Ok so i have both, but im going to sell one which should i keep and why, they both have there pluses and minuses. Im not in a 4g area but i like the charge cause its less glitchy, and i will probably root it if i keep it. The Droid X2 i like because it has alot of potential but will its potential be unleashed with the next update or will it just be crappy, i also have the X2 rooted on the eclipse rom which makes it a little better but still not to amazing all input is appreciated!!!

P.S. also posted in the DX2 forums just so i get feedback from owners of both
 
Hrmm depends. X2 If 4G isn't coming to your area, Charge if it is.

While 4G may not seem like a big deal to you now, trust me once you have it you will never want to rely on a 3G connection again. Yes it really is that much faster. No more waiting on video's to load or websites to slowly come up. Hell comcast went down for a little bit in my area the other day so i used tether to my PS3 and could watch netflix no problem on the 4G.

I like the X2 because it gets updated a lot, good battery life and overall is just a very nice phone. The things i don't like about it are the crappy screen (imo) and the fact that it's not future proof. Basically all networks are spending tons of money to get their 4G up and running. So if this is a phone your going to stick with for 2yrs and while 4G may not be that big of a deal to you it is something to think about.

The Charge i like because it's 4G, has a great screen and overall good battery life for a 4G device. That being said the cons are that it's not a phone that's good right out of the box. You have to tweak it abit because TouchWiz really is that bad (As i am sure you have noticed with the screen lagg). Go Launcher Ex along with a different browser is pretty much a must have for this phone if your staying stock.

If your planning on rooting then stick with the Charge hands down. Battery life gets a huge improvement and the phone becomes extremely quick. Rooting the phone pretty much kills all would be issues with it from VZW's bloatware and TW's crappy interface.

Anyway my 2 cents.
