We’ve already seen leaked hands-on photos of Verizon’s upcoming DROID X2 smartphone, but now the official press images have been spilled, too. There doesn’t appear to be many aesthetic differences from the original DROID X, aside from the DROID^2 logo painted on the back. There are a few spec boosts, though, including a rumored 1.2GHz dual-core NVIDIA Tegra 2 processor and a higher resolution qHD display. The DROID X2 is expected to launch running Android 2.2 although we hope there are plans for an early Android 2.3 software update. According to earlier rumors, the DROID X2 will cost $199.99 with a new two year contract, but Verizon Wireless has yet to leak a launch date.

      • Spotmark

        I agree. The Droid X is one of the ugliest phones on the market.

      • Steve Hillshire

        Definitely agree! Any phone that doesn’t have a metal ring around the outside that you can touch and reduce the signal is just utter rubbish!!!!!

    But the real question is.. is the bootloader still locked?

      Last I checked, this phone was made by Motorola. “Yes” would be a safe assumption, don’t you think?

        Well im still using my OG motorola droid which never was locked and was without blur nonsense.. Looks like samsung or htc will be my upgrade, but one can dream

        Believe me, when it comes to Motorola, I dream the exact same thing. I look at the Droid Bionic, imagine it with an unlocked Bootloader, and just drool at what Cyanogenmod could do with it.

        But what phone has had an unlocked bootloader since that first Droid? Hell, what Moto phone hasn’t had Blur? I know that I saw some rumors claiming the Droid 3 would be a return to form. I hope it is. I mean, I also hope it’s got a higher res screen and 4G, but even if it doesn’t have any of those things, it’d be nice to know that someone, somewhere is making an insane piece of hardware with the latest version of Android on it.

        I’m a dreamer, too.

    I’m call bluff, atleast for the red eye, Droid 2 even had a new droid eye, i doubt the device is exactly the same.

    planning on moving to seattle, may move to verizon as well. I’ve never had an android phone; personally, it reminds me of symbian in its look. im not saying it’s like symbian, not at all. but, i fell you should try all os’. all of this unnecessary rambling aside, this phone does look very nice.

    Where’s the front camera?

    • Tedkord

      Won’t do you much good with 3G – especially Verizon’s 3G.

      • Anonymous

        Wifi? Not as flexible as having 4g but still useful.

  • Tedkord

    After taking away your choice of 1 or 2 year contracts, Verizon is now giving you the choice of either 4G or dual-core. You can’t have both!

  • Matthew

    The DROID X2 will cost $199.99 with a new two year contract. The Samsung Charge cost $300 and the Thunderbolt for $250, why are the LTE phones more…. hmmmm. Well im glad i ditched Verizon for a cheaper network. =)

    If you don’t have 4G in your area, that’d be a solid phone, especially if the talk of upgraded internals are accurate. I’m still holding out for dual-core, qHD, and 4G. I guess it’s a good thing that my contract isn’t up for another year.

  • Generatione

    2.2???

    • Douche

      Ya that’s fragDROID.

    An incremental refinement for those who didn’t jump on board the first time.

    For all the 3g users it’ll be this or incredible 2. Kinda feels like 2010 again.

  • Jroc869

    They need to rename this Motorola Droid Epic Fail. I love Moto hardware, but they didnt do much to the Droid 2 and now again Not much to the X. Get with it guys

    • Steve Hillshire

      They are just following Apple’s footsteps for the first 3 generations of iPhone…

  • JohnPA2006

    Droid X is the best Gosh Darn phone out there, PERIOD

    If they added a front facing camera that would be cool.
