You Guys Should Read This Top Android Review. Blazing Fast Verizon Wireless 4G LTE Speeds and The Power Of Google Android Makes This A Great Business Phone For Anyone.]]></description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://droidcellphone.com/store/android-phones/motorola-android-phones/motorola-droid-pro-android-phone/"><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-4455" title="droid-pro-002" src="http://droidcellphone.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/12/droid-pro-002-300x224.jpg?9707a5" alt="Motorola Droid Pro" width="300" height="224" /></a>We where able to get our hands on a Motorola Droid Pro to review. Though the Pro Phone was under pre order status we received ours 2 days after ordering it online from Verizon. The company has always been good about free shipping and getting pre orders out soon as the inventory is available. Basically Verizon wants to give the online customers all the advantages because it saves them money.<br /> When I first picked up the Droid Pro I was amazed how light it was. Compared tp the A855 or Incredible it is feather weight. The over all form of fight in hand is comfortable and easy to operate with one hand.<br /> The keyboard of the Droid Pro is tiny compared to some business phones like Blackberry, but very usable for business use. The keys are smaller towards the top to make mistakes less likely. The user can fire off a email or text just as fast if not faster than other devices because of fast access to the apps via the touch screen.<br /> The Motorola Droid Pro has the best of both worlds with the full keyboard and touchscreen. The user can hop back and forth between the two and be productive.<br /> <a href="http://gan.doubleclick.net/gan_click?lid=41000000022938435&amp;pubid=21000000000135085"><img src="http://gan.doubleclick.net/gan_impression?lid=41000000022938435&amp;pubid=21000000000135085" border="0" alt="National Offer 144x144" /></a></p><p>As for speed the Droid Pro is off the Google Map when opening pages online in both 3G and Wireless mods. Verizon has just launched LTE 4G in the Boston area (our home city) , but we have not noticed any acceleration as of yet.  We are hoping the upcoming Android 2.3 Gingerbread and the LTE 4G will kick the Droid Pro in to high gear.<br /> In conclusion the Droid Pro can surly take market share from Blackberry and RIM, but those use to the later will need time to adjust. Those who are entirely new to Smartphones will gel with this device right away.</p><h4><a title="More About Motorola Droid Pro" href="http://droidcellphone.com/store/android-phones/motorola-android-phones/motorola-droid-pro-android-phone/" target="_self">More About Motorola Droid Pro</a></h4><p><a href="http://droidcellphone.com/store/android-phones/motorola-android-phones/motorola-droid-pro-android-phone/"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-4464" title="droid-pro-004" src="http://droidcellphone.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/12/droid-pro-004-300x224.jpg?9707a5" alt="Motorola Droid Pro" width="300" height="224" /></a></p><p><a href="http://droidcellphone.com/store/android-phones/motorola-android-phones/motorola-droid-pro-android-phone/"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-4465" title="droid-pro-003" src="http://droidcellphone.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/12/droid-pro-003-224x300.jpg?9707a5" alt="Motorola Droid Pro" width="224" height="300" /></a></p><p><a href="http://droidcellphone.com/store/android-phones/motorola-android-phones/motorola-droid-pro-android-phone/"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-4467" title="droid-pro-006" src="http://droidcellphone.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/12/droid-pro-0061-224x300.jpg?9707a5" alt="Motorola Droid Pro" width="224" height="300" /></a></p> ]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>0</slash:comments> </item> <item><title>Test Freaks Review Of Motorola Bravo</title><link>http://droidcellphone.com/reviews/test-freaks-review-of-motorola-bravo/</link> <comments>http://droidcellphone.com/reviews/test-freaks-review-of-motorola-bravo/#comments</comments> <pubDate>Wed, 01 Dec 2010 14:26:43 +0000</pubDate> <dc:creator>The Robot Droid</dc:creator> <category><![CDATA[Reviews]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Bravo]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Motorola]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Review]]></category><guid isPermaLink="false">http://droidcellphone.com/?p=4448</guid> <description><![CDATA[The big holiday season is almost here and mobile phone providers aren’t going to be left behind all the interesting sales going on in stores and online.

What are so great about this holiday season are the cool gizmos that we can now afford to buy. Since retail stores are each launching their own special sales, there are mobile phone providers who are doing their bit too. AT&amp;T is offering several interesting deals on its Android-based smartphones while T-Mobile too is getting on with its Christmas sales.</p><p>One such phone on sale now is Motorola’s Bravo, which is an Android-based phone that was first unveiled at this year’s CTIA. Back then, there were a lot of expectations riding on this phone and it’s fair to say that since its release, no complaints have been received. Launched by AT&amp;T, the Motorola Bravo is equipped with several features from its network provider including free access to AT&amp;T nationwide hotspots from the phone’s WiFi feature. Aside from WiFi, the phone features HSPA, Bluetooth and GPS. The phone has up to six hours of battery life on talk time and up to 384 hours of standby time.  The phone features one-touch access to several popular Google mobile services such Google Search by Voice, YouTube and Picasa.</p><p>The Motorola Bravo smartphone is packed with interesting features including a nice 3.7-inch touchscreen display and a moderate 3-megapixel camera. Powered by an 800MHz CPU, this phone runs on Android 2.1 and comes with MOTOBLUR UI, which allows easy access to social networking sites like Facebook, Twitter and MySpace. There are Motorola Bravo reviews that will help decide on whether the phone is right for you. Looking for the best deal on the Motorola Bravo smartphone is not a worry with popular sites at your service to help you with this. The Motorola Bravo is currently available with a rechargeable battery, a charger, a USB cable, a 2GB microSD memory card and a quick start guide.<br /> <a href="http://www.testfreaks.com/cellphones/motorola-bravo">Motorola Bravo reviews</a> VIA Test Freaks</p> ]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>0</slash:comments> </item> <item><title>Android Makes Impact In Europe With Galaxy S and X10 Mini at EISA</title><link>http://droidcellphone.com/reviews/android-makes-impact-in-europe-with-galaxy-s-and-x10-mini-at-eisa/</link> <comments>http://droidcellphone.com/reviews/android-makes-impact-in-europe-with-galaxy-s-and-x10-mini-at-eisa/#comments</comments> <pubDate>Wed, 18 Aug 2010 13:48:48 +0000</pubDate> <dc:creator>The Robot Droid</dc:creator> <category><![CDATA[Featured]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Reviews]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Awards]]></category> <category><![CDATA[EISA]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Galaxy S]]></category> <category><![CDATA[X10 Mini]]></category><guid isPermaLink="false">http://droidcellphone.com/?p=3531</guid> <description><![CDATA[The Awards Being Presented To Android Phones Are Growing Fast.

Our brethren on the other side of the pond haven't had as many phones to pick from as we do, but they have some of the best.<br /> Notably the Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 Mini and The Samsung Galaxy S have made a impacted on the European market. Both these devices are powerful enough to make a impact on the "European Sound and Image Association" as they have picked these two for their "Mobile Device Awards 2010 and 2011". The ESIA moves on more of a shopping season calendar as the reviews and awards are handed out shortly before the beginning of The Holiday Shopping Season. The Awards and reviews are published at this time of year so consumers can use them to research gifts etc.</p><p><a href="http://droidcellphone.com/reviews/android-makes-impact-in-europe-with-galaxy-s-and-x10-mini-at-eisa/attachment/galaxy-s-eisa-award/" rel="attachment wp-att-3532"><img src="http://droidcellphone.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/Galaxy-S-EISA-Award.jpg?9707a5" alt="EISA Award Galaxy S Android Phone" title="Galaxy-S-EISA-Award" width="200" height="172" class="alignleft size-full wp-image-3532" /></a> <a href="http://droidcellphone.com/store/android-phones/samsung-android-phones/samsung-galaxy-s-android-phone">European Smartphone 2010-2011 - Samsung Galaxy S GT-I9000</a>:</p><p>What EISA had to say, "Based on the Android operating system, the Galaxy S is a ‘jewel in the crown’ for demanding users wanting to be connected, entertained and updated on the move. It is equipped with a huge 4-inch (10.16 cm) AMOLED, 800x480 pixel touch screen providing an exceptional viewing experience. The on-board 5 megapixel camera is without flash, but with video recording of 720p. Interconnectivity brings together Bluetooth 3.0, Wi-Fi with DLNA, a hotspot function and AllShare which allows content to be shared between the mobile and Samsung TVs and Blu-ray players. It’s a well made device that should capture the attention of every mobile phone lover."</p><p><a href="http://droidcellphone.com/reviews/android-makes-impact-in-europe-with-galaxy-s-and-x10-mini-at-eisa/attachment/x10-mini-eisa-award-2010-2011/" rel="attachment wp-att-3533"><img src="http://droidcellphone.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/x10-mini-eisa-award-2010-2011.jpg?9707a5" alt="Xperia X10 Mini EISA Award" title="x10-mini-eisa-award-2010-2011" width="200" height="172" class="alignleft size-full wp-image-3533" /></a> <a href="http://droidcellphone.com/store/android-phones/sony-ericsson-android-phones/sony-ericsson-xperia-x10-mini-android-phone">European Mobile Phone 2010-2011 - Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 mini</a>:</p><p>What EISA had to say, "he Xperia X10 mini from Sony Ericsson is a very small and stylish mobile phone. Nonetheless, it delivers excellent performance with a comprehensive range of features such as GPS, Wi-Fi, 3G and a 5 megapixel camera with flash. The phone runs on the Android platform and offers users the full benefits of a much larger device although it’s touch screen size is just 2.55-inch (6.48 cm) . Its small size and weight and variety of vivid case colours make it perfect for introducing the fairer sex to smartphone technology"<br /> Both of these Android Phones are available from Vodafone.<br /> [Source eisa.eu]</p> ]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>0</slash:comments> </item> <item><title>Ben And Jerrys Cherry Garcia Froyo Tasting and Review</title><link>http://droidcellphone.com/reviews/ben-and-jerrys-cherry-garcia-froyo-tasting-and-review/</link> <comments>http://droidcellphone.com/reviews/ben-and-jerrys-cherry-garcia-froyo-tasting-and-review/#comments</comments> <pubDate>Wed, 11 Aug 2010 17:10:49 +0000</pubDate> <dc:creator>The Robot Droid</dc:creator> <category><![CDATA[Featured]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Reviews]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Cherry Garcia]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Froyo]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Frozen Yogurt]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Jerry Garcia]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Review]]></category><guid isPermaLink="false">http://droidcellphone.com/?p=3389</guid> <description><![CDATA[Ben and Jerrys Cherry Garcia Review.

Good news for all of us looking to eat better. It is.<br /> The Ben and Jerry's Cherry Garcia Froyo is just as good if not better than the ice cream version. The pint of Froyo was packed with cherry's and sweet, just as the original. Much lighter the dairy version which could be dangerous. Delicious to say the least.<br /> Living in Boston we are known for eating more ice cream than any other part of America. Trips to the beaches of Cape Cod are filled with stops at 4Seas Ice Cream in Craigville Beach. We can honestly say after eating lots of home made products The B&#038;Js Froyo is a treat you don't want to pass up.<br /> Froyo and frozen yogurt are as much a San Francisco thing as Jerry Garcia. Its only fitting that the bear have a Froyo. We miss you Bear.</p> ]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>0</slash:comments> </item> <item><title>CNET Editors Choice Award Gos To The HTC Droid Incredible (Review)</title><link>http://droidcellphone.com/reviews/cnet-editors-choice-award-gos-to-the-htc-droid-incredible-review/</link> <comments>http://droidcellphone.com/reviews/cnet-editors-choice-award-gos-to-the-htc-droid-incredible-review/#comments</comments> <pubDate>Mon, 03 May 2010 01:20:26 +0000</pubDate> <dc:creator>The Robot Droid</dc:creator> <category><![CDATA[Reviews]]></category> <category><![CDATA[CNET]]></category> <category><![CDATA[HTC]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Incredile]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Phones]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Review]]></category><guid isPermaLink="false">http://droidcellphone.com/?p=1430</guid> <description><![CDATA[CNET Review Of HTC Incredible Is Like All The Others. Best New Phone, Best Droid Yet, The Real iPhone Killer. They All Love The HTC Incredible. The Newest Droid.]]></description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-1432" title="android_cnet_logo" src="http://droidcellphone.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/android_cnet_logo.gif?9707a5" alt="" width="180" height="150" /></a>When you put an adjective like Incredible in a product name, it better deliver the goods, and the HTC Droid Incredible for Verizon certainly does that and then some. The smartphone boasts the latest capabilities of Android 2.1, which are then enhanced by HTC Sense. However, what's most impressive about this device is its speed; it's hands-down one of the fastest smartphones we've ever tested. When you combine that with the sleek design and robust features, well, that's when you have an Editors' Choice Award winner on your hands.<br /> Droid Incredible received Editors Choice Seal in April 2010. The award is given to exceptional technology every month. Recieving the Editors Choice from CNet is a honor especially when your device has only been out a week or two. We have only included a snapshot of the review which mirrors most all other HTC Droid Incredible Reviews. The title are all similar. Best New Smartphone, Best Rated Smartphone, Best Droid, Incredible Is True Super Phone, Best HTC Droid, and they go on. We haven't read one bad review about any The Incredible Cell Phone.</p><p><a href="http://droidcellphone.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/cnet-april.jpeg?9707a5"><img src="http://droidcellphone.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/cnet-april.jpeg?9707a5" alt="" title="Droid Awards" width="49" height="74" class="alignleft size-full wp-image-1434" /></a>Out of everything, though, the one aspect of the Droid Incredible that absolutely knocked our socks off is general performance. The smartphone is armed with a 1GHz Snapdragon processor and 512MB ROM and 512MB RAM and the Droid Incredible was one of the most responsive and fastest Android devices; heck, one of the fastest smartphones in general, that we've tested to date. The handset handled every task we threw at it without stumbling, and even with six open apps open, the Incredible never slowed down.<br /> Just like the Legend and Desire, the Droid Incredible runs the newer version of HTC Sense, which was announced at Mobile World Congress 2010. This includes a revamped mail widget that can take you to a list view of all your e-mail instead of just one message at a time. Once in the mail app, there's a handy tabbed interface at the bottom that lets you view unread messages, attachments, meeting invites, and more with a simple touch. The Agenda widget also now displays your whole agenda on the screen, and like the HTC HD2, you get an animated weather widget right on the home screen that automatically displays the current conditions based on your location. <a href="http://reviews.cnet.com/smartphones/htc-droid-incredible-verizon/4505-6452_7-34064029.html?tag=contentMain;contentBody" rel="nofollow">Source</a> [CNET.COM]</p> ]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>0</slash:comments> </item> <item><title>PC World Review Says HTC Droid Incredible Is Number One</title><link>http://droidcellphone.com/reviews/pc-world-review-says-htc-droid-incredible-is-number-one/</link> <comments>http://droidcellphone.com/reviews/pc-world-review-says-htc-droid-incredible-is-number-one/#comments</comments> <pubDate>Thu, 29 Apr 2010 02:54:39 +0000</pubDate> <dc:creator>The Robot Droid</dc:creator> <category><![CDATA[Reviews]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Droid Review]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Incredible Review]]></category> <category><![CDATA[PC World]]></category><guid isPermaLink="false">http://droidcellphone.com/?p=1246</guid> <description><![CDATA[PC World Review Says HTC Droid Incredible Is Number One.]]></description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img src="http://droidcellphone.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/droid-incredible-keys-1-150x150.jpg?9707a5" alt="" title="droid-incredible-keys-1" width="150" height="150" class="alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-1249" /></a> "The best of the Droids on Verizon, the Droid Incredible ($200 with a two-year contract from Verizon) impresses with its speedy user interface, gorgeous AMOLED display and fun Sense user interface. Other than some minor design qualms, this smartphone truly lives up to its name."</p><p>"Design-wise, the Droid Incredible appears fairly similar to the Nexus One, but it is essentially a CDMA version of the HTC Desire, which launched last February in Barcelona, Spain. The Droid Incredible has an 8-megapixel camera (as opposed to the Nexus One and Desire's 5-megapixel shooters). The Droid Incredible also has a strange rubberdized "topographic" battery cover, which I could have done without.

Its Droid Incredible, which will be available April 29 from Verizon  Wireless, combines a brilliant screen, Google's  Android operating software, a great camera and slick design in a thin, light package -- all the ingredients for a fab phone. It's $200 with a two-year contract."<br /> "Like another handset made by HTC, Google Inc.'s Nexus One, and like Motorola Inc.'s original Droid, the Incredible has a crisp, responsive and spacious screen -- 3.7 inches diagonally, which is slightly bigger than the iPhone (3.5 inches). " <a href="http://www.nytimes.com/aponline/2010/04/21/business/AP-US-TEC-Digital-Life-Tech-Test-Droid-Incredible.html?_r=1&#038;src=busln&#038;scp=2&#038;sq=Incredible&#038;st=cse" rel="nofollow">Source</a></p><p>The times review is typical of most general news publications. They mention some great things but then pick at issues that are old news. The lack of Flash 10.1 and the missing keyboard, but help publicize technology to the masses. We fully expect to see a large group of users moving from AT&#038;T iPhone to the Android Platform as SmartPhone Users learn about the advantages of the OS. Now that Adobe has given up on Flash for iPhone that issue will be gone very soon. We hope.</p> ]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>http://droidcellphone.com/reviews/new-york-times-review-weighs-in-on-htc-incredible-droid/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>0</slash:comments> </item> </channel> </rss>
