Motorola Droid 4 Review: Snappy Performance and a Great Keyboard
20.05.12
As I mentioned, the QWERTY keyboard was a joy to use. Even with my pudgy thumbs, I could accurately and quickly type out long email and text messages. In contrast to the keys on the Droid 3, the keys on the Droid 4 have a slight bump on their surface and they're spaced out a tad more. This makes typing a lot more comfortable, though I still prefer the keyboard on the T-Mobile MyTouch Slide 4G .
The Droid 4 ships with a 4-inch, 960-by-540 (qHD) display. Like the ones on the Droid 3 and the Droid Bionic , it's a PenTile display--and it has many of the same problems that we encountered on earlier PenTile-equipped Motorola phones. Individual pixels were visible to the naked eye, we noted a considerable amount of ghosting during scrolling, and visuals overall were not very sharp. In short, it's disappointing to see Motorola go back to using PenTile screens after phones like the Razr and the Atrix 2 had abandoned them in favor of cleaner-looking LCD displays.
