Determining the State of Charge (SOC) of a lithium-ion battery is not a trivial matter. It is done with a combination of Voltage, charge current, and what is called Amp Hour Integration. It is easy for the phone to determine 100% and 0%, but in between can be difficult. Most phones use PAST...

I haven't looked at a Droid X2 in person. I have a Droid X, which was a TFT display that rocked the RAZR's display in person. It is pretty much unviewable in full sun though. No doubt you have to decide in person.

I didn't show both pics because I understand pixel density as far as it pertains to text. The picture you love is not a realistic line density. The UPPERCASE letters are ~40 pixels high, which yields a line spacing of about 55 pixels vertically. That yields less than 18 lines of text with the...

From the article "The DROID RAZR lags behind them a bit". Guess which picture from the article is the RAZR: I don't think an objective review is one that focuses solely on "streaming video" as a real world test case. That is maybe 2% of what I use my phone for. I can see the Verizon...

I am in the market for a new phone and have been considering heavily the RAZR MAXX. I currently have a Droid X. I went and looked at the phone. The display is easily the worst display as far as clarity and color of any current high end smartphone. Text is particularly terrible. 1. On auto...

I've downloaded 10s of Android MP3 players and I can't find one that displays the current bitrate of the song it is playing. Any ideas? Winamp on Microsoft Windows does this well and it a good way to double check the bitrate of a file.
