Verdict

The Motorola DROID XYBOARD 10.1 MZ617 (16GB WiFi) is a slim, splash-resistant tablet featuring a 10.1-inch HD-IPS LCD with 1280 x 800 resolution protected by Corning Gorilla Glass. It is powered by a 1.2GHz dual-core TI OMAP 4430 processor and 1GB of RAM, running originally on Android 3.2 Honeycomb. Key hardware includes a 7000 mAh non-removable battery, a 5MP rear camera with LED flash, a 1.3MP front camera, and integrated stereo speakers. Main pros include its lightweight, tapered design (599g and 8.8mm thickness), an infrared port for universal remote functionality, and solid build quality with a rubberized metal back. However, notable cons include the lack of a microSD card slot for storage expansion, the absence of an included stylus for certain WiFi-only variants, and the awkward placement of the power and volume buttons on the rear casing.
