Motorola DROID 4 Reviews

The Verge Well, the Droid 4 took its sweet time getting here, but the phone is on sale this week, and as of today it's the only dual-core LTE smartphone with a physical QWERTY keyboard you'll find in the United States.
CNET Melding an excellent keyboard, swift LTE data, and a 1.2GHz dual-core processor into one Android device, the Motorola Droid 4 is long overdue.
Engadget Why is the Droid 4, now imbued with LTE, getting the B-list treatment? Does a $200 price tag and a host of minor spec bumps (a 1.2GHz dual-core CPU, 1.3 megapixel front-facer and beefier 1,785mAh battery) merit another spin around the two-year contract pole?
Androinica The Motorola Droid 4 takes on the Droid ‘Insert Number Here’ mantle just 6 months after its predecessor.

Tech Crunch The Droid 4 doesn’t look much like its other Droid siblings, but it does promise the same stellar keyboard and a solid construction.
Tech Radar And make no mistake, the Droid 4 is a brick of a phone, thanks to its signature slider. But with the Droid 4, Motorola seems to have reached a good compromise. It's bulky yes, but it's also stylish.
Slash Gear Finally the one-two-three punches of Verizon’s 4G LTE, a dual-core processor, and an 8 megapixel camera capable of 1080p video has come to the DROID line of QWERTY keyboard-having Android devices.
PCWorld The Droid 4 is the phone to buy if you are looking for a physical keyboard, though the blurry display leaves some room for improvement.
Phone Arena Taking care of business, the Motorola DROID 4 rightfully eases the concern from last time, while employing some of the necessary iterative improvements on the hardware side to keep it in good light with the company.
