Motorola Xoom now in India, too pricey?



Motorola Mobility has now officially launched the very first Android 3.0 Honeycomb based tablet in the Indian market. The Xoom soon follows after the launch of the HTC Flyer.



This tablet device from Motorola is powered by a 1GHz Tegra 2 dual-core processor, along with 1GB of RAM. It has a 10.1-inch display, plays 1080p HD videos, includes 32GB of in-built memory, a 5 megapixel on its rear which can capture life at 720p HD and a secondary 2 megapixel camera so users video chat with their buddies or probably enjoy random conversations on Chat Roulette. THe device also includes a HDMI port, Bluetooth, GPS and A-GPS connectivity.

The company priced the WiFi-only version at 32,990 INR and the WiFi+3G model is priced at 39,990 INR. However, we think the device is absurdly priced and it could have done much better in the market if the WiFi-only version would have been priced at around 30,000 INR and the WiFi+3G version would have been on sale for around 35,000 INR.

Currently, it goes up against the HTC Flyer which eve though is an Android 2.3 Gingerbread device is bundled with some interesting services. Moreover, we are still awaiting the Galaxy Tab 10.1 which would be a real deal breaker.
