The Motorola Droid Bionic was announced 9 months ago at CES 2011, but it has finally arrived was it worth the wait?
As you can see, the design has changed since the initial announcement and it now looks much like a keyboardless Droid 3.
That’s only on the visual end of things though. Spec wise, the Droid Bionic is almost exactly like the Motorola Atrix:
Droid Bionic | Atrix | |
OS | Android 2.3.4 | Android 2.3.4 |
Processor | 1GHz Dual-Core | 1GHz Dual-Core |
RAM | 1GB | 512MB |
Screen | 4.3 inch @ 960×540 | 4 inch @ 960×540 |
Camera | 8MP rear (1080p recording) | 8MP rear (1080p recording) |
Connectivity | 3G/4G (LTE) | 3G/4G* (*HSPA+) |
Capacity | 16GB built-in (+16GB pre-installed card) | 16GB built-in |
Ports | Micro HDMI, Micro USB | Micro HDMI, Micro USB |
Battery | 1735 mAh | 1930 mAh |
Regardless, the Droid Bionic is here and it’s available for $299 with an upgrade or a whopping $589 without an upgrade.

If you’re looking for a review, Josh Smith of GottaBeMobile has you covered.
If I had been waiting patiently for the Droid Bionic since its announcement 8 months ago, I would be a little bit disappointed that the Droid Bionic is basically the same phone at the Motorola Atrix (minus the 4G) which was released back in February… oh and it was cheaper.
For those of you who were waiting for the Droid Bionic, was it worth it?
