IDSTEIN, Germany - Jan. 3, 2012 - Building on the success of Motorola XOOM™, Motorola Mobility Germany GmbH is rocking the tablet world yet again with two additions that bring enhanced experiences to the German market: - boasting powerful productivity, rich entertainment and customizable experiences - are the answer to consumers looking for a tablet that can keep up with their lifestyle. Both tablets feature 3G and Wi-Fi capabilities and are expected to be available in February 2012.
"Tablets are quickly becoming a must-have tool for staying
connected, getting work done and having fun at home and on
the road," said Ralf Gerbershagen, vice president and general
manager Europe, Mobile Devices, Motorola Mobility. "We are
very excited about these two new additions to our tablet
portfolio that build on the success of the original Motorola
XOOM to now deliver more powerful tablet experiences to the
European market."
The new Motorola XOOM 2 and Motorola XOOM 2 Media Edition
both feature Android™ 3.2, a dual-core 1.2 GHz processor,
brilliant displays with Corning® Gorilla® Glass and a
splashguard coating for a go anywhere, do everything
attitude. In addition, both tablets include the new
MotoCast™1 app that lets you stream all your music, photos,
videos and documents between your PC or Mac and tablet
without any media tools, apps, or cords.
Motorola XOOM 2: Lighter and Brighter
Motorola XOOM 2 sports a 10.1-inch widescreen HD display and
Android 3.2 Honeycomb like its predecessor, but the
similarities end there. The display is brighter and more
vibrant than before with color enhancement, and the edges
have been strategically designed to make the tablet more
comfortable to hold -- this tablet is easy on the eyes, and
easy on the hands. Motorola XOOM 2 is loaded with Business
Ready features like Virtual Private Network (VPN) support and
data encryption.
Motorola XOOM 2 features MOTOPRINT integrated into key apps so you can print wirelessly from your tablet. It is approximately 100 grams lighter than the original Motorola XOOM to make it even easier to take on the road, and it can withstand poolside use, spilled drinks or dashes out to the car in the rain thanks to its new splash-guard coating. A battery delivering more than 10 hours of video playback means it can go with you wherever you need to be3.
Motorola XOOM 2 Media Edition: Beat your Boredom
Motorola XOOM 2 Media Edition is easy to hold with one hand
thanks to its 8.2-inch display, and easy to take with you
wherever you go, weighing less than the best-selling
paperback you've been carrying around. Optimized for
entertainment, it has a wide, 178 degree viewing angle. Hold
it up to someone across the room, or share it with someone
sitting next to you, and everyone gets a brilliant view.
Motorola XOOM 2 Media Edition has a 20 percent improvement in
graphics performance over the original Motorola XOOM for
smoother gaming, featuring adaptive virtual surround sound
with booming bass that'll delight your ears and make you
stand out from the crowd with one of the fastest
multi-tasking in its class. It can even be a universal remote
control for home entertainment equipment with the
personalized, custom remote control app pre-loaded on the
tablet. Lastly, a splash-guard coating provides extra
protection against the spills that are bound to happen when
you're having fun.
Accessories to connect to your life easier, from anywhere
With the Work and Play kit, plug your tablet into the HD
Multimedia Station to connect to your HDTV, speakers and
other peripherals for large-screen entertainment. Get more
done, faster with the included keyboard and mouse with
Bluetooth® technology. Now, when your tablet is docked, the
Smart Controller lets you MC the show from the comfort of
your couch.
