Samsung Droid Charge (Verizon Wireless)

 

The Samsung Droid Charge on Verizon Wireless delivers 4G performance and a superb camera and camcorder.

Fast 4G performance. Ultra-vibrant Super AMOLED Plus screen. Stellar camera and camcorder.

Plastic housing feels cheap. Older CPU benchmarks behind its competitors. Battery life not terrific.

Samsung treads a bit more lightly than HTC with its UI layer. Most of the apps are stock, albeit with minor color or graphic enhancements. This is good and bad; I missed HTC's excellent address book layout, which looks livelier and makes it easier to...

Samsung Charge

 

CORRECTION: The original version of this review referred to the phone's micro-USB port as a "mini-USB" port. We regret the error.

The Super AMOLED screen is impressive ; 4G LTE service is very fast

Phone is large, lacking in distinctive design ; Battery wears out too soon

The LTE speeds dazzle, the AMOLED display shines, and you get a free mobile hotspot at least for a little while. What's not to like? Well, the battery life disappoints, but that may not be enough to spoil the fun.

Samsung Droid Charge Review - Droid Goes LTE

 

Samsung is doing something interesting lately. Instead of outright releasing Galaxy S 2 in the US, each carrier is getting a mid-cycle refresh of the Galaxy S with 4G compatibility and more recently Super AMOLED Plus. T-Mobile was first with the...

Samsung Droid Charge vs HTC ThunderBolt

 

Two titans enter the ring: the Samsung Droid Charge in one corner and the HTC ThunderBolt in the other. Both can use Verizon's new 4G LTE network, and come with a host of features, such as a large display, 1GHz processor, 8MP camera, and 32GB of...

It has been a little over a month since we reviewed Verizon's first 4G LTE smartphone, the HTC ThunderBolt, as we were impressed by its data speeds, software, and overall performance, though we are still having an issue with the device cycling through...

Samsung Droid Charge Review: The Droid Brand Goes 4G

 

Droid. When the brand launched, this was a name that stood for something. While the iPhone enthralled consumers with a friendly, easy, but ostensibly restrictive experience, Droid retaliated with the motto “Droid Does.” It was all about superior...

Samsung Droid Charge – Verizon Wireless (Review)

 

The Samsung Droid Charge is the second Verizon Wireless smart phone with 4G LTE connectivity — the HTC Thunderbolt was first. While this device is not a part of the Galaxy S II family, there is a lot it still has to offer with a large 4.3 inch Super...

Those urgently looking to upgrade will definitely like the Droid Charge, but be aware that the industry is on the verge of moving to dual-core processors. The ridiculous amount of bloatware is also a concern, but there is fortunately plenty of internal...

Samsung Droid Charge Review: Great Screen, Terrible Battery

 

This smartphone is available for for $300 after a new two-year contract with Verizon, or at an unsubsidized price of $570

Outstanding screen ; Smooth performance ; Good call and camera quality

Gigantic ; 4G LTE kind of a letdown ; Horrendous battery life

The Droid Charge is a fine phone and the display is almost reason alone to buy it, just be aware that there are a handful of noticeable drawbacks
