Leaked pictures: Motorola Xoom 2 tablets and the Droid RAZR

Add as a preferred source on Google

Motorola is gearing up for some new device launches. We’ve got leaked pictures of the return of the RAZR and the manufacturer’s second stab at the Xoom.

Droid RAZR

Motorola may be preparing to resurrect its iconic, faded RAZR brand, sort of. Over the weekend, The Verge posted some new leaked screens of the upcoming Motorola phone, which appears to be a renaming of the Droid HD, which was first spotted back in August. Here are the latest rumored specs for the upcoming Verizon phone: 4G LTE connectivity, a dual-core 1.2GHz processor, 1GB of RAM, an 8MP camera with 1080p video recording, an “HD” front-facing camera, and, of course, Motorola’s usual Webtop enhancements. So…does it look like a RAZR phone? To us, we can see some small similarities, but the RAZR succeeded because it was different from every other phone on the market. This Droid RAZR looks so similar to every other Android phone that an average consumer may not even know that it’s a RAZR until they’re told. Hopefully there is something more moving about this phone. More on the new RAZR as we hear about it.

Xoom 2 tablet(s)

The Xoom has not performed as well as Motorola predicted, but the company will continue the brand. Engadget has snagged some leaked shots of two Motorola Xoom 2 tablets. From the looks of it, Motorola has taken a cue from Samsung and will introduce a slightly smaller 8.9-inch Xoom 2 as well.

Though we’re not huge fans of the coloring on the back (it looks like a kids Walkie Talkie), the new Xooms may be about as thick as the 9.3mm iPhone 4. The units currently run on Android 3.2, have 5MP “HD” rear cameras, and will both run 4G LTE on Verizon. Not bad, right? Let’s hope they clean up the design.

Apple’s foldable iPad could meet the same fate as Microsoft’s doomed Surface Neo

Apple is exploring a massive foldable iPad, but this could be one of those projects that looks better on a roadmap than in a retail box.

According to a new report from Bloomberg, Apple has been working on a roughly 20-inch foldable iPad, a project that has reportedly been a priority for incoming CEO John Ternus. While it sounds like one of the company's most ambitious hardware bets in years on paper, it may never really hit the store shelves.

A subtle but potentially significant shift may be coming to the iPad lineup, and it has less to do with hardware and more to do with identity. In a recent interview with John Ternus and Greg Joswiak from Tom’s Guide, the company could rethink how it names future iPads - moving away from the familiar generation-based system.

Why I chose the Supernote Nomad over other e-ink tablets
The Supernote Nomad is the e-ink tablet I did not know I needed, and now I cannot put it down.
Supernote Nomad in hand

Supernote Nomad has become my favorite purchase of the last year, and believe me, the decision to buy it was not easy. I didn’t realize that the e-ink tablet landscape had become so vast, and all the tablets I looked at had at least a few compromises that were a deal breaker for me. 

Finally, after comparing and cutting out at least half a dozen e-ink tablets from my list, I settled on the Supernote Nomad. Yes, it also has some drawbacks, but there were five main reasons I settled on it.
