Droid X Vs. iPhone 4

DROID X Vs. iPhone 4

To start I just want to say that they are both very good phones but there can only be 1 winner. To start the camera. The iPhone only has a 5MP where the Droid X has 8MP. The Droid X also has a better flash. One of the things that I like about the iPhone though is that it has a better resolution. Another thing that really stands out to the Droid X though is the WIFI hot spot. This hot spot can power WIFI for other devices. The iPhone can not do that. But one other thing the iPhone has is the camera on the front that can also be used for video calls. The last thing that I want to talk about is the Market places. The Apple App store has been out for a couple of years now and it only has 220,000 apps. The Android Market hasn’t been out that long and it already has 65,000 apps. This proves that the Android market is growing much faster than the App Store.

To close this blog I want to say that both phones are great phones but I am going to say the Droid X is better. But it is only better by a little bit. I think that there is going to be a lot of competition between Apple and Google coming up.

All in all I think both the Droid X and the iPhone are almost equally good phones and they both have their ups and downs.

Droid X Hints and Tricks

These are some hints and tricks I use with my Droid X.

For my first tip, if you go to your settings and then application, you can set your double tap home for different things, such as, Dialer, Send message, contacts and more.

Another trick is if you hold down your home button, your recent apps page will appear.

When you first get your Droid X it is not set on 8mp camera mode. Make sure you change it click the 4 square button while running the camera. A screen will appear with a lot of different modes like video quality, picture quality, face detector, shutter animation and Exposure.

*Remember the higher the quality of picture or video the more room it takes up on your phone!*

My last hint is you should download the “Advanced Task Killer” app. This app will help set up what apps will stop running when not being used. This will conserve a lot of your battery.

I realize that when you turn on your droid sliding your finger to unlock it gets annoying. You can turn that off by going to settings > location and security > and unchecking the screen lock box. This disables the sliding to unlock and now all you have to do is hit the home button.

When you are trying to edit your text it can be hard to clink in the exact part that you want to change. Well if you click anywhere a red circle will appear if you press and hold the red circle it turns into a magnifying glass. When you see that magnifying glass keep holding it down and scroll to the area that you wanted to change. This will makes it a lot easier to find the test that you wanted to edit.
