Design and aesthetics. The Droid RAZR is only three millimeters thick, making it slimmer than a CD case. What’s more is its sophisticated, stunningly refined stylistic design: it is actually assembled around sculpted glass, and features “diamond-cut” aluminum accents. That is a beautiful thing. The phone is also coated in scratch and damage-resistant Corning Gorilla Glass and Kevlar, making its design just as solid as it is sleek.

Processor speed. The Droid RAZR moves at lightning speed, with reported 18Mbps upload speeds and 3Mbps download speeds. Any media-rich website you wish to view on your Droid RAZR will load instantaneously, and you can run numerous programs consecutively in the background with absolutely no lag time. These qualities make the Droid RAZR perfect for multi-tasking on the go.

Battery life. One long-term issue with smart phones is battery drainage. After all, smart phones must do a lot, and that takes up a lot of battery juice. The Droid RAZR’s new Smart Actions feature is designed to extend the life of the battery so that you have to worry less about recharging, promising up to thirty percent more battery power than your average smart phone. That’s over twelve hours of extra talk time.

Multimedia. The Droid RAZR comes preloaded with a ton of useful, cutting edge applications. You can even stream high-definition videos from Netflix – a first for smart phone technology. You can also access all the sites you need to keep your business running smoothly while you’re on the go – like your email fax services, document sharing accounts, and more.

Security. Your Droid RAZR will come equipped with a multitude of high-end security features, including PIN lock, remote wiping and government-level encryption for your contacts list, calendar and email.

Storage. You will be amazed to know that, in spite of its diminutive size, the Droid RAZR actually comes with 8GB of internal storage, plus a 16GB micro SD card, which can be upgraded to a 32 GB card. That’s a lot of storage.

If you want the best and the latest smart phone technology, then the Droid RAZR is for you. After reading over this list of awesome Droid RAZR features, how can you resist not running out an grabbing this hot commodity today?

The Droid Bionic looks much like the Droid X2, in fact it’s basically a souped-up LTE 4G version of the Droid X2. It has the same soft touch back with a tapered design that rises in the camera area, a large qHD 4.3″ touchscreen and an 8 megapixel rear camera. The Bionic has a gig of RAM vs. 512 megs in the X2 (it needs more RAM to power the Webtop OS used with dock accessories), a CPU brand change, more internal storage, a larger battery (LTE needs more power) and a front video chat camera.

Like the Motorola Atrix 4G, the Bionic works with dock accessories and the Webtop software that turns the smartphone into a laptop of sorts. In fact, Motorola has really gone to town with expansion options, and there are 5 docks available for the Bionic. The most flashy and interesting is the Lapdock that’s an 11.6″ laptop minus the brains. As with the Atrix, the Bionic is the brain literally behind the Lapdock, providing the CPU, graphics processing and storage for the setup. The Bionic sits in a small cradle at the back of the Lapdock, and automatically switches to Webtop, which has a file manager, desktop, email and the Firefox 4 web browser. It sells for $300, which is more reasonable than AT&T’s price for the Atrix Lapdock (no, they’re not interchangeable), and you can get it for $200 if you sign up for a contract with a $50 or higher data plan.

There are several more affordable dock solutions including a $99 HD Multimedia dock and a $30 Webtop adapter that connects to the phone’s micro USB and micro HDMI ports (as do all the docks) and turns Webtop on, for those who want to provide their own display and Bluetooth keyboard and mouse. When connected to one of these docks, the Droid Bionic indeed rules all machines, at least the phone variety that can’t morph into a computer-surrogate. Webtop isn’t a full-featured operating system in its own right, but it can run all your installed Android apps in a window to make up for the bare bones selection of Webtop apps.

Design and Display

The Droid Bionic feels weighty in a pleasing way, and it looks like a good quality piece of hardware. Its casing is primarily plastic, but the soft touch finish and smoked chrome surround impart a quality esthetic. The front is a huge slab of Gorilla Glass, and this is a large phone. Verizon’s LTE phones haven’t been petit, largely because they sport big displays and high end components inside.

The front capacitive buttons work well, but the side volume controls are small and a bit hard to operate. The 3.5mm stereo jack is sensibly located up top and the micro USB and micro HDMI ports are on the left side. The microSD card slot is under the back cover, stacked above the LTE SIM card slot. You don’t need to remove the battery to access the included 16 gig card, but you do have to pull the battery to remove the SIM card (not that there’s generally a reason to pull the LTE SIM card).

The Bionic has a 4.3″, 960 x 540 pixel capacitive multi-touch Gorilla Glass touch screen. That’s currently the highest resolution available on Android phones, and it’s a good match for the display size in terms of font sizes and image rendering. It’s a PenTile display, which I know a few of you dislike, but we find it plenty good enough. Like most recent high end Moto Android displays, it’s very bright, has very high contrast and a cool color bias (whites tend toward blue rather than yellow). The cool colors can make things look a little stark (human flesh lacks warmth), but it’s really a matter of personal preference. The display isn’t as super-saturated as Samsung’s Super AMOLED Plus used on the Droid Charge.

4G LTE and Calling

Motorola knows how to make phones, and we’ve come to expect very good voice quality as well as strong reception. The Droid Bionic delivers very good voice quality with good noise reduction, but reception on LTE is just average. Average isn’t a bad thing, but this isn’t one of those Moto phones that could get an LTE signal in a lead-lined box. 3G EV-DO Rev. A and 1x reception on the other hand are excellent.

Data speeds on Verizon Wireless’ 4GLTE network were as usual impressive. We averaged 18 megs down and 2.5 megs up according to Speedtest.net with a 3 out of 5 bar signal in the DFW metro region. Web pages obviously download quickly at those speeds; Adobe Flash content doesn’t pause frequently to buffer and Netflix plays well. The Bionic can act as a mobile hotspot that shares its 4G/3G connection over WiFi for an additional $20/month.

If you buy the Bionic with a contract, Verizon will require that you add a data plan, and these range from $30/month for 2 gigs of data to 10 gigs for $80/month (mobile hotspot increases your data allowance by 2 gigs and costs an additional $20/month). Beware: LTE is like using WiFi, and it’s easy to consume lots of data. If you go to town streaming movies or consuming other high bandwidth content, you’ll easily go through 5 gigs in a month. So use WiFi when you can if you want to avoid higher data plan pricing tiers.

Horsepower and Performance

Dual core CPUs have been a challenge to combine with an LTE radio in smartphones. Perhaps that’s why Motorola switched from the Tegra 2 CPU to a TI OMAP dual core. We know Moto fell months behind getting the LTE radio upgrade ready for the Tegra 2 equipped Motorola Xoom, and we haven’t seen LTE phones with that CPU (the Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 is the first tablet to successfully combine the Tegra 2 and LTE). Whatever the reason, we don’t mind the Texas Instruments CPU one bit; in fact it’s a very solid performer. The TI OMAP4430 1GHz dual core CPU performs as well as the Tegra 2, and the only drawback is you lose access to the handful of Tegra Zone 3D games for Android. The phone scored 2126 in the Quadrant benchmark, and 59 in the Linpack multi-thread test. Those are excellent numbers that put the Bionic among top scoring phones.

In terms of perceived performance, the Droid Bionic feels fast, and can handle Webtop handily when docked. Even with Motorola’s custom software running on top of Gingerbread, the phone doesn’t pause or lag with several apps running in the background. It handles Adobe Flash well and does well with 3D games. Among the handful of Verizon 4G LTE Android smartphones (HTC Thunderbolt, Droid Charge by Samsung and the LG Revolution), the Droid Bionic is the only dual core, and is the fastest.

Software

Motoblur hasn’t received a whole lotta love, and Motorola’s recent high end Android phones run toned down versions of Motoblur minus the name. The broad social network and email support with contacts integration is here, as are some of Motorola’s widgets. The widgets no longer hog the screen as they did on mid-tier Motoblur phones, and the UI customization is subtle: you get Motorola’s square app icons, a launcher strip on the home screen and a side-swipeable app palette. Motorola does a good job of integrating online services and social networking, but their UI doesn’t improve on the basic Android experience (nor does it detract).

Motorola includes both business and pleasure titles like Motoprint, Citrix, GoToMeeting, ZumoCast for file sharing with your desktop (Windows and Mac) and VideoSurf, which attempts to identify videos using the camera and then provide you with related videos and info.

Camera

Motorola’s cameras haven’t impressed us, but the Droid X2 and Droid Bionic’s cameras are sharp 8 megapixel shooters. Images have a high contrast, super-sharp look that’s a bit stark, but there’s plenty of detail and not too much artifacting. Moto seems to like cool colors, and like the display, the camera favors cool colors. That’s fine for landscapes with plenty of blues and greens, but humans look a little pallid. Still, it’s one of the better camera phones on the market, and it can shoot 1080p video in MP4 format that’s reasonably smooth with good detail and modest blockiness.

Battery Life

Battery life is never a cheery subject with LTE phones, but Motorola’s aggressive power management and the relatively large 1735 mAh Lithium Ion battery put up a good fight. While Verizon’s first LTE phone, the HTC Thunderbolt had trouble making it past mid-day, the Bionic can last until you get home from work. That’s assuming average use; if you spend your workday hiding in a corner cubicle and playing YouTube and Netflix for hours, don’t expect it to last until dinner. Standby times were very good in LTE coverage areas, and the phone should last a week in standby. Verizon claims up to 10.8 hours of talk time, which is somewhat optimistic. In our tests we managed just over 8 hours.

Motorola and Verizon offer a 2760 mAh extended battery that turns the trim Bionic into a thicker but not obese version of itself. The extended battery comes with a new back cover that accommodates the larger cell.

Conclusion

No doubt, the Droid Bionic by Motorola is Verizon’s fastest phone with its dual core processor and LTE 4G combo. Despite 9 months of marketing and excitement, it’s not a world-changing phone, but we put it at the top of Verizon’s lineup of Android smartphones. The Bionic is especially appealing to those who like to accessorize and find the idea of turning a 4.3″ phone into a laptop substitute using the $300 Lapdock exciting. We like the looks, solid build quality, sharp display and good battery life by LTE standards. We know that some of you will miss the Droid Charge’s supremely vivid Super AMOLED Plus display, but that’s the price you have to pay for a dual core CPU. The Droid Bionic by Motorola is definitely our top pick on Verizon Wireless as of this writing.

Hardware / Display

The Motorola PHOTON 4G has an extremely futuristic design identity, and I love it. Instead of having rounded corners, the phone has angled edges that give it a very futuristic and almost Star Trek-like vibe. Motorola has spared no expense even with little touches like the grooved texture on the volume up/down and camera buttons on the device. On the top you’ll find the phone’s power/lock/unlock button and 3.5mm headset jack, and on the left side you’ll find a microUSB port and a mini-HDMI port. On the right side you’ll see the aforementioned volume up/down rocker in addition to a dedicated camera button.

On the rear of the device there’s a foldout kickstand that many Sprint EVO owners will be pleased to find. There’s a nice touch as well — as soon as you extend the kickstand, the phone will switch into landscape mode.

While the PHOTON isn’t the slimmest phone, it has a great weight to it and the device’s thickness is countered by perfectly rounded edges, giving the smartphone a perfect feel in your hands when it’s in use.

As far as the display goes, well, it looks like the same exact qHD screen Motorola is using in all of its recent devices, like the Motorola ATRIX 4G and Motorola DROID 3. However, I noticed less of an issue with the display on the Motorola PHOTON 4G than on other Motorola devices because of some UI changes. For instance, instead of scrolling left and right in the app drawer, the PHOTON’s app drawer simply allows you to scroll up and down, and the blurring text effect found on the Motorola DROID 3 is not present here. The display itself has fairly decent color reproduction, good black levels, and is bright as well. Due to the PenTile display, pixelation is still an issue for people that really pay attention to it, but other than that, the display on the Motorola PHOTON is rock solid.

Software

The PHOTON runs Android 2.3 Gingerbread, and while it features Motorola’s custom UI that includes MOTOBLUR elements, the phone features less customizations and custom elements than a smartphone like the Motorola DROID 3. On the home screen, widgets are straight forward with no outlandish animation effects. The app drawer simply scrolls up and down, and phone performance is very snappy. It’s almost amazing to see how two devices like the DROID 3 and PHOTON 4G, both of which match relatively evenly in the specs department, can perform and act so differently.

Besides running the latest version of Android, there aren’t too many other new features software-wise in the Motorola PHOTON 4G when compared to past versions of Motorola’s high-end Android devices. It features Motorola’s custom interface and apps like Motorola’s email app, browser, widgets, lock screen, keyboard, and more. All in all, I prefer Motorola’s custom UI to HTC’s heavy Sense UI, and in the case of the PHOTON it doesn’t seem to slow the handset down at all.

Phone / Speakerphone / Battery

Talking on the Motorola PHOTON 4G was a decent experience. Calls weren’t crystal clear, but weren’t garbled either — though the ear speaker seemed to cut in and out at times. Volume was very good overall; I actually had to turn down the volume now and again. On the other hand, you really have to hold the phone’s ear speaker just right against your ear because the opening for the speaker above the screen is extremely small. Callers on the other end could hear me pretty clearly, but they did note that the audio often sounded very rough and lacked low-end. The speakerphone performed well; the volume was good and audio reproduction sounded very accurate and not tinny whatsoever.

Battery life on the Motorola PHOTON is incredible on 3G, though on 4G the phone takes quite a hit. There’s a 1,700 mAh battery included with the PHOTON, one of the largest standard batteries I’ve seen in recent memory. All in all, battery life with a mix of 3G and 4G signals can easily power you into a day, though on just 4G, you’ll have to start looking for a charger after a few hours of heavy usage.

Conclusion

The Motorola PHOTON 4G is Motorola’s first real 4G handset, and it’s a winner. It easily trumps Sprint’s other flagship device for the summer, the HTC EVO 3D. From the phone’s styling and feel, to speed and functionality, the PHOTON 4G is one of my favorite Android devices in a long time, and easily my favorite smartphone that Sprint currently offers. It combines next-generation specifications into a reasonably slim and full package, and offers business customers and frequent travelers the ability to roam internationally — something not found on many 4G devices currently. If you can get over the fact that the Motorola PHOTON 4G doesn’t feature a physical keyboard, then this is going to be your favorite smartphone on Sprint, by a wide margin. It’s available for purchase starting July 31st for $199 with a two-year agreement.

Those of you who have a Droid 2 are likely still under contract and won’t be looking at this phone as your upgrade, but original Motorola Droid owners should definitely check out Droid the third.  As we’ve come to expect from the Motorola Droid, build quality is excellent with plenty of metal, a soft touch finish and a luxurious keyboard slider mechanism. The phone runs Android OS 2.3 Gingerbread with Motoblur software. Verizon and Moto throw in some business oriented software like Citrix, but there’s fun stuff too like the game Nova HD (playable demo) and all the Adobe Flash you can eat. Battery life is good with the stock 1540 mAh Lithium Ion battery (a consolation for not getting 4G LTE).

The design is masculine and elegant. The phone has 4 front capacitive Android buttons that work well, a micro DHMI 1.3a port, micro USB port and a 3.5mm stereo headphone jack. The small power button is up top and it’s a bit hard to press. That’s good for avoiding accidental power ons, but annoying when you actually intent to turn on the phone.  Verizon says the Droid 3 is the slimmest QWERTY slider smartphone, and that thinness, combined with a metal battery cover, means that the back of the phone sometimes gets warm to the touch. Why? Metal transfer heat and the thinner the phone, the closer the motherboard is to the casing.

The 4” Gorilla Glass display sports the same resolution as the Motorola Atrix 4G and HTC Sensation 4G; qHD 540 x 960 vs. the usual 800 x 480. We appreciate the extra pixels when viewing web pages and photos, and the 240dpi pentile display is both sharp and bright. the phone has a tricolor notification LED above the display.

The Droid 3 keyboard is one of our favorites among lateral sliders. It’s roomy, tactile and the keys aren’t slippery. New for the Droid 3 is a dedicated number row that’s highlighted in light gray vs. black for the alpha keys. Alternate characters are masked in yellow vs. white for the main characters and the backlight is an even white. The keyboard slides out with a pleasing click and locks in place; it’s definitely a sturdy mechanism. Four arrow keys handle directional navigation, and there are buttons for voice command, search and “OK”. The “@” symbol and “/” don’t require secondary key presses but there’s only one shift key (on the right).

Calling and Data

Data speeds and reception are above average on Verizon’s 3G network. We regularly got over 1 meg down and 800k up according to the Speedtest.net app, vs. 550k down on other Verizon 3G EV-DO Rev. A smartphones. Our peak download reached 1.8Mbps down and 905kbps up. Nice.  The Droid 3, like the Droid 2 Global, is a world phone: it has a Vodafone SIM card that allows you to use the phone’s GSM radio to make calls and access 3G data overseas in countries where GSM service is available. The phone is locked to Vodafone, and that means no using it with other SIM cards unless you get it unlocked. The phone is quad band GSM and it has 3G HSPDA on the 850/1900 and 2100MHz bands, and that means it technically would work on AT&T but Verizon phones typically blocks US GSM carriers.

Call quality on the other hand was disappointing. Motorola’s high end phones generally have both excellent reception and voice quality. Our Droid 3’s incoming voice sounded a bit indistinct so we had to listen closely to understand every word. Our call recipients said we sounded digitized and not terribly clear. The speakerphone is loud and clear, though clarity suffers a bit if call quality is less than stellar.

Performance

The Motorola Droid 3 has a dual core TI  OMAP4430 CPU running at 1GHz.  That’s the same CPU used in the BlackBerry PlayBook tablet, and it’s no slouch. The phone feels responsive despite the added demands of Motoblur UI enhancements. Screens draw quickly, 3D games play fluidly and Adobe Flash 10.3 works well. The phone scores an impressive 2477 in the Quadrant benchmark, putting it on par with the fastest Android dual core smartphones.

The phone has 512 megs of RAM (that’s not a lot) and 16 gigs of internal storage with 1.5 gigs of application storage and 11.3 gigs of data storage free for your use. There’s a microSD card slot under the battery cover (no need to pull the battery), but no card is included.

Software

Android OS 2.3.4 Gingerbread is on board, and that’s currently the most recent version of Google’s phone operating system. This version supports video calling in Google Talk, but alas, the Droid 3 doesn’t support it (perhaps it will come in the future?). The Droid 3 runs Motoblur software, a combination of UI enhancements and social network integration. You need not create a Motoblur account to use the phone, and the UI enhancements aren’t the over-the-top sort we saw in early Android Motoblur phones. There are a variety of Motorola widgets that you can choose to use or disable. These widgets include wireless controls, an analog clock, calendar, bookmarks, Citrix favorites,  Sticky notes, traffic, weather and social networking. . Motorola’s My Accounts app integrates Backup Assistant, Google, MS Exchange sync, email, Facebook, Flickr, LinkedIn, MySpace, Photobucket, Picasa, Twitter, Visual Voice Mail, Yahoo mail and YouTube accounts.  We’re neutral on the this version of Motoroblur: it doesn’t wow us nor does it annoy us.

Battery Life

The Droid 3′s 1540 mAh Lithium Ion battery easily powered us through a day of moderate use that included push email with 2 accounts, sporadic web surfing throughout the day, 30 minutes of voice calls, playing a few YouTube videos and taking photos and video.

Camera

Imaging hasn’t been strong in Motorola phones, but the 8 megapixel camera in the Droid 3 takes some sharp shots, particularly outdoors and in good lighting.  Photos have decent light balance, good colors and are sharp but not pixelated. There’s some noise, even in well-lit outdoor shots, but nothing beyond what we see in most 5 to 8 megapixel camera phones. The Droid 3 can also shoot 1080p video with two channels of audio, and the Moto took better video than my 8MP HTC Sensation 4G, though the Sensation takes better photos. The Droid 3′s camera application has settings for quality, flash control, panorama mode and more.

Conclusion

The Droid 3 is a solid evolution of one of Motorola’s most successful smartphone lines. It’s faster, has a higher resolution display and the camera is surprisingly decent. If you’ve got the original Droid and have enjoyed that phone, we heartily suggest you check out the Droid 3: it’s much faster and the display is definitely improved. If you’re looking for a high end QWERTY smartphone on Verizon Wireless, the Droid 3 should be on your list.

Price: $199 with a 2 year contract

The display has been upgraded from a baseline screen to a qHD display, and software customizations and enhancements have been made as well. Did one of my favorite Android handsets get even better? Hit the full review after the break to find out.

Hardware / Display

The Motorola DROID X2 is very competitive in the specs department. It’s powered by a dual-core 1GHz NVIDIA Tegra 2 CPU, Android 2.2, it has 512MB of RAM, an 8-megapixel camera capable of shooting 720p HD video, 8GB of built-in storage, and the usual Android accouterments like Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, ambient light sensor, proximity sensor, digital compass, and an accelerometer.
If you’ve used the original Motorola DROID X, the X2′s hardware is practically the same as the original. Though the DROID X2 is a tad bit darker than the previous iteration, it uses the same metal casing with a soft touch finish. Unfortunately there was one thing removed from the first DROID X and that’s the camera button, which many people will miss.

On the flip side though, the DROID X2 features an HDMI-out port positioned right next to the microUSB port, something that I think hints at accessories that the DROID X2 can dock into, possibly like the Motorola ATRIX’s laptop and multimedia docks.

The four Android buttons at the bottom of the display on the D2 bother me immensely. Aside from being narrow, if you don’t hit them perfectly right on, your key presses won’t register and it’s annoying. I would definitely have preferred touch-sensitive keys over the physical buttons.
The display is good, and it looks like the same exact display used in the Motorola ATRIX. The resolution is there, but unfortunately the screen looks pixelated to me despite bumping up the original model’s 480 x 854-pixel resolution to 540 x 960. Colors, however, are accurately displayed and the qHD screen on the Motorola DROID X2 is bright and vivid.

The resolution is close to the Retina Display on the iPhone 4, and while that looks great on paper, once you’ve compared the two, well, there isn’t a comparison. Outdoor readability was very good on the DROID X2′s display, though, and the 4.3-inch screen is great for web browsing and multimedia.
There are four physical buttons below the display, as mentioned above: menu, home, back, and search. On top of the device are the 3.5mm headphone jack and power button. The left side houses the microUSB and HDMI ports, while the right side features a volume rocker. The camera is located on back next to a dual-LED flash, and though you can see a front-facing camera above the display on the right side, it’s not activated for video calls or self-portrait images just yet.

Software

Motorola’s BLUR UI has been ever so slightly updated on the DROID X2, and while there are some nice touches here and there, there’s one thing I just can’t move past: when you tap the application icon in the bottom app icon bar, the app drawer doesn’t immediately appear. It’s like Motorola’s design and UI team just forgot about one of the most important parts of your smartphone experience… accessing apps. While this isn’t a deal-breaker at all, it’s just another UI inconsistency that shows how little some Android manufacturers seem to value not just the user interface, but user enjoyment.

There are some enhancements that I do appreciate, however, like the ability to press the home button twice to show card views of all of your seven home screens (dear Android manufactures: seven home screens is excessive), and I like how the drop down notification window is now semi-transparent — it’s a nice touch, and it Smurfs up the phone pretty nicely.

Motorola’s BLUR UI on the DROID X2 actually seems to weigh pretty heavily on the dual-core processor, as it stutters occasionally which is something I haven’t seen on a Tegra 2 Android smartphone very much before. With the dual-core CPU comes support for HD video playback and recording, however, in addition to HDMI out. Much like the Motorola ATRIX, the DROID X2 can power full 1080p HD from a connected HDMI cable including mirroring which is impressive, and the playback on a 55-inch LED display was buttery smooth.

Phone / Battery

Using the DROID X2 as a phone, well, is just plain great. Reception is fantastic, callers on the other end of the phone sounded perfect, and even though speakerphone wasn’t as loud as I would have liked, it did the trick. Motorola’s noise cancellation works well, though it can make your voice sound a bit hollow in some settings, callers told me.
After spending more than a week with the Motorola DROID X2′s battery, it’s proved to be a solid handset that can go toe to toe with the latest Android handsets on the market. Motorola seems to have come close to perfecting battery optimization because the 1,540 mAh battery the device ships with performs extremely well. With moderately heavy sporadic usage, the DROID X2 can last up to three days under my reign of terror, and just in standby mode it should last nearly a week. With consistant heavy usage, I was also able to power through an entire day on the DROID X2, which a lot of other Android smartphones have trouble doing.

Conclusion

Here’s the thing… the Motorola DROID X was one of my favorite phones on Verizon Wireless when it was released. I usually don’t prefer larger displays on devices, but the DROID X made it work for me. It was fast, I actually liked a lot of Motorola’s customizations (especially the keyboard), the device was thin, and the phone was a keeper. On Motorola’s second go, though, the DROID X2 updates don’t do enough to push the new DROID into the limelight. Compared to other handsets like the Samsung Galaxy S II, the DROID X2 feels like it should be running a Weight Watchers app as it’s just too thick to be competitive in that department. And without 4G, there’s not much incentive to buy the new DROID. It’s a better phone than the first one and I really do like it a lot, but since the goal post has moved so much since last year, a simple refresh isn’t going to cut it. It’s not a bad phone by any means, but I would just hold off for at least a couple months and see what else Verizon offers in the same vein — I’m sure we’ll all be pleasantly surprised.

When Motorola announced Motorola Cliq back in 2009, it was the attempt of the company to roll out an affordable Android QWERTY handset. With the launch of Motorola Cliq 2, Motorola has given some hardware upgrade to original Motorola Cliq and this device is equipped with features aimed to target mid-range customers. The phone is one of the newest members in the T-Mobile Android 2.2 line and has Motorola prepared this device well enough to survive in the cutting-edge competition of Android phones. Read on the Motorola Cliq 2 review to know more.

Motorola Cliq 2 Design And Looks

The design of Motorola Cliq 2 is far superior than its predecessor. The chrome bezel of the phone coupled with its gunmetal colored soft touch back gives the phone a solid feel and a great look. Motorola Cliq 2 dimension measure 116 x 59.6 x 14.5 mm which facilitates long conversation. The phone is quite bulky weighing 175 grams. The phone feels great while being held on hand and the soft plastic on the back of the device makes provides a good grip. Motorola has left no stone unturned to give a robust design to the phone.

Motorola Cliq 2 Display

Motorola Cliq 2 screen size measures 3.7 inches and TFT capacitive touch screen display displays 256K colors of resolution measuring 480×854 pixels. Legibility of the screen in direct sunlight sometimes becomes an issue with the phone.  However, the screen provides sharp visuals and details and the screen is pretty responsive to the slightest of touches. The display is equipped with accelerometer and proximity sensors. Beneath the display you will find the usual set of capacitive buttons which are very much cramped up and can cause problem when the phone is in landscape mode.

Motorola Cliq 2 Apps

The phone is equipped with several applications such as Google Search, Maps, Gmail, Google Talk, Quick Office Document Editor etc. Motorola Cliq 2 Youtube application will be loved by those who love watching Youtube videos. The Youtube app streamlines Youtube videos on your phone. Users can also download application of their choice from Android market.

Motorola Cliq 2 Specs

Motorola Cliq 2 internal memory offers a robust 1 GB of storage which allows users to store a large amount of data. The memory can be increased to 32GB with the help of microSD card. Motorola Cliq 2 OS is Android 2.2 Froyo. Though Froyo offers several features yet we felt that if it would have been Android 2.3(Gingerbread) then it would have been better.

Motorola Cliq 2 Features

The 1GHz processor and the Motoblur UI are some of the outstanding features of the device. Motorola Cliq 2 has 7 home screens and the resizable widgets are pretty useful. There is a universal inbox where you can put collect all your mails, messages etc. The phone also has support for various IMs. Motorola Cliq 2 keyboard is QWERTY in nature and initially the buttons may be a bit stiff but with time gradually ease out. The email set up of Motorola Cliq 2 is pretty easy and convenient.

Motorola Cliq 2 Camera

Motorola Cliq 2 Motoblur has just one camera. There is no Motorola Cliq 2 front camera. The primary 5 MP camera is capable of clicking pictures of resolution measuring 2560×1920 pixels. The camera is equipped with features like auto-focus and LED flash which will help you to click pictures in dim light. The quality of picture is quite decent. But there is good amount of noise when images are taken in low lighting.

Highlight

The Motorola XT800 is the new device in Milestone family. The unique feature of the handset is the Dual SIM feature. But before you get too excited it does not support 2 GSM SIM cards. It supports one GSM and one CDMA  SIM card . It comes with a decent capacitive touchscreen, a 5MP camera with dual LED flash , HDMI and runs on Android 2.1

Hardware / Design :

Motorola XT800 comes with a plastic body and a silver chrome running all over the sides of the phone. The phone comes with a reasonably large 3.7 inch screen with 480 x 854 pixels resolution.

There are 3 touch sensitive buttons below the screen- menu , home and back.

The volume controls and micro USB port are on the left side and HDMI port and camera button on the right.

The XT800 sports a 5 Megapixel auto focus camera with dual LEDs.

The battery cover has a nice pattern and makes gripping the handset very comfortable.

After removing the battery cover we can see the slots for two SIMs and a slot for memory card. The XT800 runs on Android 2.1 powered by 550Mhz TI OMAP3430 processor and 256MB RAM. The phone is powered by 1390 mAh Li-Ion battery.

User Interface / OS :

Motorola XT800 runs on Android 2.1 aka Eclair. The Android UI is mostly unaltered and there is no fancy skin except for the SIM selection overlay.

The settings app in Android comes with special settings for dual sim support where you can select the default data network. The Motorola XT800 comes with preinstalled apps such as QuickOffice, Firewall, Audio effects and Mysign.

The XT800 also comes with a special APN control widget with which you can toggle data transfer and also toggle between both CDMA and GSM data networks.

Firewall app:

The firewall app in XT800 serves as a spam filter for both calls and messages. The incoming call/sms filter monitors for spam calls and it ignores/rejects the call/sms as defined as the user. And when the outgoing call filter is enabled you can block all outgoing calls or allow calls to only certain numbers.

Camera :

XT800 comes with a 5MP auto focus cam with dualLED flash. The camera is quite ok and it comes with many predefined modes such as auto,portrait,landscape,sport,night portrait,sunset,macro and steady.

The video camera records videos at 720P with 25fps . The quality is pretty decent too .

One place where the UI is different is the music player. As you can see , the music controls are different.

It also comes with audio effects app with which you can change the audio output.

Conclusion :

Pros :

* Dual SIM with CDMA and GSM support
* Android 2.1
* HDMI out
* Firewall app
* Loud audio output

Cons :

* Slow Processor
* Below par Battery Life
* Expensive

The XT800 serves good as a Dual SIM Android phone but considering its expensive price tag we should have seen a bigger battery or a more powerful CPU. XT800 still runs on Android 2.1 still there is no news regarding its update. Full marks to Motorola for the attempt to bring a Smartphone with multiple SIM support but the price needs to be more attractive if it wants innovation to translate to sales.

T-Mobile Motorola Charm is a solid smartphone equipped with features which looks forward to enhance Android as well smartphone experience. Motorola Charm TMobile has generated much enthusiasm ever since it has been launched because of its unique styling, solid specs and high performance. TMobile Motorola Charm indeed has some charming aspects which will help Motorola to further consolidate its market as a manufacturer of high-end smartphones. Read on the Motorola Charm review to know more about this smartphone.

Motorola Charm Design And Looks

The look of Motorola Charm handset reminds you of Blackberry. With a portrait QWERTY keyboard one might think it to be a feature phone but on a close look the elegant design of the phone attracts you towards itself. Motorola Charm cases (exterior) is made up of plastic but the soft touch material on the rear of the phone really makes it comfortable to grip. Motorola Charm dimensions measure 98.4 x 67.2 x 11.4 mm which makes it a relatively compact device and with an approximate weight of around 110 grams the phone is not too heavy on your pocket either. Motorola Charm covers coupled with elegant looks make the phone a solidly constructed device.

Motorola Charm Display

The phone is equipped with a 2.8 inches capacitive TFT display which is capable of displaying 256 K colors of resolution measuring 320 x 240 pixels. The display is made up of Gorilla Glass which protects it from spills and scratches. The display is also equipped with accelerometer and proximity sensors. Sunlight legibility is quite decent, though not as good as AMOLED ones. However, viewing angles are not so good and the resolution of the display is also not that great. This has evolved as one of the major Motorola Charm cons.

Motorola Charm Applications

The phone has several integrated apps such as Facebook, Twitter, MySpace, Google Maps etc. You can also download several apps available in the Android Market on the phone as per your choice.

Motorola Charm Features

Backtrack is one of the best features of the phone. Backtrack is a navigation pad which is located behind the phone which allows you to scroll your phone without touching the phone. The keyboard of the phone is another great feature of the device. Motorola Charm keyboard is QWERTY in nature which does not slide out. The keys of the keyboard are well spaced out and gives a decent typing experience. Text and e-mail typing are very easy and smooth. The Motoblur UI of the device is another robust feature of the phone.

Motorola Charm Specs

Motorola Charm Motoblur is equipped with solid specs. The phone offers an internal memory storage of 512 MB and includes a 2GB memory card. The memory can be increased to a whopping 32GB with the help of microSD card. It runs on Android 2.1 (Eclair) which we felt is a bit outdated. With Android 2.3 out in the market, we believe that Motorola Charm OS is outdated.

Motorola Charm Camera

We were little disappointed to find that the Motorola Charm Android is equipped with a 3.15 MP camera. The camera lacks flash which makes it difficult to click pictures in dim light. The camera is however equipped with geo-tagging facilities. Motorola Charm Video too is not up to the mark as they are recorded in 3gp at 24fps.

Motorola Charm Connectivity And Multimedia

Connectivity of the Motorola Charm Mobile is quite decent with the phone supporting 2G as well as 3G network. There is also support for GPRS (Class 12), EDGE (Class 12), Wi-Fi802.11 b/g/n, Bluetooth 2.0 with A2DP profile, microUSB 2.0 cable and a 3.5 mm audio jack. The phone also has an FM radio with RDS and the music player and video player of the device are also quite good. The video player supports a wide range of formats.

Motorola Charm Accessories

During Motorola Charm unboxing we found the following accessories in the device – battery, charger, USB cable, user guide along with an extended battery with back door cover.

Motorola Charm Battery

Motorola Charm is equipped with two batteries. The device is equipped with a standard Li-ion 1130 mAh battery along with an extended 1420 mAh battery. With two batteries Motorola Charm battery life is quite decent.

Motorola Charm Price

Motorola Charm Price In USA is approximately $ 200 while Motorola Charm cost In India is approximately Rs 17000. Since price varies from time to time hence quoting Motorola Charm latest price in India is pretty difficult. We feel that price of Motorola Charm with Motoblur is slightly on the higher side.  You can buy Motorola charm from all the leading Motorola retailers across the globe.

Motorola Charm mobile is a solid device which has almost all the features required to become a solid smartphone. However, lack of Android upgrade coupled with poor display is some of the major Motorola Charm issues. But the candid look, great call quality, Motoblur UI, Backtrack navigation makes Motorola Charm a really charming handset.

Hardware

The Motorola Atrix 4G  continues Moto’s recent string of good-not-great hardware design but the specs inside this thing more than make up for some of the flaws.

There are nice curves along the back and sides of the device to make it fit comfortably in your hand and the weight is just right. I’m not in love with the super plastic feel of the back cover (nor how difficult it is to take off) but it’s a good looking and great feeling phone.

The face of the device is primarily occupied with the 4-inch qHD screen and it’s bright and responsive. It’s no Retina Display or a Super AMOLED Plus screen but it’s still really good. I don’t watch much video on my phone beyond a YouTube video or a sports clip but the 16:9 aspect ratio does come in handy if you want to watch some long-form content on a plane or on public transportation.

The face also has a notification light, a front-facing camera that works well enough and four capacitive buttons for the Android commands (Settings, Hone, Back, Search). All of these work as it should.

Moving to the sleek, curved right spine reveals a decent one-piece volume rocker. I prefer this to be two separate buttons but what can you do?

The top and bottom are relatively bare and I like that (headphone jack is on top) and the left spine has the miniHDMI port and the microUSB port.

On the back, you have a 5-megapixel camera, dual-LED flash and a label saying “HD Video.” Unfortunately, this doesn’t do full 1080p HD video like the Optimus 2X but that will be coming as a software update in the not-too-distant future. Recording at 720p HD isn’t bad at all but you can’t help but want all the features your phone is capable of at launch.

The Motorola  Atrix 4G also has a fingerprint scanner that doubles as the power/unlock button. You don’t have to turn this on and this button just becomes a standard power button and I’d recommend keeping it that way.

The setup for the fingerprint scanner is easy: swipe your left and right pointer finger a few times and it will recognize it. In practice though, I’ve found this works well about 85% of the time and that can be annoying if you’re constantly checking your phone like I am. Sometimes the fingerprint wouldn’t verify or the swipe was too fast – it just became a pain. It’s probably worth it for the security value for enterprise users but the average user may find it more trouble than it’s worth.

The Motorola Atrix 4G just isn’t about looks though, as this thing packs some beastly specs including a dual-core Tegra 2 processor and 1 GB of RAM. This should lead to an amazing experience but it doesn’t. The problem is that Android and most of the apps aren’t optimized for dual-core so you get a faster experience but not one that’s leaps and bounds better than a single core 1 GHz core for now. The 1 GB of RAM is a different story though, as switching between apps and browsing the web is a smooth-as-butter experience.

Still, buying a smartphone is a long-term investment and the Tegra 2 chip and the amount of RAM in this means that the Atrix 4G should continue to be a badass phone in a year from now and that’s always a good thing. I don’t mean to discount the current experience either, as it’s fast and zippy for the most part (more on that later).

Overall, the look and feel of the Atrix 4G are high quality and the future-proof specs mean your device will continue to be a heavy hitter for a long time.

The Laptop Dock

I sincerely understand the neato burrito factor of the Laptop Dock: having all of your information and contacts in once place is a good idea. I do think that the execution and price leave something to be desired though.

Plugging your Atrix 4g into the Laptop Dock brings up the WebTop software and it’s a solid mix of the OS X UI and Android. This gives you access to a full Firefox browser while still letting you get texts, phone calls and app notifications.

My problem with this is that the build of the device isn’t great – the trackpad is just a mess. Additionally, Android wasn’t really designed for a full keyboard, so you’re living in the WebTop software, which is still not as good desktop operating systems you’d want in that environment.

Even worse is the price of the LapTop Dock: the bundle costs $500 and forces you to get the $45 a month tethering plan. That’s about $300 for an empty shell terminal, which is about the price of a low-end netbook.

This is just not for me.

Software

The Motorola Atrix 4G uses Android 2.2  with MotoBlur and I really, really wish this had 2.3 Gingerbread on it. It runs smoothly and it’s easy to browse the web, download new apps and make calls but I don’t see why this had to launch with an older version of the software.

It’s likely because Motorola didn’t have enough time to tailor MotoBlur for the latest version of Android and that’s hooey. I don’t find that MotoBlur adds enough to warrant having an outdated version of the software. It’s not like Moto isn’t tight with Google either, as it had access to Android Honeycomb early for the Xoom.

I also had some troubling crashes with this phone and don’t know if it’s a review unit thing or a software or hardware issue. There were multiple times when the phone just wouldn’t wake up. I’d hit the unlock button and the notification light would blink but nothing would happen. This happened multiple times in my time with the Atrix 4G and this was only solved by doing a battery pull, leaving it out for a few minutes and then rebooting. Troubling.

While I’m not in love with the MotoBlur software, Moto did do a good job with its Phone Portal software because you can connect and transfer files via WiFi. You simply hit the icon and then go to a specified web page to check out all the content on your phone. Cool beans.

Other preloaded software includes AT&T Navigator, AT&T Code Scanner and the U-Verse Mobile app which lets you download shows and watch them on the go if you’re a U-Verse subscriber. You can also access the Tegra Zone to find games that are specifically optimized for the Tegra 2 dual-core chip.

Benchmarks

We put the Atrix 4G through its paces with some benchmarking apps to see how it stacks up against the competition. We used Linpack for Android, Quadrant Standard, and Neocore, ran each app three times, and averaged them out. The Atrix 4G didn’t blow away other devices but numbers aren’t everything. Here are the results:
Quadrant (System Benchmark)
Average: 2431
Linpack for Android (Processor Benchmark)
Average: 35.359
Neocore (3D Benchmark)
Average: 53.9

Web Browser, Multimedia, and Camera

Web Browser

The browser is your standard Webkit one that we’ve seen plenty of times before and it is above average for most web pages and it chew up JavaScript like a champ. One thing that really bugs me about this browser (and most Android browsers) is seeing a message saying it can’t open a new windows because I have the maximum number of windows open already. It’s not hard to dive into my windows and close things but it should be intelligent enough to just close something and let me open the page I want. This is a super, duper minor thing that has been frustrating me for a while on Android and I hope it gets fixed soon.

As for the HSPA+ 4G service on the Atrix 4G, I found it to be a similar experience to the Inspire 4G: speeds are better than 3G networks when you can get solid coverage (rarely dipped under 2 Mbps) but it pales in comparison to the HSPA+ we’ve seen from T-Mobile, the Sprint WiMax we’ve seen with a strong signal and the 4G LTE from Verizon.

Multimedia

The Atrix 4G doesn’t take any great steps to make it a better multimedia device than other Android phones except for the aforementioned U-Verse app, which is really, really good. Still, it’s not quite as good as the iPhone and its iPod/iTunes infrastructure. It should be enough for most, as Moto’s on board software makes it relatively easy to sync content but it’s not as brain-dead simple as the iPhone. I can’t wait for that Google Music to launch.

Camera

The Motorola Atrix 4G has a 5-megapixel camera with a dual-LED flash and I wasn’t too impressed with the quality of the shots. I felt there wasn’t a crispness to the shots that I’ve seen on other 5-megapixel cameras like the year-old Samsung Galaxy S. The colors seemed a little washed out too and I would have loved a physical camera button. The Dual-LED flash is nice to have but you’re still not going to get great low-light shots.

Still, the photos weren’t bad per se, but I wouldn’t want to rely on this thing as my only camera if I were going on an important trip. That’s not the case with other devices like the Optimus 2X, which I used as my primary shooter while I was in Barcelona for Mobile World Congress and I was able to achieve some wonderful shots that I’ve framed. The zooming functionality of the Atrix 4G does work kind of well, even if you get some graininess.

To be fair, the details do come out on close-up shots and it has all the features you’d expect from a device of this class including the ability to change the scene-shooting mode, add effects, have all your photos upload to an online account and quickly share with Facebook and other services. The front-facing camera isn’t going to win any awards but it’s enough to make some video calls with something like Qik.

The Atrix 4G performed admirably with the video recording capability at 720p HD but you have to hate knowing that its chipset can do full 1080p HD well.

Call Quality and Battery Life

Despite all the super apps and mobile browsing, these things are still phones first and foremost and I was hesitant about the Atrix 4G because of AT&T’s reputation in San Francisco with the iPhone. These fears were mostly unearned, as call and data coverage was strong throughout most of the Bay Area even if data fluctuated a bit. Call quality was top notch too, as many people said I sounded clear and like I was calling from a landline.

The Motorola Atrix 4G is like any modern smartphone in that you’ll get about 8 hours off of a full charge with some heavy usage. I know this because I took it out of the plug at 8:30 a.m. to take the GDC conference, didn’t bring a charger and found it dead by about 4 p.m. That’s about what we expect from these devices nowadays so investing in a second charger for work, or a microUSB cable to plug in makes a lot of sense.

The Final Take: Should you buy this?

I really wanted to fall in love with the Atrix 4G – the combination of specs and design had me drooling from the second we saw it at CES. After playing with it for a few weeks as my primary device, I think it just misses the mark on too many things for it to be the perfect phone I had dreamed it would be.

That doesn’t mean it’s a bad smartphone by any means, in fact, it’s probably the best Android device on AT&T by a wide measure (we still need more time with the Infuse 4G). The camera, lack of dual-core optimization, useless Laptop Dock and the AT&T 4G network are negatives but this thing should only continue to get better and age gracefully.

It’s not a grand slam but a triple is still not a bad thing, friends.
