The big screen, the big and fast processor, the big 8MP camera, and the biggest cellular carrier along with the biggest known OS (Android!), need to match my big body size or anything else will just look simply tiny. 
X is about expression. When replaced by variables it becomes a formula.
f=machine. h=human. X=communication.
A function ƒ takes an input, x, and returns an output ƒ(x).
F(Hx) = exponential human productivity/freedom

I hate this city. I hate this phone.
What little of the night sky that remains unobscured by megascrapers is awash with the fireworks of targeted neural-net advertising. It?s 2:30 in the morning and I?m on the hair of the dog for what seems like the seventh day in a row; I?ve got dataflies whirring and buzzing above my head, I?ve got condom ads beamed into my bloodshot eyeballs, and this ridiculous phone with a piece of fruit on it keeps dropping my damn calls. Keep your Garden of Eden symbolism, I?ll take a working phone, thanks very much.
In the span of 72 hours I?ve been witness to political scandal, bribery, and murder. I watched a girl die and I can?t even report it. There is something evil and wrong happening in this city, none of which I am able to capture and expose thanks to the fact that I can?t record it in high definition; even if I could it?s a moot point with inferior processing power. I saw the money change grimy hands and all I?ve got to show for it is vague, grainy pictures. I guess those extra three megapixels really do make a difference.
These streets wouldn?t be fit for the most diseased cockroach. I?d take an autocab--it?s quick, it?s convenient, and you don?t get fleeced by hacks with feet made of feathers instead of lead--but I can?t, because this phone doesn?t have anything resembling a respectable nav system to load into the cab?s autopilot. At least if I had an HDMI jack I could port out to the monitor. And so I walk.
A mugger jumps out of the alley, demanding the usual. I can see the implants just under his skin: he?s a drugged-up tech-head, and he smells like he just shat a dead opossum. I realize I?m unarmed. Great. I pull my I.D.?s out of my wallet and toss it to him. Congratulations, jerk-off, you?re six dollars richer. He demands the phone in a craze, and I don?t even hesitate to fork it over. If it was bigger I probably could have beaten him into a coma with it. I walk on with a mild sense of satisfaction. I hated that phone.
Last time I ever buy anything from some creeper in a black mock-turtleneck. Tonight, I dream of robot ninjas.

Droid X
Iv'e been waiting for the best, something that's better than all the rest! Droid X is the one, I think I'm done with the Samsung.
Please help!
I'd like to try all of the cool functions, but I need to be in conjunction with this amazing piece of technology.
For god sake I think I've waited long enough! I'm still using a Samsung Hue!!!

Largest screen with android on verizon and has all the goodies! will prob get decent reception unlike my sad incredible...
I like the CPU/GPU because it would be good performance-wise for games and everyday tasks. Moreso than the Snapdragon
Namely, I want to see how monstrous this OMAP proc can be when overclocked. Goodbye, snapdragon.
It's got a 4.3 inch screen, giving a lot of space for your fingers with apps and keyboards. In addition the new blockbuster app also adds a nice touch, allowing users to watch full movies whenever they want on the massive screen. It has a 8MP camera with a dual LED flash, facial recognition and blur correction. Not to mention the 720p video shooting, and the HDMI port on the side of the phone. This phone is better than most cameras out there. It even has a microphone for video noise filtering, in addition to the two other microphones for an extremely clear phone call ( that is the main feature after all, why skimp on it?). It has a 1GHz processor, and dominates other phones in fps when watching videos or playing games. It's really the best phone on the market, and will be for a long time.

The graphics processor will make this thing fly. Plus Froyo should look great on that huge screen.

This will have one of the best cameras since it has a mechanical shutter and it also has a dedicated camera button. Besides the camera, the huge screen that's non-amoled will be a big benefit.
The X is the biggest and baddest Android device on the market. Would love to win one from Android Central.
it's obviously a pretty amazing piece of hardware. it's entirely too big to use as a phone and i will stick with my DInc, but as a techie, i would like one to play with.
BIG ASS SCREEN... and the fact that I might not have to wait 6 months to get one because of an oled screen.
