go back to the home screen alrights kicked us off with the calendar and IDN I'll try and be as close as I can but obviously I'm not perfect that definitely seemed to be the Droid Bionic let's try a gmail on both that was difficult for me to tell I think it might have been the iPhone 4s let's go to maps on both definitely the iPhone 4s I'm not quite sure what the Bionic is up to there it goes so it's definitely the iPhone 4s let's try contacts on both that was definitely the joy Bionic let's go to the gallery on both I don't have a much in either one looked like it was the Bionic was a bit quicker let's try the markets on both again they're both different but let's give him a shot and that was definitely the joy Bionic what haven't I done let's try messaging on both that was definitely the Droid Bionic all right now let's give it a big 30 third party challenge discover to Netflix I've got a bow throwing out the same Wi-Fi network and let's spin a TV show and so far it looks like definitely the iPhone 4s is loaded up quicker and good to go so one that portion of our speed test now let's load the video mi5 which I'm thoroughly addicted to and let's you can load that up and spool it up first and it looks like the Droid Bionic it's gonna cover that part of it there we go we've got both of them run take a quick look at the qualities of the screen again you've got two very very nicest plays here all right that's a look at our unofficial speed test next up artificial intelligence text Craig message see you at Starbucks tomorrow at 4:00 question mark listen to Michael

flash enabled on the Motorola Droid Bionic and we'll start to soft we'll head over to end gadget and I'll try and get this as close as I can and they're off looks like the iPhone 4s is serious about winning this here comes the Droid Bionic and it is the iPhone 4s is done and is our winner very smooth droid Bionic has just finished as well and it's not quite as smooth at the beginning but once you get it rolling it is very smooth let's find something we can look at on both here we go it's double tap to zoom in give you a look at the text on both I got two very very nice displays both very sensitive to touch as you can see here they both offer pinch to zoom one of the nice things is on the Droid Bionic you can double tap and rewrap the text so that you can read it with the display double tapping on the iPhone 4s will simply zoom you back out and we'll zoom all the way back out any rendering issues on either one looks like both of them handled it very very well no problems alright when you see we hit over to the mother ship let's go to bookmarks and where are we I want there's smartphone reviews smartphone reviews and we're off so far the iPhone 4s was quickest I'm guessing that both go to the mobile site and again the iPhone 4s was the quicker to the mobile site let's go to the full desktop and we're off good clean start see you takes this and again it looks like it's gonna be the iPhone 4s here comes the Droid Bionic what's it gonna be who's it gonna be excuse me iPhone 4s as it's done here but it's still loading up here at the top as you can see and it is done yes it's done and again very smooth no prob and Droid Bionic just finished and again a little sticky not as smooth as the iPhone 4s let's double tap to zoom in and again you can see when it zooms in it's not quite as smooth what do you say we open up this and see you takes that so far as the iPhone 4s is our winner as far as from a speed standpoint and also a user standpoint it is a bit smoother let's see iPhone 4s is still running up here at the top try bionic is still loading as well and the try bionic actually took that one again though not as smooth as the iPhone 4s so there's a
