Engadget: Droid X vs. iPhone 4... hang out!
we'd really rather live in a world where Droid X and iPhone 4 hang out after work for drinks than one where they stab each other in their silicon hearts.
PC World: Droid X vs. iPhone 4: Spec Smackdown
the Android platform, which is quickly catching up by adding powerful devices and galloping software updates. ..... Processing Power Tie .... Display & Resolution Winner: iPhone 4 ....... Storage Winner: Droid X ..... Camera & Multimedia Draw ...... Apple's device has a front-facing video camera for video calls (a feature missing on the Droid X), and you can purchase, for $4.99, iMovie for iPhone, simply the best mobile video editor seen so far (and exclusive to the iPhone 4). ....... Connectivity Winner: Droid X ...... iOS vs. Android Draw (So Far) ....... the problem with the Droid X is that it won't ship with the latest version of Android (2.2) on July 15 ...... A cool trick the Droid X will have, one not yet available on iOS, is Swype, a system that allows you to enter data on the software keyboard without lifting your finger off the screen. Swype is the default data-entry mode ...... A notable feature now present on the Droid X is noise cancellation technology, which is supposed to improve call quality by blocking other sounds around you except your voice. The iPhone 4 has two microphones, one of which is used for noise cancellation, while the Droid X boasts three.
InformationWeek: Droid X Puts iPhone 4 On Notice
Motorola's new Droid X should give iPhone 4 shoppers pause. It has a bigger screen, better camera, and the Verizon Wireless network backing it up. ...... The Droid X's 854 x 480 display is fully capable of playing HD content. Do those extra pixels matter? ..... The iPhone's battery is, of course, not accessible. ..... The real advantage the Droid X has over the iPhone 4 is its network. I have been both an AT&T and a Verizon Wireless customer for years. I can say that in my experience, Verizon's network is simply better. That means fewer dropped calls and more consistent data sessions for the Droid X. ...... The difference between AT&T's $25/mo for 2GB and Verizon's $30/mo for 5GB is enormous. ....It costs just $200 with a new contract, and offers nearly everything the iPhone 4 does -- all on a better network.
BusinessWeek: Why The Droid X Won't Trump The iPhone
The 4.3-inch screen, the largest I've ever used, is nearly 25 percent bigger than the iPhone's. .... It can also do something cool that the iPhone can't: provide a Wi-Fi signal for nearby devices. ..... The Droid X's biggest advantage is that it runs on Verizon Wireless

VentureBeat: Droid X versus iPhone 4
Nokia’s N8 due this fall will challenge everyone with its 12 megapixel, oversize-sensor camera hardware. ..... both phones have much better graphics performance than previous models. You’ll no longer tap and wait. Or swipe and wait. ......
PC Mag: iPhone 4 vs. Droid X vs. EVO 4G: Carriers Go to War
the iPhone's lack of expandability - neither a removable battery or an additional memory card; and its lack of support for Flash, which means that some Web sites (such as Hulu) don't work. .... The Evo 4G has a large 4.3-inch display, with an 800-by-480 resolution, and as a result, the phone is a lot larger than the iPhone 4. It has a variety of very nice features, including a front-facing camera for video conferencing and the ability to be used as a mobile hot-spot, sharing its Sprint connection with multiple computers over Wi-Fi. It also has an 8-megapixel camera, HDMI out, and a kickstand. But the standout feature is its support for the Wimax network, which is now available in a number of markets and coming to a lot more this fall.
