The Motorola Droid 2 will be available for presale on Verizon’s Web site starting August 11 and will be in stores August 12 for $199.99 with a two-year contract and after a $100 mail-in rebate. As expected, the smartphone will ship running Android 2.2, which among other things includes support for Adobe Flash Player 10.1. The Droid 2 can also be used as a mobile hot spot for up to five devices, but you will need to sign up for Verizon’s 3G Mobile Hotspot Service, which costs $20 per month. Design-wise, the Droid 2 measures 4.58 inches tall by 2.38 inches wide by 0.54 inch thick and features a 3.7-inch WVGA (480×854) capacitive touch screen. One of the complaints of the original Droid was the flat keyboard, so Motorola improved it this time around and raised the keys. In addition to the physical and virtual keyboards, the smartphone will also come preloaded with Swype. Other improvements include a faster 1GHz TI OMAP processor and double the RAM (512MB). The Droid 2 also features a 5-megapixel camera, DLNA support, and 8GB of onboard memory. A new capability of Froyo allows you to save apps both to the main memory and to an SD card, and Verizon is shipping the phone with a 8GB microSD card. The Android Market has more than 70000 apps in the catalog now, but the smartphone will also come preloaded with some extras, such as NFL Mobile and Blockbuster On Demand. One final highlight we weren’t expecting but are certainly excited about (or maybe it’s just me): Verizon will …Read more...(271 words, estimated 1:05 mins reading time)
The Motorola i1 is one such handset–it’s the first Google Android phone for Boost Mobile, and it’s also the first Google Android smartphone to run on Nextel’s iDEN network. It’s quite a rugged device–for a touch screen phone anyway–and it’s also the only Android phone to support push-to-talk, which is a big deal if you’re a Boost or Nextel customer. However, the i1 is saddled with Android 1.5, which is a relatively obsolete version of the operating system, and the iDEN network doesn’t have fast data speeds. However, Motorola may release a software update in the future, so we’ll keep hoping for improvements on that front. Overall, it’s certainly not the best Android phone we’ve seen, but it makes for a serviceable touch-screen smartphone, especially if you’re an iDEN die-hard. The Motorola i1 is available for $349.99, but bear in mind that price without a contract from Boost Mobile. Design While it might seem like a run-of-the-mill Android phone at first glance, Motorola dressed the i1 up with a decidedly rugged spin. Indeed, the handset is clad in what feels like a rubber and hard plastic casing, and the overall phone feels sturdier than most. Measuring 4.65 inches long by 2.34 inches wide by 0.5 inch thick, the i1 is not too heavy at 4.63 ounces, and its back cover has a soft touch surface for a more comfortable feel in the hand.

Year 2010 is the year with release of many new smart phones. The market is especially hot due to the competition between the big brands such as the Motorola Droid X, HTC EVO 4G and the Apple iPhone 4.
If we look at these leading phones in details, Motorola Droid X is more comparable with HTC EVO because both are without 4G connectivity and a camera on the front side. Their designs are based on Android 2.1 with 4.3 inch touchscreen, 8 mega pixel camera, 1GHz processor, HD video recorder, Wi-Fi, 8GB internal memory and high capacity micro SD that support 40GB storage space.
