Motorola Droid review

Despite some design issues and a couple of missing features, the Motorola Droid is the most powerful and fastest Google Android device to date. It fully embraces the openness of the Android platform and offers Verizon customers a smartphone that certainly rivals the other touch-screen devices on the market.

HTC Droid Eris (Verizon Wireless)
Editor's rating:
4.0 stars

HTC Droid Eris (Verizon Wireless)

The bottom line: Though its performance wasn't completely top-notch and we would prefer a more recent Android OS version, the HTC Droid Eris is a satisfying Android device that offers a nice contrast to the Motorola Droid. And you can't beat the price.

  • Ep. 1115: Droid does porn Ep. 1115: Droid does porn

    One thing Droid users can lord over iPhone fanatics is the new porn app. Yes, with no Apple lording it over the app store Android users can go adult. We also debate the reality of Cyber Monday and congratulate Twitter on being word of the year. Also we know you're all wishing for Macs for Christmas, but you're going to get a netbook. Amazon doesn't lie.

    Rafe Needleman is drawn in to a love story with the new Motorola Droid. Dare we call it a Dro-mance? It's certainly a flashy new phone for Verizon, which hasn't always been known for flashy new phones. We also congratulate Google on getting the contract to provide e-mail to the city of Los Angeles. Well, congratulations and we fear for them. Because if they mess this up, it is so over.
