Short Review

  • The Motorola DROID 2 Global features a compact design with dimensions of 116.3 x 60.5 x 13.7 mm and a weight of 173g, available in white and black.
  • Its 3.7-inch TFT display offers a resolution of 480 x 854 pixels, providing a pixel density of approximately 265 ppi.
  • Performance is driven by a TI OMAP 3640 chipset with a 1.2 GHz Cortex-A8 CPU and PowerVR SGX530 GPU, paired with 8GB of storage and 512MB of RAM.
  • The rear camera is 5 MP with autofocus, capable of recording video at 480p@30fps, while there is no front-facing camera.
  • The battery capacity is 1420mAh, supporting basic usage without fast charging or wireless capabilities.
  • Running on Android 2.2 (Froyo) and upgradable to 2.3 (Gingerbread), the software experience is relatively dated.
  • Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n, Bluetooth 2.1, and microUSB 2.0, but it lacks 5G and NFC support.
  • The device does not have stereo speakers but includes a headphone jack.
  • Overall, the DROID 2 Global combines a sturdy build with moderate performance and basic features suitable for its time.
