Samsung Droid Charge (4G-Verizon)

Samsung’s Droid is being readied for Verizon following up on the recent popularity of Motorola’s Droid. HTC’s Droid Eris also has generated a sizable and growing following. Finally, Samsung will join the party adding one of its own devices to Verizon’s lineup with the Samsung Droid Charge, Samsung’s anticipated Android OS-powered smartphone. Verizon and Samsung have announced that the Droid Charge will be available stateside on April 28 in Verizon retail stores for $300, of course with a two-year contract commitment. Spec wise the Samsung Droid is not shabby. There is a 4.3-inch super AMOLED screen, 1-GHz processor, back and front facing cameras (8 megapixels and 1.3 megapixels). But, the Charge isn’t running 2.3 or 3.0 versions of Android,

The Samsung Droid is the second 4G LTE-enabled smartphone released for Verizon in 2011, the formidible HTC Thunderbolt was Verizon’s first 4G device. AT&T, Sprint and T-Mobile are offering a few more 4G devices. The Thunderbolt has been a hit for Verizon in the short span since release. 4G Thunderbolts sales still were eclipsed by 3G Apple iPhone sales on Verizon.

Get ready for a literal avalanche  of Droid phones from HTC, Motorola and select others.
