Motorola Uploads Tablet Teaser Video | Watch It

by Tyler Miller on December 20th, 2010 at 1:37 pm

Motorola is ready to make your skin tingle with this teaser video. It documents the evolution of tablets since the B.C. era. It takes some cheap shots at both the ultimate competition and the friendly competition; and in the end you want what’s under the hood.

Check out the video, it’s certain to build some….buzzzzzz:

  • mike

    BEE=honeycomb

  • swehes

    Awesome. :) I like it.

  • romma

    Show the damned thing!

  • Spencer

    AWESOME video!!!! Love it!!!

  • Curtis

    I am not sure. They discussed the cons of the other tablets, but really did not show the benifits of the honeycomb tablet.

  • Mac79PR

    I lol’d at the tablet with the ‘good graphics’ part. Can’t wait to see what they come up with.

  • Paul T

    I just jizzed in my pants a little.

  • ckeegan

    I’ve already posted this on several other sites, but I’ll post it again. Moto and/or Verizon better announce a release date for this damn thing at CES. Seriously, I don’t want to hear “Winter 2011″ or “1st Quarter 2011″; give me the damn date when I can hit the order/submit button, or I’ll be pissed!

    PS – That date better be March 11th or sooner.

    my only hesitation in buying one is that it’s not out yet. will pre-order as soon as i can. got a work-issued ipad recently, and it’s awesome, my only complaint is that it’s ios and not android. 10″ screen size is awesome when browsing and playing games.

    @ckeegan: march 12th is my birthday, so i hope they listen to your threat ;)

  • LSxChevelle

    Gotta admit a pretty good teaser video. So motorola gives verizon all the good stuff and now their logo is red…hmm black and red like verizon…damn verizon!

  • aleis

    not that i have anyone to buy me it for my b-day but…yeah!

  • christian

    Hope the graphics are better than the ones used in this video. Schlocky, but I like the concept.

  • austin

    revolutionary honeycomb tablet….

    but manufactured by motorola…..

  • Mrrix32

    Love the video, especialy the comments about the iPad (Although I would say Giant iPod Touch, rather than iPhone)

    And the Bee as a hit to those in the know.

    Although I still have no interest in a tablet. It just doesn’t fill a purpose that I don’t already have a gadget for.

  • JBart

    @curtis

    they showed alot of benefits actually, everything that the other tablets couldnt do the Moto tab could

    @Curtis This was only a teaser of course they aren’t going to explain anything about, it is all about the hype. If you want to see something of the tablet I’m pretty sure this will be the tablet that was in the video interview showing off Honeycomb’s features and the new version of Google Maps, and I know there have been some credible rumors about what this device will be packing.

    Also to the bee at the end, I get the Honeycomb reference but wasn’t there also a rumor about a device codenamed Bumblebee sometime back from Motorola, it could be a reference to that (seeing as that rumor was about a tablet it could still be a reference to Honeycomb as well).

  • G8D

    That was amazing.

  • Simsta

    Correct me if im wrong but all they are selling is honeycomb on their device? That is what makes it the best choice? The galaxy tab will get honeycomb too.

  • Adrian

    HAHAHA QUALITY! especially loved the bit about the iPad

  • A

    would it get updated to Ice Cream and then Jelly Bean though? I want a company to give me a money back guarantee on updates

  • mikeeeee

    no t-mo = epic fail.

  • Bianca

    lol @ simsta.
    Just like the galaxy phones got Froyo….

    Fun Vid. Now if they are smart and want to own the tablet world, this thing will NOT be 600.00 when they release it. Put it out at $499.00, and OWN the world!!

  • some internet dude

    If Motorola thinks Android is for phones then what do they have in store for there tablet?

  • Eric

    I got to admit, that video was really cool! Can’t wait for the Motorola Tablet to come out. I REALLY WANT ONE! Love my Droid X….just one more Motorola device to add to the collection! 2011 can’t come soon enough.

  • ilh

    The Bumblebee is bringing us Honeycomb!

  • http://www.pooporchocolate.com/ teckel

    Motorola only makes crap so I’m sure this will be crap also. By the time it’s released, there will be other tablets also running Honeycomb with faster processors, less expensive, and all-around better. Yawn!

  • RPG

    Motorola absolutely sells the best quality devices. “Crap”??? You are full of CRAP!

  • aaron

    Wow advertising works on all of you solo well. Lol. You’d all buy a turd in paper bag if they just told you it was the best tablet ever. He he he. Roflmao. Gay

  • Adrian

    @teckel if it’s crap, why would Andy Rubin be showing it off as opposed to other tablets out there then? he said himself, the Moto tablet is what they’re developing for, it’s on the engineers’ desks in the mornings. Google clearly has faith in it and so do I

  • destardi

    Dunno why ‘teckel’ wrote that…

    Motorola makes the most solid devices around, with the best build quality. Cameras absolutely suck, but everything else…topnotch.

    AND they’ve been around for decades.

  • Adrian

    @aaron no I wouldn’t, I think it’ll be good because Google is showcasing it. they wouldn’t showcase a turd would they?

  • him

    Win…nice teaser. Lets just hope it lives up to the hype.

  • james

    well this might be the first good thing to come from motorola because all of their phones suck! i have a nexus one and i whoop all the droids asses when i compare them

  • iamsteventucker

    @ james. doubt it.

  • Alan

    I have to agree, Motorola builds rock solid devices! I’m on my 7th generation of Motorola device starting way back at the T191 and now currently on a Milestone. In that time I’ve never managed to kill a Moto, Samsung and Sony-Ericsson on the other hand…

    Also I hope that the UK networks take notice, with Motorola now building kick ass devices, a brave network could try and get a deal similar to the one with Verizon and really get ahead of the game.

  • http://www.mensahwatts.com MensahWatts

    Yeah…these guys talking bad about Moto …don’t you know Moto is one of the oldest in the game? And they have made phones that have sold millions…that means they suck?

  • Dan

    Still just not sold on tablets. Typing from a $600 laptop that could kill any tab on the market. For me portability is kin to a phone (no pun intended). I’m all for a cool little tab to mess with at home, but if a netbook is $300 and can do nearly everything (except access the market) that an Android tab can do, but with a complete keyboard, I’m just not down.

  • Duran

    This is a cool video and I am very interested in the Tab market and what will be coming out. I have an iPad and will be getting a galaxy shortly. All paid for by the company so that is pretty cool. When the Moto model comes out I will really look at it, I feel that they make a quality product 90% of the time. There have been several flops but considering the number of products they have produced over the years that should be expected.

    As for justifying a Tab over a Net-book, easy to do. NBs have keyboards that are too small to use and screens that are to small to view. Making them useless for long documents or extended viewing for Multi Media etc. Web pages scrolling left and right really bug me. On the Tabs you can do most things with the soft keyboard hidden allowing for a larger viewing area, great for browsing, movies, games and such. I have a Net-book as well and used it just long enough to get it configured, then I gave it to my wife. Maybe if you have great eyes and tiny hands they are OK but not for me and my blind sasquach handed arse.

  • 4G or Not To 4G

    Noticing the IPAD is nothing more then a large IPHONE and the Galaxy Tab is Android…I want to see what is going to distinguish this device from my NEXUS One or G2 or a Droid Incredible…hopefully they can put their money where their mouth is.
