event attracted a large amount of Xoom was fingerprinted but not seem to affect the responsiveness of the screen. Xoom is very good viewing angles. In fact, we were still able to Xoom was the display can be read by almost 90 degrees on the screen.

Although Xoom is used in portrait or landscape mode by simply rotating compressed as the natural landscape. When held in landscape mode, are the volume buttons on the left edge of the platform. The upper edge of the tablet sliding door SIM card slot and MicroSD slot opens. SIM card slot is designed for use when the tablet has been enhanced with support for 4G LTE.

Although it is not compatible with 4G LTE Xoom was out of the box, Verizon Wireless, said the problem without upgrading to 4G LTE sometime in the future. To update the pill, and then send it to Motorola. The update process should be six days. Once edited, and assume that you are in a coverage area of ​​Verizon 4G claims are high speed 12 Mbps downstream and 5 Mbps upstream, 5-2. For more information about upgrading, visit the updated page, which is Xoom training manuals and FAQ pages to find.

We do not know when the update will be available from Motorola Company, microSD slot is open, but at least we know that an upgrade of the plant. Meanwhile, it can be up to 32 GB of internal memory can be found in this use of the pill. Also, if you are too scared to wait, do not forget that there are on an informal basis XDA-Developers is available.

In the bottom of Xoom was, is, MicroUSB port, HDMI output port and cargo. As you can see the list that comes with Xoom have cable and a charger. You can load a tray with a charger that comes with Xoom was - microUSB port for data transfer, not only for charging.

Home / Sleep on your Xoom back near the back of the room. The rear view camera is a 5 megapixel camera with dual LED flash. The president of the chamber and the power button on the back of the tablet. Just above the screen to find the front Xoom was a 2.0-megapixel webcam.

Android 3.0 offers a redesigned user interface, which differs from previous versions of Android. In many ways, wireless is what we love about Android and improve for use on the big screen. Some of these enhancements include notification options, widgets, the ability to easily switch between software and new features to the browser.

In contrast to the Android smartphone as a typical set of keys on the screen (usually, again, Start Menu and search), there are no physical buttons on the Xoom was. However, there are three touch-sensitive icons (Back, Home, the last application) in the upper left corner of each screen. The last icon of the application is easy and fast to switch from one application to another. Because these "keys" that appears on the screen instead of a hard button, you turn the screen so you are always in the lower left corner.

In the lower right corner of the screen, a message board. You can order individual reports and in terms of time, or choose a digital display of time to see all alerts and notifications. By clicking on the icon of the digital technology, you can view information about the current connection status and battery life.

In addition, the application icon, custom icons (indicated by easy access to various forms "+"), to give your home screen. One of the main screen, you can create a text or voice query by searching Google for release in the upper left corner.

The onscreen keyboard is comfortable to type Xoom included, although I often accidentally hit the hyphen key instead of the period after the placement of these keys on the keyboard. For us, it seemed that these two keys should be placed in reverse order, but it's a personal preference. Other users might feel that way.

Xoom Internet surfing was fun, and especially appreciate the functionality of the browser tabs. Favorites menu containing thumbnails of each tab. Xoom when they were initially delivered pre-installed Adobe Flash Player Xoom was Motorola. Now there's an update available on the Android market Adobe Flash Player 10.2, a rich ideal for authorization.

Three evaluation criteria, evaluation of Xoom was at or near the top, compared to our reference systems. Show Linpack score, Xoom offers the processing power to compete with Dell Streak 7 and Viewsonic tablet G. Xoom 3DBench gifts were competitive offers graphics performance as well.

Link to the SunSpider JavaScript Xoom was superior to all other systems of reference in this test. Not only is the Xoom for the first time in this event, but made with spare parts.

Motorola Xoom has been a lot of good things for him. We liked the Xoom was a high-resolution color display with excellent viewing angle. Thanks also are compressed and the operating speed smoothly. Tablet, Android 3.0 is an improvement over previous versions of Android too.

The price is something many people try to get Xoom was to compare the iPad tablet and others. In this review, we examined the Motorola Xoom was Verizon Wireless. There is also a version of Wi-Fi, only in this film. In terms of prices, cheaper Xoom was about $ 100 more expensive than the cheapest iPhone.

However, it should be noted that the iPhone 16 GB storage and 2 $ 599 $ 499 iPhone 2 is 32 GB. When you look at the two tables with 32 GB of memory is built, and iPad Xoom two identical price tags. If you are considering a tablet connected to a wireless contract, Xoom come even cheaper than the cheapest iPhone is connected to Verizon Wireless and AT & T.

We want to be compressed and comes with flash installed and enabled for the MicroSD slot. Motorola and Verizon, which might also have deduced the car in the LTE platform, instead of asking customers to return Motorola to improve compressed. While the update is free, you have to do without for a while.
