PROS

  1. Compact 8.2-inch display makes it much more portable than standard 10-inch tablets.
  2. Bright IPS screen offers great off-axis viewing with high-quality color reproduction.
  3. Splash-proof coating on the display and body provides protection against light rain or liquid spills.
  4. Solid build quality featuring a sturdy metal back and comfortable rubberized grip.
  5. Includes 3G connectivity (micro-SIM) allowing for internet access on the go.
  6. Micro-HDMI port allows easy, direct connection to TVs or monitors.
  7. IR Transmitter included, allowing the device to act as a universal remote for home entertainment.
  8. Lightweight design at 386 grams makes it easy to hold for extended periods.
  9. Decent, sharp resolution of 1280x800 pixels is sufficient for media consumption.
  10. MicroSD card slot is available for storage expansion.

CONS

  1. Sluggish performance and often unresponsive UI despite the 1.2GHz dual-core processor.
  2. Outdated Android 3.2 Honeycomb OS (at launch) was buggy and poorly optimized for apps.
  3. Poorly placed power/volume buttons located on the back make them difficult to find.
  4. No 4G LTE support limits data speeds compared to contemporary competitors.
  5. Weak, tinny speakers make for a poor "media" experience without headphones.
  6. Mediocre battery life (Approx. 5.5 hours of video) fails to compete with rivals.
  7. Proprietary software (MotoCast) is required for some file transfers, which is clunky.
  8. Mediocre 5MP camera frequently obscured by hands when holding in landscape mode.
  9. No official, seamless update to Ice Cream Sandwich (Android 4.0) at launch.
  10. Screen smudges easily and requires frequent cleaning for clear viewing
