This morning I picked up a Droid from my the local VZW store. My iPhone was out of contract and I have been looking forward to an android phone.
Overall, I like this phone
- It seems to be more responsive compared to my iPhone.
- Plus it has two apps I have been wanting – Google Voice and Google Maps Navigation.
- I like android os.
Issues I am having:
- Verizon Wireless‘s 3G coverage is worse than AT&T in my basement, contrary to what they claimed in the commercials.
- It seems only one Google calendar is supported (sync-ed), although multiple gmail accounts can be added into the phone.
- (normal) Yahoo mails are not supported by default.
- On iPhone, you can see the number of unread emails, texts, etc, in a red circle attached to the application. There is no such information on Droid.
- I actually do not need the built-in keyboard since I have been used to iPhone’s software keyboard.
- Lack of (other) decent apps, compared to what I had on my iPhone.
I will try it for some more time and decide whether to keep it.
