Motorola Droid X: Faster, Slimmer, Bigger Screen

Motorola has announced the launch of Droid X, which the company will be launching in U.S on 15^th of July. The Droid X has a faster process with 1GHz processor as compared to Motorola Droid (Milestone in India) 600 MHz. The screen size of Motorola Droid X is also bigger with the 4.3 inch display as compared to 3.7 inch display of Motorola Droid.

The Droid X runs on Android 2.2 and has been preinstalled with Adobe Flash Player 10.1. The Motorola Droid X is better than Motorola Droid in many ways. For example, Droid X has a 8 megapixel camera and HD camcorder, as well as DLNA and HDMI connectivity. Like other android phones, the Motorola Droid X has access to Android Market, which has 65,000 applications so far.

Motorola has also improved some features for the enterprise. The Motorola Droid X will have new tools such as cloud-to-device messaging, Exchange and Gmail for business and enhanced enterprise functionality. Sanjay Jha, CEO of Motorola Mobile Devices and Home business said, “Enterprise users will also find DROID X appealing with features including push e-mail and live widgets for e-mail and calendar updates.”

Motorola has announced that Verizon wireless customers in U.S. will be able to get their hands on the Droid X on 15^th July at the price of $199 with a 2 years contract. Motorola Droid was launched 9 months ago in the U.S and it took almost 7 months for it to come to India. We are hoping the process will be much faster this time around and the pricing will be as reasonable at the Motorola Milestone price tag of Rs. 28,600. We will keep you updated with the India launch date and price. It was a great competition between iPhone 3G, 3GS and Motorola Droid, now it will be interesting to see which phone fares better between iPhone 4 and Droid X. Here is the hands-on video of the handset.
