7/10
Informr score
The Motorola Droid Pro currently has an Informr score of 7 out of 10. This score is based on our evaluation of 4 sources including reviews from users and the web's most trusted critics.

In yet another iteration of the hugely successful Motorola Droid franchise, the Droid Pro stakes its place by offering a design twist, a touch screen and full QWERTY keyboard in candybar form factor. The Droid Pro offers a 3.1 inch capacitive touch screen displaying a 320 x 480 pixel resolution, along with a full physical QWERTY keyboard featuring contoured keys and ALT functions displayed in an attractive shade of blue.

Powered by a 1GHz processor, the Droid Pro can definitely keep up with whatever you’ve got planned, and to help you get started it comes with Adobe Flash Player 10.1, a 5MP camera including auto focus and flash, video record, music player, YouTube player, Facebook, MySpace and Twitter, along with full web browsing capabilities.

Additional features include Bluetooth, GPS, Wi-Fi, expandable memory up to 32GB via microSD and a 3.5mm headset jack. Talk time is rated at up to 7.16 hours and standby time is rated at up to 320 hours.

If you enjoy the convenience of having both a touch screen and full, physical QWERTY keyboard, take a look at the Motorola Droid Pro.

There are many things to like about the Motorola DROID Pro and for the most part it succeeds in what it sets out to do, namely steal the business user segment from RIM.  The Android operating system is more than capable of supporting enterprise users, and with added benefits such as VPN sup...
