announcing four new phones in just the last month you could say Motorola is owned quite the role and the latest Verizon Droid just arrived on our doorstep in case you didn't recognize me without the Hat I'm Taylor Martin this is PocketNow and this is our unboxing of the Motorola Droid ultra so in the last month alone Motorola has announced four new phones and four of those four are available on Verizon the droid mini the Droid ultra the Droid Maxx and the Moto X and we're kind of asking why all four need to exist on one carrier but that doesn't really matter we have the I guess staple of those four devices right here in front of us the Droid ultra and this will be available I know it is available now as of August 20th on Verizon for $200 with a contract or about $25 a month with the edge plan so we are getting into the packaging that is all in our bubble wrap or bubble wrap and as you can see here this is your typical Droid branding boxing and everything it's it's what we've seen a million times from Motorola and Verizon your droid with your droid so without further ado let's get in the box and we'll talk about specs and everything in just a second see what's inside so very easy to open this is the phone sat that aside of course some ingress I guess paraphernalia advertising saying that you should play ingress which is a MMO for Android users it's pretty cool I've played it a little bit but uh not really my thing inside we get more paperwork get to know your phone global support information important consumer information product and safety and warranty information a lot of reading material that's your sort of thing they also have your standard microUSB cable we have an AC power adapter and more cardboard pasteboard and stuff so that's really all that's in the box nothing special no headphones or anything just your normal information and power supply so that's all inside the box nothing fancy cool stuff I guess whatever we'll set that aside this is what we really care about the phone the Droid ultra so like all the other droid devices from Motorola this time around and the Moto X this one has an integrated battery so no removable battery which is the same as the razor's and all of that this one has a 2130 milliamp hour battery inside so it's actually smaller than its smaller sibling which is the Moto X this one has a 2200 milliamp hour battery this one has 2130 and its specifications are pretty much in line with the Moto X except for the fact that this one only comes in 16 gigabytes its display is 5 inches versus 4.7 and the rest is pretty much the same they both have a 10 megapixel camera they have the x8 computing system from Motorola which is a 1.7 gigahertz dual-core Krait CPU Adreno 320 GPU and 2 dedicated processors 1 for motion and other sensing and the other is for natural language processing for your touchless control let's get the plastic off here it looks like the plastic that's not gonna make a whole lot of noise will move it over here no noise really unfortunately we'll get the other plastic stuff off as well one off the camera and I believe that's about it there's some fuzz up here but other than that there's not a lot different here from from actual the razer brand earpiece your standard buttons here which are not on-screen like the Moto X are actually capacitive you've got task switching home back volume rocker and your power switch on the right side you've got a speaker grille around the camera which is pretty nice some some some aluminum trim for your moto your Motorola logo headphone jack on the top nothing on the left edge and your micro USB port on the bottom and as far as hardware goes that's really all there is to it one thing we'll note is I've been holding this device for about two or three minutes now and it is absolutely covered in fingerprints like Samsung's devices it has a very slick polished back on the backside it's plastic and very slick so it's a fingerprint magnet which is pretty unfortunate but you can see there's a significant size difference between the Moto X and the Droid ultra and if we power this thing on really quickly hopefully it's got a charge it does motorola a Google company so this is the new Motorola if if you haven't realized that yet so no razor branding just Droid ultra and if we get it powered on here we'll see that there is a fairly significant difference in size in the display and that's one reason it's it's kind of amplified because this has on-screen buttons but we're not here to do a comparison this has been the unboxing of the droid ultra stay tuned there's gonna be a full review and some comparisons one with the Moto X and with other flagships there will be a lot of coverage for a lot of different stuff next week but
