Motorola Droid - my first few days
February 4, 2010 by admin.
WTF? I really mean that. This really cool phone is baffling me and making me want to dash it against the wall. Here is what is happening:
- The battery lasts about 4 hours
- The phone dial screen disappears between button presses
- the screen shuts off even though it is set to 30-minutes
- the phone charges soooo sloowww
- Using the phone while charging is difficult because of the power plug position
- the audio quality of the speakerphone is terrible
- I can’t get the stupid thing to SEND email (it receives)
So I am NOT happy with the Droid. I am a bit of a techno junkie so I like to learn and use new equipment. But this thing seems to be poorly designed.
I will do a full report next week, but for now I would NOT recommend the DROID to anyone I like… maybe to people I want to be miserable.
