Motorola XOOM 2 Media Edition
With its 8.2-inch 1280x800 display, again coated with Corning Gorilla Glass, the XOOM 2 Media Edition fills the company's blank space in the sub 8.9-inch tablet market quite well. Just like its bigger brother the XOOM 2, the Media Edition packs a 1.2GHz dual-core processor, 1GB of RAM, 16GB of storage and 5MP camera at the back.
However, unlike it, the XOOM 2 Media Edition weighs in at 386 grams and is a hair under 9mm thin. Naturally, the battery is smaller, due to the size of the tablet, and is good for 6 hours of web browsing and about half a week of music playback, Motorola claims.

Both tablets will run Android Honeycomb 3.2, with the company keeping its cards close to the chest whether Ice Cream Sandwich will hit both versions of the XOOM 2. Expect the XOOM 2 and XOOM 2 Media Edition to hit UK and Ireland in mid-November, with more markets to follow soon after. Price is yet unknown, though.
