Verizon's smallest, most powerful Droid yet

2013-07-23
hey guys this is Brian Bennett for cnet.com and right now we are taking a first look at the brand new Motorola Droid mini now if you're familiar with the Droid Razr em from last year you won't find any new surprises really in the design of the droid mini it looks very similar has a very small screen well it's actually 4.3 inches actually the one thing that's interesting is that this screen on the droid mini is an LCD screen as opposed to the Droid Razr m's AMOLED screen from last year so it's a little different at at 720p resolution which is sharp for you know most things and you can also see it has a 2 megapixel camera on the top has the three capacitive buttons for Android jellybean which is what it's running running 4.2.2 on the back you've got a 10 megapixel camera and an LED flash now 10 megapixel sounds a little weird but it apparently uses a larger pixel size that hopefully will help it perform better under low light conditions all the features include the new Motorola x8 processor in reality it's actually a 1.7 gigahertz dual-core Qualcomm processor but it has a bunch of different cores to help it keep up with the demands of your mobile life so dual core processor graphics dual core processor application also has a processor for contextual searches so basically this this device will be able to listen to you if you train it properly it will enable you to conduct searches just by talking to it you don't even have to pick it up it also connects to Verizon's 4G LTE network for fast data price and availability for the Droid mini is August 20th it will hit Verizon stores for $99 and is actually available right now for pre-order I'm Brian Bennett for cnet.com you
