Motorola Droid
CARRIER: Verizon
BEST FOR: Entertainment & Media
RATING: 4/5
COMPLEX SAYS: Pushed at one point as the iPhone killer, the Droid came into the game with dope features like a faster Web browser, enhanced Google Maps, and high-quality YouTube playback. The handset's sexy unlock pattern grabs the gimmick points, but the phone's 6.4 hours of talk-time are what will get you through the day as a hustling cool guy. The phone

Matt June 15th, 2010 at 01:36 PM
Actually.... It is based on OSX - a modified version, like AppleTV, tailored to the environment in question.

No Sony Xperia X10?

I agree, I have an Xperia X10, and it's a hell of a lot better than some of these phones...
Jody June 15th, 2010 at 04:49 PM
Agreed. 1Ghz Snapdragon processor, 8.1 megapixel camera with face tracking. Media and Timescape apps. I love my X10, I just wish it had root!

Now that Apple is using every trick in the book to defend its turf (including suing competitors and making it harder to create cross-platform mobile applications), the Android and Blackberry platforms are looking more and more attractive. Apple's $220 billion valuation could shrink if it continues to put short-term gain above developer- and user-friendly policies. Google seems to mean it when they say their motto is "don't be evil". What do you think Apple's motto is?

Looks like they focused on phone that are being offered by carriers.

Lots of great Android phones are missing from list. Moreover some of them are really old and not the best devices. How about HTC Desire, HTC Legend, Sony Ericsson Xperia X10, Samsung Galaxy S, etc.

This is BS. As an AT&T rep and a Nexus one owner I know for a fact the Motorolla Backflip is one of the worst android, no, it is THE worst android phone on the market. How could you strip a google phone of google services? That and lack of ability to turn any services off, ie. 3G to save battery. The Nexus boasts the fastest processor on the market the same screen resolution as any other top android phone out there and gets all of googles updates first even without rooting your device.

Well, giving praise to the Motorola Droid just ruined your entire credibility, as I own one and can vouch that it's execution is complete crap!
