The Motorola Xoom

The tablet PC market is booming and Motorola has thrown their cards on the table with the Xoom. This really powerful tablet has transformed itself into a major contender within its field, offering users amazing specs and features that will definitely make some iPad users a little jealous.

Motorola isn't out to win any frugal customers with the hefty price tag of this tablet; instead they are offering Motorola Xoom accessories, discounted contract packages, and above all computing horsepower to draw in the crowd. The 10.1 inch screen is producing quality pictures at 1280 x 800 pixels. While the 4G network will be installed in the first round of updates for the Xoom later on in 2011, it is already lightning fast with a 1GHz dual-core processor with 1GB of RAM. Verizon's go-to operating system Android is powering this tablet which makes anyone comfortable with either the Apple or Android smart phone products have an upper hand when navigating the Xoom. The Xoom also uses a 5 megapixel rear facing camera, 720p rear-facing camera, a 2 megapixel camera font facing camera, dual speakers and an LED flash as well flash.

So just looking at those amazing specs, it's obvious which tablet is going to be ranked number one. The first thing to buy will be a Motorola Xoom case and a Motorola Xoom Screen protector because this piece of technology is ultra-portable and slides easily into backpacks, briefcases, and even purses. The 3G network and dual-core processor makes multi-tasking a breeze. Streaming music, playing a game, and writing emails simultaneously won't slow down the system noticeable. Google took the helm with pre-installing Google talk, search, and organizational apps, each of which works flawlessly.

This tablet has an edge over any other tablet because of the multiple cameras. While it may feel a bit odd to hold up a nearly foot long tablet in order to snap a few photos on the subway, the picture quality and flash are crisp in most lighting conditions. The front camera is a major part that makes this tablet distinct. Apple and a few other companies decided to skimp out on the option, and with the popularity of video chatting programs increasing exponentially that may have been a bad idea.

Motorola and Verizon have found a knack for producing quality hardware and software. Choosing the Xoom over any other tablet out there is similar to the difference between an economy car and a sports car. While the sports car may have a higher price tag, it comes with style and horsepower. With the options for 4G quickly approaching, the Xoom is sure to see a long and healthy life in the tablet market.
