is there a data plan for this phone?? and if so how much….
hey im looking for a good man to you-know-what my brains out
this is the real iphone killer
Well I mean if your into a more professional type phone whats slightly customizable. The android is more customizable and more for the everyday users. Its a little more laid back. The android isnt really basic but not so much professional as the winmo.
This was a very good review.
who wants to watch me undress? Yeah I know you do
this is so cool ohhh
When would a user choose for android and when for winmo? Do you mean like, if you need a full operating system choose for winmo, if you need basic features choose for android?
Man this navigation feature is tight!!! I was considering buying a navigation device like a garmin, but man i may have to reconsider and just buy this phone instead. Only thing that sucks though, is that because it is a smart phone the internet will be an extra $30 on top of my monthly bill. Hmm, maybe it will be cheaper to just buy a regular navigation device instead.
Yea I do like the android better than 6.5 to but the only thing I will say is its still android 2.0. Its still fairly new even though its been out a while and by it just coming on on Verizon phones and they are trying to pack so much in this phone so fast I am sure there will be some problems with it but nothing major i would think. Oh well since you dont live in the US I would go with that HD2. Now between the HD2 and the droid just depends on what you like and what you want to do w/ the phone.
Thank you! This has been one of the best and most insightful reviews on this phone. To the point and direct. Is this another one hit wonder from Motorola though…i wanna love them, but theyre not givin me much reason to. The Android OS thought looks very nice, a lot of useful features etc.
I’m curious about the web app. The thing I love about the iPhone’s web, (that my Blackberry doesn’t have) is that it’s the same web page I see on my PC not some “made for cell phone page” Does the Droid offer the same?
At this moment I don’t really like windows mobile 6.5 and I’m liking android 2.0 better. I’ve seen screenshots of what winmo 7 will look like and I really like it, but there’s still no info on a release date. I really like the HTC HD2, but I think I’ll regret it when I buy the device and android will look so much more awesome. And I don’t live in the US, so the HTC HD2 will be in stores within a week or 2 max.
you dont have 2 stay on the contract tho you can just spend another 200 to cancel it an save alot of money in the long run
Great review of the Driod Iam getting one the second I get 200 the only thing I wanted to know was weather your make small vid showing the Compass view mode which Iam I know the Droid also comes with. Thanks alot.
So if I had to pick out of the 2 it would be the HD2 but if you live in the US then obviously the Hero.
I actually really really like the HTC HD2. I have the HTC Imagio and I hate it but it seems like the things I hate about my Imagio the HD2 is really good at. The only thing is its on available in the UK. The Hero is really slick and nice. One of the things that I like the most is that is really customizable. One of the drawbacks is the Hero is kinda laggy.
Do you think this is better than a hero on android 2.0? (not really familier with motorola phones). And I’m doubting between this one and the HTC HD2, which one would you recommend?
3:07 lol Mcdonalds 1 star
The Droid has beat the iPhone in features so get over it apple lovers. I don’t think it will cell as much as the iPhone because of marketing, that is the main reason why the iPhone is at a high standard because of marketing
how does it the touchscreen feel compared to the iphone 3gs is it faster…slower…
so alot of phones have a issue with calling navigation directions over a stereo bluetooth connection and last time i checked pandora didn’t work with stereo bluetooth, does anyone know if either of these has been solved with the droid?
I am so getting this phone. So, can you please link us to this video in your first? I had to back up and find the second video.
i love this phone. I cannot wait to get it
please compare it to the iphone 3gs..the browser and how fast it is compared to iphone 3gs
