Expert Reviews of DROID by Motorola (Verizon Wireless)

Expert Rating: 4.0
by Joni Blecher -- December 28th 2009

The Motorola DROID has a lot to offer running the Google Android OS 2.0.1 and at the top of that list is a speedy user experience. Nothing seems to lag on this smartphone and it comes with plenty of features to keep you busy. The music player is impressive, the 5-megapixel camera has a flash and takes acceptable pictures, the Marketplace offers tons of good free applications to download, and although there is WiFi included surfing the web using the Verizon Wireless network is far from sluggish. If you’re in the market for a Google Android smartphone the Motorola DROID won’t disappoint.

The battery life really doesn't last very long. It's very touchy on the keys and paging up and down.

I recently purchased Motorola Droid from Letstalk.com. I’m still learning how to use all the features on the phone. So far I am pleased with the phone. This is the first smart phone I have owned, so I don’t have anything to compare it to. I would also like to comment on Letstalk.com. The service was very good. I placed the order over the phone. It was easy and the order was shipped when promised. I ordered the phone on Saturday and it was delivered on Wednesday. The instant rebate was nice. I will recommend Letstalk.com to others.

Droid vs iPhone plans 1 Post(s) Reply

I'm trying to choose between iPhone and Droid. Since I'm over 65, I can get a voice+data plan from AT&T for $59.99 a month, but the cheapest Verizon plan seems to be $79.99 a month. Is that true?

I would like to delete some of the factory apps that I will never use such as Amazon mp3. When I move it to the trash can at the bottom of the screen, it still reappears. How do I remove it permanently or at least hide the icon? Thanks for your help!!
-Bill

  • Re: Factory Apps 0 Post(s) Reply

    Re: Factory Apps 0 Post(s) Reply You can hide the icon from your home screen by moving it to the trash can, just try it a few more times. However, it's currently impossible to uninstall factory apps without rooting your phone.

Hello, i am very interested in this new phone. I currently have a Blackberry Bold And I do love this phone there are just a couple of things that I would like to be improved. The roller ball - I hate it, it always gets stuck, and needs to be cleaned. Does the Droid have a roller ball? I love being able to work from my phone on excel, word, power point - does the droid come with those programs? I have a corp email through java communications that I am unable to access from my BB Bold - can the Droid do that. One last thing I can think of is I can Not access all parts of the internet from my BB Bold and that is some videos that I think are accessed through a Widget? Can the Droid access all videos on the internet?

-SCOTT

  • Re: MS Outlook compatibility 0 Post(s) Reply

    Re: MS Outlook compatibility 0 Post(s) Reply You can sync the DROID with outlook, but you must install the proper software and with a USB cable. You should contact Verizon to find out more information. You can set it up to your specific e-mail accounts without hassle, but if you do sync it to Outlook you won't want to wirelessly update your gmail (they will confuse each other).
