It seems to be a Motorola weekend as we showed you pictures and specs for the upcoming Motorola XOOM 2 and the RAZR. Now we have info on the XOOM 2 Media Edition (codename Fleming). The Media Edition will have an 8.2-inch HD IPS display with an anti-glare coating and weigh a mere 0.95 pounds, which would allow it to easily be held in one hand. The chassis is made of a combination of magnesium and aluminum, and the display is made of Gorilla Glass. If that isn’t enough, it’s “splash” proof.
In our post yesterday we mentioned there might be some sort of an IR blaster add on with the XOOM 2. It looks like the Media Edition will come with the integrated IR remote, and Motorola is added a subwoofer for better sound.
Could this be the same 7-inch Motorola tablet that leaked last week? It could be, but there are reports they might be working on a XOOM Mini which would mean they’re still planning on launching a 7-inch version.
Stay tuned as it looks like Motorola is really going to be stepping up their tablet game for the 4th quarter.
