Remember the Droid ads that Verizon was reported to be running yesterday? Well Boy Genius Report has managed to get his hands on Verizon’s Motorola Droid. Initial thoughts he has is that the phone is nearly as thin as the iPhone 3GS, but still has a full-ish QWERTY keyboard, which is “pretty usable and has a soft-touch rubberized finish”. It’s got a huge, capacitive display that is “the best screen we’ve ever seen on an Android handset”. And it’s running Android 2.0 on “the fastest Android device we’ve ever used. (It’s running a TI OMAP3430 processor)”. Not bad at all, but will be looking forward to the full review which should be up soon (hopefully). (Found on Boy Genius Report)
it will be interesting to see if the Droid lives up to all the hype; it seems like every major new smartphone that comes out claims to be an “iPhone killer”
