My Droid Dreams Crushed

I'm a bit biased. I love my iPhone. But I have been really curious about the Droid. Admittedly my use of the phone was limited to a non-activated version in bestbuy and a chained down one in a a Verizon Store. But my first impressions were not good. I'm a little bit more verbal at on my blog post here: http://bit.ly/2YDWox

Made by Motorola, Powered by Google, and connected by Verizon. This phone was okay, like I'm not going to say it was horrible, but compared to the iPhone it didn't add up. I think if you didn't come from the iPhone you'd probably love it. As for HTC, they make higher quality phones but I wouldn't say they're always amazing. Before the iPhone I got the HTC Fuze and it was a horrible piece of crap. And it cost $300 at the time versus $200 for iPhone at the time. More money doesn't equal good.

I would say the interface was horrible. Use an iPhone if you haven't use the droid, don't just jump into the droid without knowing first.

Droid is the software.. so u got the Motorola Droid n the HTC Droid...

I got my Motorola Droid n its jss amazing.. i really enjoy the voice search navigation u can also voice search in google.. n the 5 MP with Flash.. i can finally take pix in the dark.. also i like how i can customize my home screen any way i want to.. n the list goes on.. the iPhone is cool.. but the Droid simply has things the iPhone doesn't except the # of apps but still whos gonna use all 100000 apps?? i love the droid

If Apple ever makes a Verizon version of the Iphone I will buy two on launch day. ATT service is horrible and I tried to stay and give them a chance to make it right. But I could not use my phone at work or school 90% of the time which is where I needed to use it 90% of the time. I would rather give my 225 a month to a company that provides what they promise.

WTF?

I pjones pretty good if you get a 3Gs and upgrade to the 4 software so it doesnt have all the bugs like the actual iPhone 4, thats wat i did and it works grwat and you get alot more costomization with the update. Im not saying the iPhone is better than droid, everybody has their favorite.

If you like simple with limited options and a closed system, the iPhone is for you. If you like an open system with a ton of customization, the Droid is unbeatable.

@ryanw1284 That's the single most correct review of Verizon I have ever seen.

You, sir, win 100 Internets.

I've had and played with the iPhone a shit ton and I now have a Droid. It hands down stomps the iPhone without question.
