Please note that a more comprehensive review can be found on the Droid X vs Incredible website. Droid X has a 4.3″ screen with a 854×480 resolution, which is similar to the EVO 4G and makes it the largest smartphone currently available (5″ tall). Sure, the iPhone 4 boasts a higher pixel density, but the mammoth screen of the Droid X more than makes up for the lack of a few pixels here and there.
Motorola also decided to go bigger by including an 8-megapixel camera with dual LED flash that takes relatively crisp photographs as well as records video in 720p. Motorola included DLNA and also HDMI support for the purpose of streaming media to your HD TV or other device.
Droid X has a very powerful processor: the 1GHz TI OMAP. With a processor like this one, you can switch between applications easily and browse through the phone lightning fast. Also impressive is the memory available. The Droid X comes with 24GB of internal storage: 8GB on board and a 16GB removable micro SD card.
A big difference with the first Droid is that Motorola decided not to include a physical keyboard to this phone. This was a smart option because even though the cell phone is huge, it’s somewhat slim when compared with its general size. An actual keyboard would have most likely made a device already challenging to stuff into a pocket actually harder. Nevertheless, with the bigger screen, the on-screen key pad is straightforward to type with and Motorola carefully incorporated a Swype keyboard for those who aren’t pleased with the stock Android keyboard.
Another fantastic thing that you can do with a Droid X and not with an iPhone is use it as a 3G hotspot to connect your laptop or any other wireless device to the internet. This is very convenient . The connection you’re gonna get very easily is also faster than what you would imagine. Really an amazing feature that makes Droid X all the more appealing.
There are so many smartphones that look great on the cover but don’t deliver when it comes to technical functionnalities. Droid X is a very excellent all-around phone and you can be sure you won’t be disappointed.
