Please note that there is a more comprehensive Droid X review available if you want. It is impossible right now to find a smartphone bigger than Droid X and its 5 inch tall stature. It boasts a 4.3 inches screen and a 854×480 resolution, exactly the same as the EVO 4G. It is a know fact that the iPhone 4 is actually on top when it comes to pixel density, however Droid X has such a large screen that it compensates a lot for a few missing pixels.
Motorola also went bigger by including an 8-megapixel camera with dual LED flash that takes fairly clean pics as well as records video in 720p. Motorola incorporated DLNA and also HDMI support for streaming media to your high-def TV or any 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.
Unlike the original Droid, Motorola opted against adding a physical keyboard to the Droid X. This was a smart choice for the reason that although the telephone is big, it’s fairly thin in comparison to its general size. An actual keyboard would’ve most likely made a device already tough to stuff into a pocket even tougher. Nevertheless, using the bigger screen, the on-screen key pad is straightforward to type with and Motorola attentively incorporated a Swype keyboard for those who aren’t pleased with the Droid keyboard supplied.
One of the main selling points of the Motorola Droid X is that you can use it as a mobile 3G hotspot for tethering laptops, netbooks and other wireless devices to your 3G connection. 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 good on the cover but don’t deliver when it comes to technical functionnalities. Droid X is a very great all-around phone and you can be sure you won’t be disappointed.
