droid 3 vs droid x2?

[mark87]

So iam due for a upgrade but can't decide with phone is better....... wich of the droids x2/3 is the better/faster phone? I do a lot of games and movies along with torrent downloads. Wich phone is gona be relevant the longest and be used for the longest? Both have hdmi, both have dual nvida cores, both 1ghz, both 8mp cmeras,........ so is the only main difference you trade big screen for slideout querty board and droid x uss motoblur..... oh and are display reselutions same for both? Any help would be great.

I really think it would come down to if you wanted a physical keyboard or not.

Just noticed x2 has 1gb of ram and 3 has 512mb....... but 3 comes with 16gb internal storage over the x2s 8gb........ and what's the difference between the 2 duel cores? Specs say duel core for x2 but 3 says duel core omap4 or something?

Main concern is games. I like gameloft games and want to play world of midgard smoothly whith no lag. Also want to stream hd movies. But games are my main concern.

Tough question:

Tegra2 vs. OMAP4
1GB RAM vs. 512mb
4.3 Touchscreen vs. 4" touchscreen with slider keyboard
8gb storage vs. 16gb storage

Of all the four, I would say, the most important issue would be the third here.

So it really dosnt matter wich one I choose? Even the difference in ram? If both phones will play any gam out for a while and are both equal speed wise think I might go with the droid 3 for keyboard........ unless some one has a reason why droid x2 is better. What would 1gb ram mattr over 512mb ram?

With larger RAM you can multitask better. Apps that you launched and "left" will stay longer in memory for you to switch back instantly. How much of a difference? That depends, since Android is pretty memory efficient anyway. It always swaps out apps to make way for incoming ones.

Another reason to pick one or the other is simply which device has the appearance you like the most? Which one is more beautiful for you?
