idk why people say the droid x2 "blows dick" i have it and i dont really ever have a problem with it, ever, it does everything that i need it to and it does it fairly fast. the whole droid franchise is just a line up of amazing phones that are very well made
@canman543 i have one too, i dont get why so many people seem to hate it. now that devs are moving along with it recently, it has only gotten so much better with cm7.
@Tork64 Sorry I didn't specify. lol. I meant that at the end of the video he says that the only advantage the X2 has i the camera. but he forgot about the batery life at that point.
With a faster gpu (power vr sgx 540) and a faster cpu (omap 4), 1080p hd video capture, a front facing camera, global support, 16gb of onboard storage, and android 2.3 the droid 3 looks better on paper... But the droid x2 is a better overall fone and shows that hardware dosnet tell the whole story...
Droid X2 baby! love it! no dought its better than the droid 3! i could chose between the two of them, and i bearly even thought about it and told the guy, "Droid x2!"
@xxvolcomkidxx13 The bionic is a horrible phone. All the stats are there on paper, but if you've ever used one in person you would know the display is horrible. You can see lines or cross-hatchings where they grouped the pixels.
droid 3 physical keyboard STILL does not have a spell checker! Nobody ever mentions that. there is nothing worse than writing a letter to a boss or client and looking like a fool with misspelled words. keyboard is rendered useless and spell check apps are ridiculous because you have to copy/paste the doc. GRRRR!
@xCh34pShOtx I feel sorry for you. For people like me who are getting their first smartphone and even for people who are just getting another one, videos and reviews like these are amazingly helpful and majorly contribute to deciding what would be the best overall smartphone to buy.
@skievl23 are you kidding me? Got that from me? You have NO thumbs up buddy, how bout look at all my thumbs up from The droid 3,thunderbolt,and iphone 4 vid comparison? You will never get thumbed up if you are making positive statements about the IPHONE.
you should get the droid 3 ive had mine since it came out and its been pretty amazing but i upgraded from a old Motorola droid so it was a major upgrade. the only things i don't like about it, is the camera and the front facing camera, its not the great quality. the keyboard is the best i absolutely love it and mainly the whole phone is awesome! as i said before its just the camera that ruined the phone a bit, but other than that its pretty awesome!(:
@stillxxbleeding6 Thanks so much for your input! The camera really doesn't matter to me becaue the camera on the Droid x sucks too. All the phone cameras pretty much do and that is what my SLR is for lol.
@boombaur the x2 has about 25% more pixels theres no camera key on the x2 and they fixed many of the problems on the X dont get the droid X my sister got it and shes on her 5th phone in one month
Droid 3s keyboard kills on screen keyboards, i use my front camera all the time to take good pics of me with my friends, when u cant with the X2 since they took away the camera button, so good luck pressing the on screen shutter button and take a good pic of urself with friends
I have the DROID x2 running the latest version of gingerbread and I love it. The x2 ran more smoothly at the store than the DROID 3. Its screen is also amazing. I can't see the pixels. The DROID x2 also has much better screen contrast than the DROID 3. I only used the DROID 3 at the store for probably 15 minutes but in that time, I decided on the x2. It is a good looking phone. At its thickest part, it is still thinner than the DROID 3. The x2 has a great soft keyboard even with big fingers.
I think i'll be leaning towards the Droid 3 because of the physical keyboard. Though i have to admit the x2 is a solid machine with it's higher contrast camera and larger screen.
@sonicfan642 droid 3 or droid x2! my mom has the droid x2 and dad the droid x they're both awesome and very nice phones! my dad's had the x for a year and travels and talk on it non stop every day, it's still working great. i'm getting the droid 3 in the mail tomorrow!
Great review. The physical keyboard is the main reason I will (hopefully) be getting the DROID 3. I wanted the iphone 4 at 1st, but once you look into it Droids are much better than the iphones. Iphones are more "iconic" which is why most people buy it, but dont get me wrong it is still a great phone.
I'm stuck on which is more comfortable texting on. Should I go with a bigger screen or physical keyboard. anyone got the droid 3 and ended up not needing the keyboard?
@Lulu2daSmiles ya seriously. it aint a dumb question if i dont kno the answer. i dont take shit from dickheads like u either so... idk what to tell u. no questions dumb mother fucker.
@str8ballsta 1. Good one. 2. The answer to your question is extremely obvious if you even paid attention RIGHT at the beginning of the video or to any review ever where he says "John V *from PhoneArena*"
though Motorola claims it's the same camera, the original Droid X camera works flawlessly recording smooth videos without the choppy pixelated malfuctions.
Good review. I like the x2 more but it's a shame that it has froyo instead of the creative looking motorola gingerbread customization. I don't need a slide out keyboard and prefer my phones not to have one because it makes them too bulky and heavier.
It's not fair to compare the smoothness of the DROID X2 considering it doesn't have Gingerbread or the updated and optimized Blur. Since the DROID 3 has both of these...of course it's gonna be smoother and most likely faster in most areas.....
@ProtoDeez No it doesn't. It has what was a newer version of Moto Blur that looks like Gingerbread. It was launched with Froyo and was supposed to be updated about 2 weeks later, but is still waiting for the update. I think he even said it was on Froyo somewhere in the video.........
Question: Will this be sold in Europe? Normally, one wouldn't need to ask such a question, but seeing as Asian phone manufacturers have such a monopoly on the European mobile phone market, some one needs to ask.
