We knew Motorola’s Droid X would need to be at least as big as the HTC EVO 4G due to having the exact same screen size, but we’re still excited to see how the devices look when they’re put side-by-side. Thanks to our awesome members over at AndroidForums.com, we’ve been treated to that exact scenario.
Even with having the same screen sizes, we can see why the Motorola Droid X is a notch taller than the EVO 4G: Motorola loves white space (I’m not sure what to call it in phone speak). Thanks to the advent of hardware buttons and obscenely large carrier branding, the Droid X could prove to be just a smidgen less pocketable than any of its competitors (to be fair, it’s still a very thin device).
It doesn’t surprise me that the Droid X doesn’t make good use of that extra space considering Motorola’s had a history of showing disregard for sleek designs (Motorola Devour, anyone?). Still, I’m sure all will be forgiven when customers pick the device up and enjoy that gorgeous 4.3-inch display.
