A Verizon Droid Review: The Best Smartphone Ever?

Motorola has unleashed upon the cell phone landscape the first Android 2.0 smartphone

. It also has done something everyone has been anticipating for some time - it has effectively laid a body blow of epic proportions on the iPhone 3GS. Now you can have the superiority of the Verizon Wireless network with the world's best smartphone. AT&T should be quaking in its booths.

Motorola's Droid stands out from this. Offered only though Verizon, the Motorola Droid smartphone functions on the Android 2.0 platform which is significantly more efficient than the previous array of Android 1.6 phones on the market. The device is also much more social website accessibly (you can stay up to date anywhere on Facebook or MySpace)!).

One of the first things you notice about the Droid is its screen, which is truly better than that sported by the iPhone. It possesses a 3.7 inch capacitive screen with striking 480854-pixel resolution. Further distancing itself from the iPhone 3GS is the Droid's fully functional slideout QWERTY keyboard. This makes the mobile experience all that much more powerful. It is almost like having a fully functional PC in your pocket, save that it's a lot cooler and only weight a few ounces.

The Droid's internal camera feature is also outstanding. At 5.0 megapixels it rivals all phone based cameras on the market. The camera's 5.0 megapixels are enhanced with an LED flash and a fast autofocus. Further enhancing the photographic experience, the Droid possesses a full array of photo altering functions, meaning you can edit and manipulate photographs directly on the device before mobile uploading them to websites such as Facebook.

Before you do anything, you start with 16 gigabytes of capacity on the included microSD card. If you need more room (say for a collection of videos or high resolution photographs), the Motorola Droid will support a 32GB microSD card as well.

More importantly, if you are a Verizon Wireless customer, there isn't another smartphone in the Verizon selection that remotely rivals the Droid. The Storm2 is great and all, but it does not have the multimedia fuctionality and crisp streaming capabilities of the Droid. Plus, if you are set on the iPhone, you would have to sign up with AT&T, which means you are sacrificing both coverage and network speed.

Also contrasting with AT&T the Verizon 3G data network actually has the capacity to enjoy all of the Droid's features. Live streaming video and tv is seamless on the droid, and the internal graphics processor makes it entirely so.

The Droid doubtlessly is the future of Verizon Wireless. Even the iPhone's strongest feature, its app selection, is prone to competition from Motorola and Verizon. With WiFi, Bluetooth and every other connectivity mode you could possibly want, the Droid delivers across the board. Now you can ditch AT&T's poor call service and the iPhone without a twinge of guilt. You simply will not be sorry.
