Google Nexus One vs Motorola Droid
January 24, 2010
At present, the loudest ‘echo’ in the mobile phone market is ‘android mobile phones‘. Among them, the name of two mobile handsets yell out prominently, of that of Google HTC Nexus One and Motorola Droid. Droid was enjoying the emblem of being the coolest android smartphone in the arena, till the outburst of Google Nexus One. Even though the fad follows Nexus One currently, Droid has not completely lost its sheen. Motorola Droid has already created ripples in UK market, in the name of Motorola Milestone, and Google Nexus One is yet to create. At this juncture, here is the comparison between Motorola Droid (Motorola Milestone for UK) and Google Nexus One.
Neither of these mobile phones can be said to be so appealing by their looks. When Nexus One encompasses its 3.7 inches AMOLED screen within a curved rectangular chassis, Droid does it in within a normal rectangular case. But Nexus One scores well in its display quality. Even though both comes with almost similar WVGA resolution (Droid packs 54 pixels more than Nexus One), it is the AMOLED screen that makes Nexus One a winner. The vibrancy it offers is remarkable. Droid comes with a slide out keyboard, where as Nexus One is satisfied with an on-screen one.
Motorola Droid runs on Google Android 2.0, whereas Nexus One comes with Android 2.1 version. The spotted difference in both comes in the visual experience. Android 2.1 provides a better view with enhanced 3D animations and Live wall papers. The voice-enabled search is another impressive feature in Android 2.1. Processor is another element that makes Nexus One a stronger player. The processor of Motorola Droid runs at a speed of 600MHz , where as Nexus One’s Snapdragon is a real dragon at 1GHz speed. With no lag in any of the performances, Nexus One grants an awesome performance. But this doesn’t mean Droid is slow by any means, may be by fractions.
There is no much difference in the multimedia aspect of Motorola Droid and Google Nexus One. Comparatively, the pictures they capture or the videos they play offer an equal performance. May be you can say that the AMOLED screen of Nexus One delivers a better view. Regarding the battery life, Droid offers a better 3G stand by time of 270 hours, but Nexus One will offer you only 250 hours. The talk time? Droid will offer a 6.4 hours, where as Nexus One can offer you for a 7 hours on 3G network.
Overall, Both Nexus One and Droid represent the best android phones in the market. But it is only the hardware, like Snapdragon processor and AMOLED screen that makes Nexus One a little superior to Droid.
