Rate the Motorola Droid

Impressive device.
If the malfunction of muting itself on 95% of my calls, and then dropping them would subside, I would actually call it a phone. But hey! its smart enough to at least give you a clue..ennit?" Duck and cover, mute and drop"
Seems some of the softwear got farmed out to B.F.E and wound up in my particular phone. I am revived to find not all recieved this coded lot, as I.

I agree totally with DavidE, and you.
But my salesman sold me a bluetooth, as well as a car charger that doesn't fit.
So I am going to return and ask for demonstrations, just for the hell of it on my day off.

even 4 out of 5 is far too "kind" of a rating. This is the first cellphone I've had (since 1994) that crashes ("FC") simply handling voice calls. It's the 1st one I've had since 2006 that doesn't work properly with a bluetooth headset. It's the only one that doesn't have a reliable button for "hang-up" function. The lousy 1.3Mp camera on my old Treo matched the quality of the results I get from this 5Mp one. The inability to sort or search contacts by company or last name is as stupid as imaginable. I'm REALLY getting tired of waiting for V,M & G to fix their screw-ups. Only the 3rd party apps have me keeping this thing, and most of them are still needing to keep pumping out rev's pretty often.

I had to give it a 5. My Droid has saved me time and money over, and over again. I have converted quite a few BB and I****e users over to the droid. Aside from the issues we all are aware of I could not be more pleased.

A Treo could do that in 2006, maybe earlier. I'm NOT trying to sell anybody on a Treo, I EXPECT BETTER HARDWARE AND SOFTWARE THAN THAT OR THIS IN 2010!

Nice phone but I would like to get more battery life. I am now getting about 8 hrs with all apps killed. Almost unreadable screen in bright sunlight. Gave it a 4.

I can't give it a 5. You can't even use voice commands through your Bluetooth. Other than that, it's been a good 1st smartphone experience so far.

i second you nick, even the lg dare let me do that. i would give it a 4.5 too. this is my first "smart phone" and i've seen others and wow!

I had to rate it a 4. I absolutely love this phone but i rated it a 4 because of the lack of a simple feature (Bluetooth Dialing) that they left out of this phone.

I've been using the Droid for several months now. Like it but I too would like to see a better voice dial system. It's not at all "hands-free". To dial a number in my contacts, I need to 1. manually open voice dialer, 2. speak into it, 3. then manually touch the number to confirm. To do this, I put it into a car dock, charging therefore on all the time. Otherwise, it's even more manual intervention. Too much when driving. The Palm Treo worked much better. Because of that key application shortage, I'm giving it a 3.5
