Unless you've been living under a rock, you probably know already that
Verizon is going to debut an Android powered mobile phone this month.
Things have confirmed and today, after getting our hands on a bunch of
photos and specs we managed to understand what Big Red and Moto have
been up to with their Motorola Droid (formerly known as Sholes or Tao).
The new Motorola Droid comes with a slide-out keyboard with a soft-touch
rubberized finish, that adds to its thickness making it just slightly
thicker than the iPhone 3GS. Running on v.2.0 of Android with a
significantly upgraded user interface, there's a Texas Instruments
OMAP3430 processor (and is hailed as the fastest Android smartphone
ever) under the stylish metal chassis.
On top of these all, the highlight of the new Motorola Droid seems to be
the rather large capacitive display its amazing contrast and brightness.
Another interesting feature of the Droid is the desktop cradle/charger
that comes inside the box, turning your phone into a real multimedia
station by displaying the local weather, time or any other things of
interest.
So what do you think? Should Apple feel the shivers down the spine?
Many thanks to our friends from BGR for the images.
