The Design
In terms of the design, this mobile phone does not necessarily stand out. That is to say, it comes in a very basic style that is both fashionable and modern (although it is not at the same level of the Nokia N series or Blackberry community). It also features a 3.0-inch resistive touchscreen that has a 320 x 480 pixel resolution (262K colors). This is also a slider phone, which means it slides out (landscape) to reveal a full QWERTY keypad that can facilitate faster typing. This …

Droid Incredible User Reviews…
By: Z. Shaikh “zahid-java”
Cons: It does not have front camera(eg video chat) or HDMI port or inbuilt wifirouter(mobile broadband)
as compared to upcoming sprint HTC EVO phone. (but verizon supposedly suppports tethering at around 15$ to 30$ per month . However some one suggested in the comments to try pdanet)
I does not have hardware keyboard – unlike motorolla droid.(but that would have made it bulkier )
I beleive there is no automatic blue tooth dialing- per earlier reviews.(though it has support for blue tooth itself)
Camcorder voice quality is bad(video is ok).
Its easy for thumb nails/dust to sticks easily on to screen(hence screen protector is highly recommended)
There is No lens cover for camera. (so you may have to buy holder etc)
It does not have good battery life .(But since its removable – you can buy extra)

The HTC-built and Google-sold device runs Android 2.1 atop a 1GHz Snapdragon CPU, a 3.7-inch, 480 x 800 display, has 512MB of ROM, 512MB of RAM, and a 4GB microSD card (expandable to 32GB). Its large screen and 32GB memory card are good for watching videos, If you want to rock your Nexus one with your favorite DVD movies on the go, you should use an additional conversion tool to convert DVD to Motorola Droid supported video format, for DVD movies are CSS protected usually.
So first you should be clear about what kinds of formats are supported by your Droid. Here I list all the supported video/audio formats …
