Motorola is a company known for creating innovative products in the telecommunication industry. Recently they have partnered up with the cell phone company Verizon Wireless to create another state-of-the-art gadget. This cool device is a new smart phone called the Droid X. But can we say that this new?cell phone is better then its competitors? Let's find out.
The Droid X runs on an operational system called the Android 2.1 and is soon going to get an update to the even more amazing Android 2.2. It has a 4.3 inch HD screen and an 8MP camera which blow the competition out. It also has a OMAP 3630 1GHz central processing unit built by Texas Instruments which allows it to be the only cell phone which supports true multitasking and also makes it twice as fast as the other similar Smart Phones such as the Apple iPhone 4G, HTC Evo, and others. Although the Motorola Droid has 8GB of internal storage, which is comparable to others, it also has a MicroSD card slot which supports a MicroSD memory card with up to 32GB of memory. So, you can have up to 40 GB of storage on your Droid X which is a lot more than what others have to offer.
Lets take a look at some of the features of Droid's competitors most notably, the iPhone 4G, HTC EVO and the Samsung Galaxy S. The iPhone 4G has a 3.9 inch screen, smaller than the Droid X. But, it does have really good resolution and a better battery life then the Droid X. The HTC Evo is equipped with a 4.3 inch display, but the resolution is not as good and it only offers 8GB of memory. The Samsung Galaxy S also has a 4.0 inch display, but only 480x800 resolution. However its very light and offers up to 16GB of internal plus 2GB of additional memory.
But the biggest difference is that none of the phones, not named Droid x, have multitasking which is quite useful because it allows you to use multiple apps at the same time making the Droid almost seem like a small version of your laptop. And while the iPhone might have more apps for it now, the Android market is growing quite rapidly and should catch up to it as well. From all of this you can see that the?Droid is better then? its competitors.However, if you already have one of the other smart phones listed here, don't get upset and try changing your phone to the Droid X because although you might not have the absolute best smart phone, you still have an extremely good phone that is close to it.
