Superphone Shootout, round 2: What's the best smartphone for the summer?

Clunky camera software Some of the physical buttons felt cheap You have to remove battery to switch microSD card Despite the improvements, MotoBlur is still kind of useless
The Motorola Droid X is crash-landing on Verizon July 15 and I get the feeling a lot of Big Red’s customers will be very pleased with this large, full-touch smartphone. The thing is much larger than the original Droid but you soon get over that because that 4.3-inch screen is a delight to use. Sure, it doesn’t quite blow you away like the Retina Display or Samsung’s Super AMOLED screens, but it does just fine for most users.
The handset rocks Android 2.1 with some MotoBlur flavoring (please don’t fight me on this one commenters, Motorola CEO Sanjay Jha said so). MotoBlur has been scaled back, so it’s not very obtrusive, but it’s still a bit useless. I can’t wait for the Motorola Droid X to get Android 2.2 for full Adobe Flash support and better overall performance.
