Subscribe Feed (RSS)The motorola Droid is a new Android phone hiting verizon sometime in early 2010. It is thin, jsut t slightly thicker than an iPhone 3GS and the thinnest QWERTY-slider we’ve ever seen. The android phone runns on Android 2.0 and a TI OMAP3430 processor, so it is boasted as the fastest Android device we’ve ever used. I guess you are interested to see what they do with it because we all know the stock Android is very usable, but no very pretty and still pretty clunky compared to some other new mobile OSes out there. The hardware looks good, but not great kinda like what you expect for 2009 and nothing more. The keyboard looks kinda lame. Verizon Android phones info

The verizon Droid is very similar to the OQO 02 model computer, but it is just smaller. Also it looks very sturdy and half soft-touch plastic as its metal with a non-spring-assisted slide. In addtion, the Droid has a huge and Awesome capacitive display. Verizon Phone Reviews
I really hope this device does well and Motorola decides to bring it to more carriers because this will drive competition and innovation into the market and we need that because the iPhone has been King for way too long. It needs some real competitors.

The actual release date is anticipated to be 10/30/09…as according to the teaser site (if you decode the countdown). Is the early 2010 prediction new?
Maybe, every time is possible
Decoding the countdown now gives you October 28th, but I’m seeing commercials saying November. Either way, exciting!

Motorola Droid sets new standards for smartphones. The power of Web search gets a new meaning. Motorola Droid allows you to type or speak your search with voice command, and you get results from the web, but also anything you want ? contacts, music, photos, applications and more. You don?t have to dig into menus anymore to find what you need; everything is available from the home screen.
The Droid is a big, industrial, even a little steampunk-looking contraption at 4.56 by 2.36 by .54 inches (HWD) and a hefty 5.96 ounces. The front is a bright, rich 3.7-inch, 854-by-480 LCD capacitive touch screen. Below the huge screen are four light-up, touch-sensitive buttons, and then a bit of a lip with the microphone on it. The back is burgundy soft-touch plastic. The whole effect feels pleasantly expensive, but also rather masculine; it’s not androgynous or organic like the iPhone.
Like the iPhone, the Droid is not the greatest voice phone. Verizon’s excellent network helps cushion the blow here. But calls on the Droid sounded more muffled, compressed, and computer-y, in both directions, than calls on a BlackBerry Curve 8330. Call quality was still acceptable, but I wouldn’t call it good. The phone’s speaker was loud at top volume, and distorted slightly when listening to a very loud sound source. The speakerphone, a long bar on the back, was of average volume and quality. The Droid got an amazing 7 hours, 7 minutes of talk time, one of the longest results we’ve ever seen for a Verizon Wireless phone.
The Droid auto-paired to our Plantronics Voyager Pro and Altec Lansing BackBeat mono and stereo Bluetooth headsets without a problem. But although calls, music, and video sounded clear, you can’t do any voice commands—voice dialing or voice search—through a Bluetooth headset. You have to speak your commands directly into the microphone or a wired headset. That’s a pity for a device with a dedicated Car Mode.
Speaking of Car Mode, the Droid is the first phone to come with Google Maps Navigation, which provides free, turn-by-turn, spoken driving directions. Car Mode is a simplified interface that gives you a few large icons to poke at in your car; Verizon will sell a car mount for the Droid, as well. The combination may make the Droid the best GPS phone on the market. We’ll have a full review of Google’s new free driving app next week, but in a brief test, it found my location accurately and gave loud prompts.

I purchased the droid yesterday and I am completely impressed with this phone, the apps are incredible, the ease of use for a smart phone is good, the phone is a little large but for all that it does, a great phone. I have no desire to own a iphone now.
