Verizon Droid Phone: Vote on Looks alone.

http://www.boygeniusreport.com/2009/...roid-hands-on/

if you were to judge this phone by its cover and not look at what counts (the inside).
What do you guys think about this phone?

Vote 1 to 10
10 as best...
and leave your comments as that is really what I want to know. personal opinions on this phone based on looks.

My wife thinks its ugly, and I don't really like it that much either... (shouldn't stop me from buying it as it is whats under the battery cover that counts)

I Voted 3.

Re: Verizon Droid Phone: Vote on Looks alone.



personally think it's fugly as all get out. It seems to have no class, no style. Like it was designed by a bunch of geeks living in a closet all their lives... it's so far away from a sleek phone it's ridiculous... my vote would be for a 3 or so...

I said 6. I don't like the part that juts out from underneath the screen at the bottom.

I do like that it is supposedly metal casing.

Re: Verizon Droid Phone: Vote on Looks alone.

I believe its average, all phones have their downfalls as far as looks go and to each their own. I voted 5 but that would be much higher if they would get rid of that bottom jut. maybe the final version won't have that.

Re: Verizon Droid Phone: Vote on Looks alone.

What is it with Android and phones with chins? Does Jay Leno design these phones or what? The phone had me until I scrolled and saw the bottom of it. Lose teh chin and I would be far more interested in it.

Re: Verizon Droid Phone: Vote on Looks alone.

I voted a 5, the thing that took points off for me (and apparently everyone else) is the under bite lol. Without that it's pretty much all screen up top which is kind of a necessity with a screen that large, and I think it looks good anyway.

Re: Verizon Droid Phone: Vote on Looks alone.

Voting is all over the place...
The more I see the pictures, the more I am coming to grips with it. I think if I buy the phone, I will just get used to how crappy it looks to the point where it wont look crappy anymore...

I'm betting on the same thing. When Motorola "accidentally" leaked the official specs I actually found myself almost admiring its sleek form. I think I've called that phone everything but "sleek" prior to this.
