That is not droid 2 boot. It is droid x. The droid 2 has finally been announced and can already be ordered through VZW website. Also the picture on the website shows completely different boot animation!!
same as first droid just more rounded and has the unnamed blur UI like the droid x. so having the same boot animation is possible. seems to load faster.
the Droid 2 looks as stupid as a pair of fucking clown shoes!
I didnt buy a Droid to "look sleek", what is that? fuckin chrome! And where is the front facing camera? come on guys dont just rush it. you gotta destroy that fruit phone thoroughly.
Fuck motorola, fuck them in their stupid asses...!
I have a Motorola Droid and the keyboard is a constant problem for me because I have big hands. I'm really interested in the Motorola Droid 2 because of the new awesome boot animation and the redesigned larger keyboard. I would pick this Droid over the Droid X because it's not much different and it's more affordable. I hope the rumor is true about it coming out this August!
There's absolutely no notable difference between the Droid 1 and 2. Okay, so the Droid 2 is gonna come standard with 2.2 FroYo? Who cares? Droid 1 owners are getting the 2.2 update in a few weeks. You can easily overclock the Droid 1 past 1GHz, so that's not a problem. If you really want a new Droid, just get the Incredible or the X. Don't waste your money on this. PS: Terrible boot screen.
@pyroguy5432 dude yeah the droid x is going to be the best phone on the market atm.. its going to be super fast (proven to be fater then evo and other top phones) it will be the best, until they come out wit something better lol..
and btw some people (like me) like the fact that is has a big screen... but i hate the keyboard on the 1st and now the 2nd droid.. so i hope when the droid x is no longer the top dog they bring out a droid X 2 with no keyboard like the 1st and 2nd droids have...
I just read that the Droid 2 isn't coming out until October/November. I am glad. THEY HAVE PLENTY OF TIME TO IMPROVE THE KEYBOARD! Protruding keys and space in between keys isn't to much to ask for...
@Diamond52894 it's coming out 8/23, actually lol. there is a rumor that a new android phone is coming out during the holidays. it's called the gingerbread/vision(?) but it's only for t-mobile. it'll feature android 3.0, i believe.
I'm due for an upgrade, but I'm not liking the key designs of these new Android phones. What is up with moving the "back" button to the center right? That's like Firefox and IE moving the "page back" button to the right of the address bar. Honestly I don't see the engineer's reasoning for moving the front buttons around. That's like me releasing a phone but changing the 7 and 9 keys around just to make it something new.
@aSuP3RSaiYaN Ok no offense to you, and/or what you believe, but the iphone 4g as well as the rest of the iphones are really not that great. The droids, the evo, all these new phones just break the iphone to bits. Sure the iphone has 100,000s of apps, well guess what, the droid market has most of the same apps from the same developers.
@aSuP3RSaiYaN You always, ALWAYS have to remember that initial initial sales counters never include returns. I work at Best Buy and you have no idea how many waves of people came in, wanting to return their iPhad the same day they bought it (and I was more than glad to do the process^^) Customers themselves had recommended Adroid devices to me back when I was on Sprint, I did my own research, bought a DROID, and NEVER looked back. I LOVE my phone! The iJobs and his iLemmings can suck it.
@aSuP3RSaiYaN droid x is WAY BETTER!... droid x will be faster it can shoot 720p HD videos.. it has HDMI out.. and a much bigger screen.. oh and NO dumb keyboard. in my opinion if you want to use the physical keyboard rather then the touch screen.. then why the hell are you buying a touch screen. when you could get a none touch screen for less Money? that just make no sense to me. don't get me wrong the 1st droid and the 2nd droid are good phones. but i didn't get it cuzz of that damn keyboard
@aSuP3RSaiYaN In all honesty, the DROID 2 is almost completely similar (according to rumors and supposed "reports"), to the o.g. DROID. Only differences are a faster processor, smooth edges, a silver speaker grill instead of the gold, a different and bigger physical keyboard, and a bit of a glossier matte finish. So the differences are mainly the aspects of the hardware rather than the software. As for the DROID X, it has a bigger screen, 8 MP camera, and no physical keyboard. Questions? =)
hey im on your side But the IPHONE4 is NOT a 4G Device i see everyone is brainwashed into thinking its a 4g device its NOT..lol.Ive confirmed it with att and apple.NO 4g Capabilities.
@aSuP3RSaiYaN Its not the Iphone 4g its the Iphone 4.... And for the love of God I am not a fan boy I just dont want people to think the Iphone is capable of something good like 4g.. Its a piece of shit and it doesnt deserve to be called a smart phone.. Fuck You IphONE!
@boxersbeatbrawlers Pretty sure OS4 is a rip off of android. Lets see... Multitasking, able to set a background, bigger screen, oh and 8 megapixel camera with flash. Not to mention a huge selection of hardware. Android had all these things first. They just didnt paten them like the idiot in charge of Apple. Apple cant keep up. Sorry try again. Get on our level.
I am actually relieved that it is not a major overhaul from the Droid I have. Based on the pictures I have seen, it seems the keyboard is the only thing that really changed.
Hell ya! I never get tired of hearing DDDRRRRROOOIIIIDDD when i get text messages or e-mails. Hell my phone says DROID for everything minus calls haha. Love the droid and the droid 2 isn't gonna be something o take me away from my DROID.
IDK Its Looks Almost The Same. I Have A Droid And Its Tight. If I had A Choice Between Incredible And "Droid Does 2" I Might Get The Incredible. But To Be 100% Sure Ill Have To Wait Until It comes Out And See If I Change My Mind.. =) It Dont Look That Great But Dont Judge A Book Over Its Cover Right... =)
@boxersbeatbrawlers compete with what? the stupid Video calling phones? Let me break it to you. Video calling has been around for a LONG time and gues what? allmost NOBODY USES IT!! so why would they put it in the phone? waste of a vga camera.
front cameras are not gimmicky and very practical. when google video chat ecosystem from mobile to pc becomes reality soon over 3g, it will be very practical for transatlantic communication. keep your eyes peeled, they just bought a company which should speed up this very huge rollout. apps like fring and qik dont compare to what skype, then the google ecosystem roll out with.
@boxersbeatbrawlers Pretty sure OS4 is a rip off of android. Lets see... Multitasking, able to set a background, bigger screen, oh and 8 megapixel camera with flash.

tell that to google who just threw down a boatload of money on the technology. oh, tell it to skype who is banking their future on video. Im sorry, you arent smarter than google or skype.
@boxersbeatbrawlers ROFL. Google has done no such thing and skype is all about communication so yes that includes video. Doesn't change the fact that video com is stupid and that no one really ever uses it. You think the technology is new just because the iPhone and android devices are suddenly adding it? Front cameras on phones have been around for years, they never caught on because no one gives a shit about looking at other people's faces when making a call, give me a fucking break.
Google didn't acquire them specifically for the video, they acquired them for their voice technology and because it was pocket change for google. Again, doesn't change the fact that video chat is just an old tech no one uses, dipshit.
Wow...the same size screen, a barely faster processor (especially for those of us who overclock), and crappy motoBLUR? This phone is full of fail. Way to screw up a good thing Motorola (and this is coming from a current Droid owner who loves his Droid).
That was my understanding with the OMAP's as well, they are easily overclockable and have great graphics processing. That's why you can see Droids running Froyo on 1.2 GHz kernels doing ridiculous MFLOPs and Quadrant scores.
the specs you gave on your site didn't seem that great. i'm kinda disappointed. 3.7" screen? I was hoping for 4+. 750MHz OMAP processor. I thought it would have the 1GHz Snapdragon™, 5MP camera. not 8MP :(
@motodroidlife you cant compare processers by there Core Speed, a 750MHz OMAP is better than a 1GHz snapdragon, and a 5MP camera is fine for a phone. Now the screen size I am a lil' dissapointed in and the not having a front camera.
They put the two together. The Snapdragon has a bigger #, but the OMAP has dedicated graphics component as well as the A9 ARM cortex processor, to push the power without increasing the #.
Add to that, the original DROID used a 600MHz A8.
And the possible new one uses a 750MHz A9 with the updated graphics component. As far as I'm concerned, at least both the Snapdragon and OMAP are faster than the A4 chip in the Iphone.
@motodroidlife I think the droid 2 and droid x both come with a 1ghz omap processor. If screen size is an issue, go with the droid x, thats what im doing.
@thejoesteiger there are crappy 8MP cameras and crappy 12MP. Wait till you get one in your hand....then pass judgement. People were overclocking the original droid up to 1.2Ghz. That 750Mhz OMAP 3630 processor is a HUGE upgrade btw.
Oh, your right. Still, my argument is that 3.7 is optimal and 4.3 will most likely be uncomfortable to hold and use with one hand (I find it so about htc hd2). And Droid's 3.7 screen has about the same width as iPhone display so I guess they conisder it optimal as well.
@thejoesteiger like motodroidlife said, the OMAP is actually better then the Snapdragon despite the lower clock speed. Further to that, this will have a dedicated GPU for far better gaming performance than the Snapdragon is capable of. Dont be fooled by numbers son.
3.7'' screen is good, 4'' is too much, this is a MOBILE device, my pocket is not a backpack. 8MP are useless (5MP too) just like a 100 inches dick on an ant body.
@futuramanut I'll probably change my mind when I get a Droid in my hand(s). July/August can't get here soon enough. I don't think I will be able to hold out for the smartphone of all smartphones expected by Moto by the end of the year,
@thejoesteiger its actually runs at 1ghz but its faster than a snapdragon it has a better gpu (graphics card) the screen is a good size if you want bigger get the droid x. they have the same specs pretty much except screen size and camera specs. but its a phone if i need hd vid thats wat my flip ultra hd is for

@boxersbeatbrawlers Front cameras are pointless, no one actually uses them. Maybe a couple times before the novelty wears off.

tell that to google who just threw down a boatload of money on the technology. oh, tell it to skype who is banking their future on video. Im sorry, you arent smarter than google or skype.
boxersbeatbrawlers 1 year ago
@boxersbeatbrawlers ROFL. Google has done no such thing and skype is all about communication so yes that includes video. Doesn't change the fact that video com is stupid and that no one really ever uses it. You think the technology is new just because the iPhone and android devices are suddenly adding it? Front cameras on phones have been around for years, they never caught on because no one gives a shit about looking at other people's faces when making a call, give me a fucking break.

no you dont get a break. you have no idea what you are talking about. the ecosystem of video calls will be uniform soon, so shut your dong holster.

here is a bone you idiot, global ip solutions was aquired by google. now stfu.
boxersbeatbrawlers 1 year ago
@boxersbeatbrawlers
Google didn't acquire them specifically for the video, they acquired them for their voice technology and because it was pocket change for google. Again, doesn't change the fact that video chat is just an old tech no one uses, dipshit.

Wow...the same size screen, a barely faster processor (especially for those of us who overclock), and crappy motoBLUR? This phone is full of fail. Way to screw up a good thing Motorola (and this is coming from a current Droid owner who loves his Droid).

looks pretty sleek compare with first driod

That was my understanding with the OMAP's as well, they are easily overclockable and have great graphics processing. That's why you can see Droids running Froyo on 1.2 GHz kernels doing ridiculous MFLOPs and Quadrant scores.

Pugyxandrew 1 year ago
the specs you gave on your site didn't seem that great. i'm kinda disappointed. 3.7" screen? I was hoping for 4+. 750MHz OMAP processor. I thought it would have the 1GHz Snapdragon™, 5MP camera. not 8MP :(
thejoesteiger 1 year ago
@thejoesteiger 750 OMAP is better than the Snapdragon as far as I know.
motodroidlife 1 year ago 10
@motodroidlife oh really. I am still wondering if I should wait for Motorola's 2ghz android instead of getting a Droid 2 in August.
thejoesteiger 1 year ago
@motodroidlife Thats correct. OMAP's are way better. Do you know which model it is? 3430,34403630,etc?
misirlou234 1 year ago
@motodroidlife you cant compare processers by there Core Speed, a 750MHz OMAP is better than a 1GHz snapdragon, and a 5MP camera is fine for a phone. Now the screen size I am a lil' dissapointed in and the not having a front camera.

its slower...
jacobts 1 year ago
@jacobts We've already gone over this in previous comments.
the OMAP is more powerful than the Snapdragon, despite it's lower clock speed.
SonicProwler15 1 year ago
@motodroidlife 750MHz is slower than a 1GHz Snapdragon, but it most likely consumes less power.
VictorsChipsInc 1 year ago
@VictorsChipsInc
They put the two together. The Snapdragon has a bigger #, but the OMAP has dedicated graphics component as well as the A9 ARM cortex processor, to push the power without increasing the #.
Add to that, the original DROID used a 600MHz A8.
And the possible new one uses a 750MHz A9 with the updated graphics component. As far as I'm concerned, at least both the Snapdragon and OMAP are faster than the A4 chip in the Iphone.
SonicProwler15 1 year ago
@SonicProwler15 but they kill battery and iphone doent need it to be faster
SaceedAbul 1 year ago
@SaceedAbul The droid even with the A8 chip managed to boast battery life almost equivalent to the Iphone.
And I'm a techy, looking to develop apps, So yes, im my experience it needs to be faster.
SonicProwler15 1 year ago
@motodroidlife I think the droid 2 and droid x both come with a 1ghz omap processor. If screen size is an issue, go with the droid x, thats what im doing.
srwilli4m 1 year ago
@motodroidlife Is the OMAP dual core? So, in a sense, it would be like 1.5 GHz... right?
bears4154 1 year ago
@motodroidlife Droid 2 actually has a 1 GHz OMAP 3640 like the Droid X is using.
Son37Lumiere 1 year ago
@thejoesteiger there are crappy 8MP cameras and crappy 12MP. Wait till you get one in your hand....then pass judgement. People were overclocking the original droid up to 1.2Ghz. That 750Mhz OMAP 3630 processor is a HUGE upgrade btw.

Droid life claims 4.3 inch screen. Compare your Droid with their photos, the bottom touch button spacing is much wider, the screen is huge.
And I believe it will be incredibly uncomfortable to hold.
lukaszsw 1 year ago
@lukaszsw No, Droid life says 3.7" Droid X has a 4.3'' screen. I dont have a Droid yet :( so I can't compare
thejoesteiger 1 year ago
@thejoesteiger
Oh, your right. Still, my argument is that 3.7 is optimal and 4.3 will most likely be uncomfortable to hold and use with one hand (I find it so about htc hd2). And Droid's 3.7 screen has about the same width as iPhone display so I guess they conisder it optimal as well.
These new phones are huge anyway
lukaszsw 1 year ago
@thejoesteiger like motodroidlife said, the OMAP is actually better then the Snapdragon despite the lower clock speed. Further to that, this will have a dedicated GPU for far better gaming performance than the Snapdragon is capable of. Dont be fooled by numbers son.

3.7'' screen is good, 4'' is too much, this is a MOBILE device, my pocket is not a backpack. 8MP are useless (5MP too) just like a 100 inches dick on an ant body.

@futuramanut I'll probably change my mind when I get a Droid in my hand(s). July/August can't get here soon enough. I don't think I will be able to hold out for the smartphone of all smartphones expected by Moto by the end of the year,
thejoesteiger 1 year ago
@thejoesteiger its actually runs at 1ghz but its faster than a snapdragon it has a better gpu (graphics card) the screen is a good size if you want bigger get the droid x. they have the same specs pretty much except screen size and camera specs. but its a phone if i need hd vid thats wat my flip ultra hd is for
