The DROID, the first Google Android 2.0 phone has impressed and continues to do so with a very strong set of web features and a big and stunning 3.7 inch display that brings all the applications to life. The DROID comes preinstalled with many of the features that you would normally see on computers. You find GMail, Google’s messaging service which lets you undo accidentally deleting, archiving or even sending an email; GTalk, Google Chat client which lets you search your chat history, switch between chats and preview video within the chat flow; Google Search lets you search not only the web but also applications, contacts and browser bookmarks on your phone, Calender lets you view and edit your schedule on your phone, Contacts and the ever popular YouTube that lets you record and upload DVD quality videos from your phone easily. As with all Android devices, you need a free Google account in order to take advantage of the key features like the contact list and the calendar as they are synchronized with your web based account.
The Google Maps feature has now gone a step ahead than its predecessor. You now have a Layers option that enables you to place location enabled features on the map that you're viewing. So now, you can get information on say parking lots, ATM points, restaurants, gas stations, etc. the Google Maps navigation is also hands-free, that means totally voice-based. You can say the name of the destination you wish to go to and get turn by turn directions. In addition to this, if you switch to the Google Street View, you get an interactive photo of the actual location as you approach your destination. Like a guiding star, an arrow will point you in the right direction. Thus giving you some sort of visual confirmation that you're in the right place or atleast very near to it.
