[coreys96n02maximas]

The x is a beast its so amazing I can't put it down

[xTylerrrrrr]

exactly how much was this with and did you get a 2 year contract with it?

[Veraster1]

at 3:18 you can tell it's rooted because of the snes, nes and genesis emulators. Thumbs up for hacked Droids XD

[laxom6]

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA "Pretty Rave Girl" LOL

[stinkyslinky432]

Is this phone worth it?

[LaughinFool23]

awesome hat bro, ima a punisher fan 2

[shdxc]

More in the software, and the battery life, for some reason, I have to say WP7 is the worst battery performance, then the android, the iPhone is the best, what about Droid X never have A chance to use it as we don't have demand here. I know how milestone perform and it sucks. Many thanks, waiting for the.next Video(I found difficult to believe these days About some test out there)

phones**new**

[0GLn00b]

i dont even think about the iphone anymore android phobes are the bew era

[Buraion]

was that a signature in your text msg?

[FIowHD]

Manuel, GET BACK TO WORK!

[ihop23947]

Texting on a touchscreen couldn't be more annoying. No phone, iphone, motorola, whatever can do it well. You must have a slide out real keyboard to do real texting. Touch screens are cute, trendy and look cool, but practical they are not.

[whoswithme1]

@ihop23947 i had the lg dare for over a year and it recently broke. im using a friends enV 2 until my update in february, and i absolutely hate the solid keyboard. i was so used to the touchscreen keyboard that i am slower at texting now than i was with my first phone.

[ScReAMIngPenGuiN29]

Mom: Where r u. LOL

[aggtown682]

I'm surprised you don't have a lot more viewers 

[angelusp777]

the quick brown fox jumped over the lazy sheep dog.

no error.

[baggedz71]

is it true the screen cant even support the high resolution 8.1 megapixel camera pictures that it takes?Im not being negative or anything im just wondering,i watched a review that a guy on youtube did with the droid vs the iphone4 and he said something like the screen doesnt have enough dots to support the pictures it takes unlike the ip4 with the retina display has alot more dots?would the ip4s retina screen be able to fully support a picture from your phone?whew lol that was alot of typing

[UltreaKiller]

dayum, makes me wanna buy it instead of the galaxy s. what do u think AfroPenKid?

[thetechman123]

is ur Droid X rooted?

[rosander08]

droid x all the way. im getting mine in a week :D

[ghostkilla123]

i want to buy a new phone and i dont know which i should buy...

droid X or htc desire HD?

[FR0MDAS0UTH]

@ghostkilla123 droid x.

[gavrilaeugen]

do a Multimedia one too

[xmyco]

@AfroPenKid

i really would like know:

are you irritated AT ALL by the lags and choppy web scrolling and zooming

[AfroPenKid]

@xmyco lol no because I get no lag the web browser is awesome

[xmyco]

@AfroPenKid really?from the video, the web browsing seems very choppy... wouldnt you agree the iphone 4 has the smoothest mobile web browsing? in terms of zooming and scrolling through pages

[Palgh]

@AfroPenKid You drunk?

[Seamonkey159]

lol your mom was having trouble finding u hey? :D

[bklynsbabyboy]

lol haha "button"

[Diamond52894]

swype?

[HelluvaHorizon]

Lol how do NOT have a case on your DX? :D

[HelluvaHorizon]

Oh and download Dolphin Browser.

1. Faster.

2. Can open up to 8 tabs.

3. Bookmarks.

[Greyghostvol1]

why not use the swype keyboard that comes pre-install? I find it better then the stock keyboard.

[Kelitos24]

The quick brow fox jumped over the lazy bulls**t jeep =o!!!

[Bacon676]

I have to say, PenKid, it looks like it chugs a LOT while you're using it... I've never taken the time to watch many Droid X videos but... dang. It makes the Evo (stock) almost look smooth especially on the home screen. I rooted my Evo, and damn it's smooth now. There's a huge difference from 30-60 fps. Still, the Droid X isn't locked to 30 fps... why does the home screen chug so much? It's almost as bad the Moment with stock 2.1.

Good review, by the way. Keep it up!

[AfroPenKid]

@Bacon676 ummm thanks for the support but...i think were watching two different videos lol or your internet is messing up the video because I watched it and it looked smooth going through homescreens and i use this phone all the time and its super smooth

[Hanklink1014]

@Bacon676 its not the fault of the phone, but the default home launcher. there are a ton of videos of the droid x running Launcher Pro, and there you can see that the phones run extremely smooth.

[hengineer]

@Hanklink1014 I agree, Motorola failed with Motoblur. Even my Droid 1 runs great with ADW Launcher.

[tapster99]

@Bacon676 he could just have lots and lots of apps and stuff. Thats probably why its chugging so much. The droid x has a better processor so I would think it would be faster if im not mistaken.

[NetteFraulein]

whats "*06-07-08*"?

[AfroPenKid]

@NetteFraulein oh thats my sig the date my girlfriend and I started going out

[Illmatic662]

@AfroPenKid I recently got engaged as well and I am also looking for a ring :p

Congrats though bro

[NetteFraulein]

@NetteFraulein awww cool... you should be saving up for a ring about now lol

[AfroPenKid]

@NetteFraulein haha yea i got her a promise ring last christmas now got to save up for that engagement ring no doubt lol

[ThatTallWhiteGuy]

i dunno if you mentioned it or if you're aware, but the smart silencer (shake/flip to mute) is bugging the ring...my droid x doesnt ring anymore cuz of it. so make sure you turn it off, lol.... come on 2.2 fix!

[denizg6]

my bad dude

i thought the huming bird processor was fastest available

I want droid x now..........

[AfroPenKid]

@denizg6 lol droid x processor is a beast but remember not all about specs just try out both phones at a store but i think the droid x build quality is way better

[airbenderboy22]

dude i love ur vids dude

[ZeTutorials]

I prefer virtual keyboards anyway to the physical :-)

[530Reviews]

lol at pretty rave girl or w/ e it was haha

[denizg6]

why didint you get the samsung galaxy s doesnt it benchmark better

[AfroPenKid]

@denizg6 hahah not even. in overall performance and cpu droid x benches way better on strictly gpu samsung does a tad better because droid x has sgx530 and fascinate has sgx540

[cowboysfan28]

@AfroPenKid Droid X beches better for i/o which is really high for some reason, but that doesn't translate too much into everyday usage. By applying a lag fix for the galaxy s phones, the i/o can be vastly improved and get bench marks higher than the nexus one w/ froyo.

[Mrcrazycoasterfan]

can you tell me what is better the droid x or Samsung fascinate?

[Just1nSanee]

I would have gotten the droid 2 in my opinion

[AfroPenKid]

@Just1nSanee and whys that? my gf has that phone but why would you have gotten droid 2?

[Just1nSanee]

@AfroPenKid well size I believe doesn't matter in these circumstances. Even tho it does have a big screen I think either droid 2 or incredible would of been a better decision. I just think Motorola hurried up and made a big phone to try to compete with evo. soo I think htc make very good hardware and software.

[MrTDH11]

hi afropenkid what do you think its better ??

DROID X

or

HTC DESIRE HD ??

please tell as

peace >!!!

[SupremeBeever]

@MrTDH11 I would say Desire HD. But that wouldnt matter because if you live in Europe ur only choice is DHD, if you live in America ur option is only DroidX (if ur with verizon)

[idarien]

yo boss i like your show but your hat is dirty, lol

[gLu3r]

AFROPENKID! im gping to draw you! and i am a proficient artist ill send it to your email yo =]

[AfroPenKid]

@gLu3r lol oh snaps really haha if it comes out good ill give you a shout out and put it as my profile pic

[gLu3r]

@AfroPenKid GOTCHU! i did one for jon he said he loved and is gunna put it on a future vid ... but i got you!

[FaldorixAlpha]

id recommend the sgp anti fingerprint screen protectors for the droid x if ur worried about smudges, its also anti glare too :D

[Kristianvid]

if the droid x had a front facing camera i think it would be better than the htc evo 4g (i'm an evo 4g owner btw)

[MrJake549]

haha u say buttons funny! lol

[AfroPenKid]

@MrJake549 lmao i know!! I was trying hard in my head to say it different but i couldnt lol

[renegade8164]

I love Android :)

[RockeerSu]
