Verdict

The Motorola XOOM 2 3G (MZ616) is a 10.1-inch tablet featuring a 1280x800 pixel IPS LCD display protected by damage-resistant glass. It is powered by a 1.2GHz dual-core TI OMAP 4430 processor, 1GB of RAM, and 16GB of internal storage, running on Android 3.2 Honeycomb. Key characteristics include its 3G cellular connectivity, a splash-proof coating, a built-in IR port for universal remote functionality, and a 7,000mAh battery. Main pros are its improved slim design (8.8mm) and lighter weight (599g) compared to the original Xoom, alongside solid build quality and stereo speakers. However, notable cons include the lack of a microSD slot for storage expansion, occasionally sluggish software performance, and a 5MP rear camera that struggles in low-light conditions.
