There has been a lot of negativity regarding the Motorola Droid Bionic and its delayed launch. Then, yesterday, we unveiled some exclusive photos of the Droid Bionic that were quickly met with all sorts of groans about the thickness of the phone. Motorola makes phones that last. Every time I go out in San Francisco, I see people using the original Droid or the original Droid X. I have issues with their vision, but I love their hardware and quite frankly, the Droid Bionic seems like the best of these Droid phones mixed with 4G LTE.

I would gladly buy a phone with the Droid Bionic’s “thick design” (it doesn’t even look that much thicker than the other Droid phones) if the battery life holds up.
I love thin phones and I enjoy sleek designs as much as the next person, but I also love a phone that can withstand the rigors of daily use. That has been a problem with 4G LTE phones. Obviously, Motorola learned that lesson and scraped the old design in favor of a familiar form factor with a huge battery that supposedly gets 15 hours on moderate usage. That is what the Droid Bionic is. A Droid with a huge battery, 4G LTE, and a dual-core processor. A thin 4G LTE smartphone with great battery life is far-fetched at this point. Beyond that though, there hasn’t been a single Motorola Droid phone from the past two years that has let me down whether it’s the Droid X, Droid X2 or the Droid 3. Again, speaking of track records, Samsung has a terrible one. With the Droid Bionic, it’s only Verizon and Motorola collaborating.

· Samsung Hasn’t Proven It Will Release A 4G LTE Device This Year
· The HTC Vigor Will Likely Have A Large Battery
· I Doubt The Nexus 3 Launches In October
· Quad-Core Phones Aren’t Coming Until Next Year
No phone is perfect. Until batteries and 4G technology improves drastically, you won’t see a 4G “Jesus” phone. And even with all the perceived flaws, I still believe that the Droid Bionic is a phone worth considering.
I am not saying that you’re absolutely, positively going to want to buy the Droid Bionic. September release and all.
