Motorola Milestone is a mobile phone initially launched in Europe in late 2009. It is the first device to feature Google’s new Android 2.0 operating system, although Motorola has previously used the older Android system in its CLIQ and MOTOBLUR mobile products.

Technology sites are praising Milestone’s ability to make social networking truly mobile. Milestone includes access to Google’s Search, Maps, Mail, and YouTube.

If you are researching the Motorola Milestone unlocked, you will also find the U.S.-based Motorola DROID. Those reviewing both models note the DROID’s navigation comes with the aforementioned Google features. The Milestone features Motorola’s exclusive MOTONAV navigation, which has 2D and 3D maps and a program that speaks the directions. Milestone plots the routes quickly and combines traffic information with a searchable directory of friends and businesses along the route. The Milestone offers GSM radio standards, the most common digital wireless program for phones. The DROID has the less popular CDMA.

The exterior of the Milestone has a 3.7-inch WVGA widescreen, handling an impressive 400,000 plus pixels, and a QWERTY keyboard. Some reviewers complain that the icons are too small. The phone provides access to 3G networks and Wi-Fi, giving you the ability to call, text, or email a friend while both of you are on the run. You can even receive software updates and mesh your personal and work calendars with a touch of the screen.

An optional, and separate purchase would be the multimedia station. This would enable the Milestone’s multi-media features, which would allow the user to watch movies, listen to music and use the phone as an alarm clock.

With all its enhanced navigation and social features, the Motorola Milestone should leave its competitors, including the iPhone, in the dust. The battery will last at least 8 hours, making the Milestone an excellent traveling companion.

Recently, Verizon Wireless rolled out the Motorola DROID.  This Smartphone was to be their first device powered by ANDROID 2.0 technology.  It promised speedier access to web browsing and the largest 3G network in the country as well as hundreds of ANDROID applications and widgets.  The DROID was to offer options that other Smartphones did not, and at speeds not yet experienced by users.

Did the DROID deliver once it hit the market?  Many users noticed two things about this Smartphone almost immediately.  First, it was everything it promised it would be related to speed and its software applications.  The initial reviews were outstanding when it came to the DROID’s performance on the phone, and applications side of the equation.  However, there was recognition by DROID owners concerning an obvious flaw in the device which has some wondering what happened?  The flaw that many DROID users had noticed was the camera function was not working properly. More to the point, it simply would not focus and leading to poor quality pics was a major complaint.  There were other issues people were having with the camera including lack of clarity.

As quickly as owners had noticed the deficiencies it seemed the camera began to improve in almost every way.  What happened?  No technical service was sought, although there certainly were customer complaints and dissatisfaction with the camera.  Did Verizon quietly perform updates to the DROIDs that had been purchased?  All over owners are reporting significant improvements with their camera problems leaving many to speculate that in fact there have been updates to their Smartphone.

Some find this a bit weird, even somewhat sneaky.  Others are pleased that Verizon has heard customer complaints and moved quickly to address the problems.  There are those who have concluded in their minds that the planned December 11 updates were moved forward once the issues were made known by DROID owners.

Sneaky? Good customer service? Either way DROID users are reporting significant improvements with the quality of their pics.  In the end, having their device work as advertised is all most consumers really care about.

The Motorola DROID camera, although deemed an excellent Smartphone, has had problems since its introduction with owners reporting focusing issues. This seemed to be especially prevalent with the camera’s automatic focus feature. This problem, although not experienced by everybody, was the camera’s one failing. It was thought that an update that was scheduled to come out on December 11th might be designed to fix the problem. However, the DROID suddenly seemed to improve in its focusing ability overnight, which led to the speculation that the fix was pushed out already, without announcing it.

The Good

The Motorola DROID, in spite of its previous issues, is a really good Smartphone. Its only real problem was that the camera was not able to focus properly, at least for some people. Now that the problem has been corrected, albeit in a somewhat mysterious and controversial fashion, the autofocus works great. The camera feature also offers auto-completion and automatic error correction with the on-screen keyboard, and takes crisp, bright photos. The DROID also offers a barcode scanner, which can be quite handy.

The Bad

Some people have experienced different focusing problems with the Motorola DROID, which seem to be caused by the green signal that is supposed to indicate a “locked” photo not really working properly in all instances, since blurred photos are sometimes still experienced even when the camera claims to be locked. In addition to reports of blurry photos, some DROID owners report that the camera feature is slower than what they would expect. However, some people report that the DROID is actually faster than some other Smartphone cameras that they have used in the past.

The Bottom Line

Although the reported improvement in automatic focusing ability is still somewhat of a mystery, this “fix” was just the thing to make the DROID shine. This is a solid Smartphone with newly improved camera functionality, which makes it a good choice for anybody looking to purchase a Smartphone.
