If you’re considering an Android phone on Verizon Wireless, the Motorola DROID 2 and Motorola DROID X are two enticing picks. Comparing the two devices side by side, the DROID X has a substantially larger screen that makes it better for anything from watching movies to surfing the web. The larger screen size, however, makes the device itself substantially larger and a bit cumbersome.
Screen size aside, the DROID X also offers several higher-end features including an HDMI out port, camera capable of capturing higher resolution photos, and camcorder able to capture high definition video. The DROID 2, on the other hand, has enticing features including a sliding QWERTY keyboard and slightly better battery life. The DROID 2 also fits nicely in a pocket.
For more details, here’s a detailed DROID 2 vs. DROID X comparison chart.

Wirefly’s done a really nice in-depth review of the Samsung Vibrant. For those who don’t know, it’s T-Mobile version of the Android-based Galaxy S.
Samsung is issuing a version to each carrier with slightly different features (Fascinate, Captivate and Epic), in hopes of world domination.
While they may not dethrone the DROIDs or the iPhone, these Galaxy S phones are worth checking out. To see how the Samsung Galaxy S line stacks up against some of the heavy hitters, check out these comparisons — Samsung Captivate vs. iPhone 4, Samsung Epic 4G vs. HTC EVO 4G, & Samsung Fascinate vs. DROID X.

Well, it’s been a long time coming, but the fine folks over at AT&T seems to have finally caught the fever that has already struck the remainder of the mobile nation: Android fever. Motorola’s BACKFLIP was the first Android phone to jump onto AT&T’s network. Fever, though, hadn’t quite struck until the HTC Aria and Samsung Captivate stood up this past week and challenged the iPhone 4 to a duel.
Both of these Android phones and their widget-loving home screens stand to take a bite out of Apple’s spirit, and here’s how the iPhone 4 stacks up against these two Android-powered threats:

Jobs and co. revealed the new and improved Apple iPhone this past monday, surprisingly enough calling it the Apple iPhone 4. To be sure, the iPhone 4 is an impressive beast of a phone with what will be undeniably the sharpest screen on the market and a few other goodies including voice chat. That’s all well and good, but the iPhone’s software (at least according to many mobile phone pundits out there) is still no match for the Android platform that has boasted the ability to multitask since the beginning and also has abilities that iPhone owners can only dream of, most notably widgets. That said, specs are important, and we’ve come across a couple great comparisons of some of the most high-end Android phones vs. the Apple iPhone 4. Enjoy and let us know which you’ll pick.

Great post from TechTremor.com about the HTC Evo living up to its hype.Click through below to read it in all its glory:
“With all the talk of Sprint’s HTC Evo, I sat down and contemplated why I am so excited to have this phone. Right off the bat I ruled out the perk of being an Android user, as I already have that checked off the list. My HTC Hero is Android through and through, so not the highlight for me. Okay, so not the touchscreen either (been there, done that)…there had to be something else, right?!
And, oh yes, there is…more than one something in fact. As much as I love my Hero, it comes down to the fact that we all want the newest and best, myself included. That is what the Evo is…the best and newest HTC has to offer. So, here are five reasons I am prepared to fall in love with Evo:”
