The XOOM 2 is the direct successor of the original XOOM, packing a 10.1-inch 1280x800 display with Corning Gorilla Glass for extra protection. Powered by a 1.2GHz dual-core processor, the XOOM 2 comes with 1GB of RAM and 16GB of built-in storage, which is yet unknown if could be expanded via a microSD card.
Motorola has really tried hard to improve the XOOM 2 and as a result it weighs the whopping 131 grams less than the old XOOM and is thinner by a nudge over 4mm. The XOOM also comes with splash-guard technology, like the RAZR, which features a special coating to prevent incidental splashes from ruining the device.
However, in the camera department things are not so rosy. Motorola has thrown the same 5MP camera from the original XOOM, but to make things worse, the XOOM 2 has only a single LED flash, instead of two. The front camera, too,has been downgraded from 2MP to 1.3MP. Still, the battery promises 10+ hours of Web usage and over a month of stand-by time.
