iphone4 vs droid x

Iphone 4 Display
3.5 inch screen resolution 960×640
614,000 pixels

Droid X Display
4.3 inch screen resolution 854×480
409,000 pixels

So from looking at the specs, you have a larger screen with the Droid X, so you would think the Droid X display demolishes the Iphone 4 display. Well, you are wrong. You have to look at both of these phones from a pixel standpoint. More pixel density means crisper graphics, sharper text, less scrolling when your looking at text and browsing. So from a display standpoint.
Winner : Iphone 4

Iphone 4 Processor
Apple A4 processor

Droid X Processor
Texas Instruments OMAP processor running at 1.0 GHz.

The Iphone 4 processor is powerful and efficient. The Iphone 4 processor will make multitasking easy so you are able to browse, play music, and place FaceTime calls. The speed is clocked at 1ghtz. The Droid processor is very similar to the Iphone 4. The TI processor in the Droid X is faster than Motorola’s previously released snapdragon processor. Both processors make multitasking easy. We call this category a draw as both phones are screamers.
Winner: Draw

Iphone 4 Storage and Value

Iphone 4 16GB – $199
Iphone 4 32GB – $299

Droid X Storage and Value

8GB internal memory installed
16GB microSD card already installed
24 Total GB – $199

From a storage/value standpoint, the Droid X is clearly the winner because you have the ability to remove the 16GB and replace it with a 32GB. The maximum amount of Droid X storage is 40GB.
Winner: Droid X

Iphone 4 Keyboard
Portrait View & Landscape View

Droid X Keyboard
Portrait View & Landscape View

Comparing keyboards, the Droid X keyboard is impressive. It is well spreadout, easy to use. If however, you are entering text on both of these phones, they are very similar. The Droid X has an added feature which includes the microphone. If you click the microphone option, you are able to talk into your phone. This is nice if you are in a car and don’t have the hands to type out a long message. This option puts the Droid X over the top.
Winner: Droid X

Iphone 4 Browser vs. Droid X Browser

When we open the browser, the text on standard zoom with the Droid X is very hard to read. You are able to read the text on the Iphone 4 at standard zoom. There is no Flash on either device. Flash 10.1 may be available for Droid later on in 2010. The Iphone 4 offers a smoother experience when it comes to browsing while the Droid X can be jerky/laggy at times. You will notice the browser experience with the Iphone is much better. You may re-evaluate this when Flash comes to the Droid X.
Winner: Iphone 4

Iphone 4 Speed Test vs Droid X Speed Test

WiFi:
When on the same WiFi network, the Droid X is noticeably faster. The Droid X handly beats the Iphone 4 from a browser speed standpoint. Droid X web browsing wins the category.

Applications:
The speed of opening different applications on the Iphone 4 and Droid X are very similar.
Winner: Droid X

Iphone 4 Camera vs. Droid X Camera

Iphone 4 – 5 MP LED Flash
Droid X – 8 MP 16×9 images dual LED Flash

After taking a few pictures with both phones, you will not notice the 3 megapixel difference. Image quality is very similar. From a still standpoint, the front facing camera on the Iphone 4 makes taking pictures much easier.
Winner: Iphone 4

Iphone 4 Video vs. Droid X Video

Iphone 4 – shoots 720p with two microphones
Droid X – shoots 720p with three microphones

Looking at the specs of both phones, you would think the Droid X would win in this category. But after putting both phones to the test, the Iphone 4′s video is noticeably better. Along with video, comes audio and even with the one-less speaker the Iphone 4 sound is great compared to the Droid X.
Winner: Iphone 4

Iphone 4 Operating System vs. Droid X Operating System

Both phones feature great multitasking ability along with great App stores.

Iphone 4
200,000 apps
Itunes

Droid X
70,000 apps
Android 2.1 with motoblur
Moving wallpaper is a nice feature included on the Droid X.

This category really comes down to personal preference. My personal preference is the Droid X because it allows you to go outside the box. You are not confined to such programs as Itunes and such.
Winner: Droid X

Iphone 4 Battery Life vs. Droid X Battery Life

The Iphone 4 has one the best battery life specs in the entire phone industry so how do the two compare.

Iphone 4 Battery-
7 hours talktime
300 hours of standby time

Droid X Battery-
8 hours talktime
220 hours of standby time

One advantage with the Droid X is the removable battery. But I still think this category is wash because who actually carries spare batteries on them.
Winner: Draw

After reviewing both of these phones, the winner is the Iphone 4 by a very slim margin. But, again a majority of these categories deal with personal preference, so choose your flavor.

The first tip in determining how fast your browser will be is your locale. Are you living in a metropolitan area or are you living in the woods? This will determine what network you should choose. If you are living in the woods, I personally would not choose AT&T as Verizon, Sprint, and other major networks would have better reception.

A second tip in determining your browser speed is WiFi. If you are always in an area where WiFi is accessible, your choice should be the iPhone 3G. If you are a person who is always on the go, you should choose the Blackberry Storm EVDO network.

This video will compare the iPhone 3G and Blackberry Storm Web Browser using Wifi and EVDO.

Here is a first look at the Tap Tap Dance game for the iPhone.

I recently purchased this game from the iPhone app store and I have to say that I am blown away. For $9.99, you will definitely get your moneys worth! If you have ever played Loco Roco for the iPhone, you will find that it is very similar. One problem I have with this game is that it is too short. Check out the review from Bryan Barletta, a Lead reviewer at AppVee.com.

Pros:

• Its comes with 2 Films – 2 Backs and 2 Fronts for the iPhone

• Home Button cut on iPhone is nice with BodyGuardz

• Easy removal

Negatives:

• Difficult to put the Film on the iPhone 3G

• You will find that the Bodyguardz Film is very time consuming

• Bubbles start to show up on the film

• Smudges

I found this copy & paste tutorial on youtube courtesy of Pastebud.com. This looks like a valid solution to the copy & paste senerio that the iPhone lacks using the safari browser. The solution is found at pastebud.com for a small fee of $5. To find out more about Pastebud go to http://pastebud.com or follow them on Twitter as http://twitter.com/pastebud. Check out the video.
