Performance
Under the hood, the XOOM is powered by the Nvidia Tegra 2 T20 chipset, featuring a dual-core 1.0 GHz Cortex-A9 CPU and a ULP GeForce GPU. This setup was considered powerful in 2011, offering a good balance for handling the Android 3.0 (Honeycomb) operating system, with the option to upgrade to Android 4.0.4 (Ice Cream Sandwich). However, in contemporary terms, this hardware configuration would be considered underpowered, struggling with modern applications that demand more processing prowess and RAM. The available internal storage options of 16GB, 32GB, and 64GB, coupled with 1GB of RAM, suggest a tablet built for moderate use, suitable for media consumption and light multitasking, but not for resource-intensive tasks.
