Motorola DROID 4 vs DROID RAZR MAXX vs entire Verizon Android lineup

Posted on Feb 15, 2012 by MG1

If you head to a Verizon Wireless store today looking to purchase an Android smartphone, you’re very likely going to be inundated by offers to purchase Verizon’s own unique DROID line. I’m here to tell you that the current top choices for these Motorola-made smartphones aren’t necessarily your best choice for Android or 4G-laden devices – in fact they’re not even really your best choice for Motorola-made devices on Verizon. Instead, have a quick glance at some comparisons to some lesser-advertised devices sitting right next to these hero phones to gain a better understanding of what Verizon really has to offer.

iFixit pries apart the Droid 4, strips slider to see its silicon insides

iFixit pries apart the Droid 4, strips slider to see its silicon insides

Posted on Feb 14, 2012 by MG1

Verizon's Droid 4 was officially released last week, so naturally, iFixit spent the weekend pulling the phone apart for all to see. Among the nuggets of knowledge uncovered during the teardown is the discovery that the fourth iteration breaks from Droid tradition in a couple of not-so-positive ways. First off, Moto decided to integrate the keyboard into the motherboard, meaning if one of your keys quits working, you'll have to replace the motherboard, too. Not only that, but the Droid 4's battery is purportedly no longer user-replaceable, though iFixit's deft disembodied hands were able to pry it loose with some effort. It's not all bad, as the teardown did confirm that the handset does, in ...

Motorola Droid 4 gains DLNA certification as it slides into Verizon

Motorola Droid 4 gains DLNA certification as it slides into Verizon

Posted on Jan 09, 2012 by MG3

It should come as no surprise that Motorola's upcoming Droid 4 smartphone would carry a DLNA certification -- just like its predecessor, the Droid 3 -- but if there were ever any doubt in your mind, then wonder no more. This handsome slider destined for Verizon Wireless has just earned its media chops from the Digital Living Network Alliance, which further solidifies indications of its near-term arrival. Sure, we're definitely looking forward to Moto's latest, although perhaps we're not quite so anxious as Best Buy.

Motorola DROID 4 cases ready to go out the door sans the phone

Motorola DROID 4 cases ready to go out the door sans the phone

Posted on Jan 04, 2012 by MG1

What good is a case for a phone that hasn't been announced yet? Well, you could try to fool everyone around you by putting it to your ear and faking a conversation. "Yeah, Mom. She walked out on me again," you could say, and that would probably attract some attention. Or, you could give it to someone as a belated holiday gift and let him/her figure out how to buy the phone. But perhaps the best use of the case is as a tool that tells us that the next model in the distinguished DROID series is close to getting launched. And that is the situation with the Motorola DROID 4 as a couple of photographs show that cases for the handset are already being shipped out to some retailers.

Is this FCC filing for the Motorola DROID 4?

Is this FCC filing for the Motorola DROID 4?

Posted on Dec 06, 2011 by MG1

A new filing from Motorola has just passed through the FCC, but unfortunately there isn't enough identifiable information to pinpoint what device it is, although the smart money is on the DROID 4.
The FCC filing is for a Verizon device with a world-phone radio compatible with CDMA/LTE, GSM 850/1900, WCDMA and EDGE. Although, the filing notes that the GSM/EDGE/WCDMA options "have been disabled by firmware and are SIM locked for all US carriers", so this device is Verizon-only. As we said, there is nothing to confirm this as the DROID 4, but the information all fits.

DROID 4 accessories leaked: lapdocks, HD docks and wireless keyboard with trackpad

DROID 4 accessories leaked: lapdocks, HD docks and wireless keyboard with trackpad

Posted on Nov 29, 2011 by MG1

Well what do you know – Verizon Wirelessmay actually launch the DROID 4 on December 8th, as we reported before. Or at least the growing number of information we’re getting about the QWERTY keyboard Android smartphone suggests so.
The latest info we got about Moto’s upcoming device shows us compatible accessories. As you’re about to see, future DROID 4 owners we’ll be able to connect it to a LapDock, HD dock or wireless keyboard with trackpad. I can’t recall seeing such keyboard before and I’m pretty confident it will also be able to sing along other Motorola smartphones like the DROID RAZR, DROID Bionic and Photon 4G.

Hit the source link to view a more pics and the chart, which explains how we've gone from the Droid 2 last year, to the Droid 3 just a few months ago, to the Droid 4 / RAZR combo attack Motorola and Verizon could be unleashing as soo...

Droid 4 launch to coincide with Galaxy Nexus in US?

Droid 4 launch to coincide with Galaxy Nexus in US?

Posted on Nov 25, 2011 by MG1

Motorola's much anticipated Droid 4 is set to launch the same day as Samsung's Galaxy Nexus phone. A Verizon document points to a 8 December arrival for the new phone.
The launch date hasn't been totally confirmed for the new device and it is important to remember that the Galaxy Nexus isn't set in stone either.
More exciting however is the spec sheet listed on droid-life.com, which shows off what the Droid 4 is going to be capable. A 4 inch super AMOLED display, Razr looks and backlit 5 row keyboard are just the start of this feature packed handset. Moto has always performed with its Droid handsets and this Gingerbread powered release will likely be the same. The 1080p capable cam on the b...

Posted on Nov 08, 2011 by MG1

We recently were able to show you some pictures of the Motorola DROID 4, and the phone now shows up in Verizon's internal testing system and on another inventory list. Between that information and what we told you about previously, the DROID 4 will have a 4 inch screen like the DROID 3, but this time it will be a Super AMOLED Advanced screen with qHD resolution-similar to what the 4.3 inch screen on the Motorola DROID RAZR is made of.
The internal testing data confirms earlier suspicions that the Motorola DROID 4 will be running over Verizon's LTE 4G network. It will be the first of the QWERTY-equipped Motorola DROID line to offer LTE connectivity. Also, the internal testing data shows that...
