What is the difference between a droid and an Android phone?

Answer 1

There's more or less the same difference between Android and iPhone as between PC and Mac:

PC / Android: Freedom + Not so good looking

Mac / iPhone: No freedom (at all) + Elegant

Take into consideration that Apple devices cost significantly more. But Apple boasts far more apps than Android. It's up to you to choose your phone according to your personal preference.

Answer 2

i believe that the iPhone 4 is better than any othwer phone. for one it is made out of the same material they use in helicopter and train windows.(atleas from what i haerd)another thing is that the iphone has a better app market. with over 300,000 apps it is far better than the droids 70,000. Also it comes with more accesories and has an antenna to provide better signal while the droid doesn't. People say it has a bad connection but i think not since i have already used it. And last but not leats better resolution. it may have a smaller screen but still its graphics are better.so it all depends on you each one has its ups and its downs but i would go with iphone 4 over any phone especially the "all new droid x"

REPLY: Nooooooo! Iphone is awesome, but Droid is the best! It is much larger, has better things, and you speak into it, and the text appears! You have like regular internet, and when you point, it shows you the stars. AMAZING.

My Opinion: A droid can come with a slide out keyboard as well as a touch screen, and voice quality, Plus it can download Adobe Flashplayer! Plus for all these qualities, does it really affect you that as opposed to 300,000 apps there are 70,000? thath still more than enough. Droid is better for texting and calling, and fine for apps, but if you are looking for a phone That has more apps, or a slightly better cam, then maybe an iphone is for you. I SUGGEST DROID 3 I HAVE IT AND IT ROCKSZZZZ

The iPhone is a work of art which should not be ignored but right now the Android phones which have come out in the past few months are far more powerful.

Android phones are coming with 1GHz Second Generation Snapdragon processors as well as well as Dual Core processors which give a huge (2-3x) improvement in speed. As of 2011 there are 4G Android phones which are 10x faster than the iPhone 4 on 3G.

I recommend the Droid x2, the Atrix, the Samsung GS II, the Droid Incredible 2. There are a few other good ones but you should do some research.

By the way: Android has over 100,000 apps now. Do you think you are really going to use 100,000 apps? Of course not all 100,000 are high end quality but there are tons of fantastic premium apps for free and paid.

Well, it depends. If you want a wider screen display, I recommend Droid. But, if you want an easy way to surf the web and listen to your favorite songs, I recommend iPhone.

Well, I think the best phones ever are the Samsung Galaxy S ll, the Samsung Galaxy S ll Epic 4G Touch, and the Samsung Galaxy S ll Skyrocket.

After those 3 phones, I think iPhone is best.

Answer 3

Generally the droid is a series of phones (droid, droid 2, droid 3, and so on) that run on the Android Operating System. But Android is the operating system. So I guess the answer is that a droid is a phone series, and android phone is any phone that runs on the android operating system.
