Verizon Wireless has yet to announce the upcoming availability of the Motorola DROID 4. About two weeks ago the smartphone’s user guide emerged online and we thought that the carrier would soon launch the device.
Unfortunately, we’re still not sure when the DROID 4 goes on sale at Verizon. However, the folks over at Droid-Life have just learned that the phone’s price has been dropped from the initial $249.99 (190 EUR) to only $199.99 (150 EUR) with a new two-year contract.
The new change appears in the most recent MAP (minimum advertised price) list from Verizon Wireless that has just surfaced online.
Aside from this change, Verizon’s internal document also mentions that DROID BIONIC’s $199.99 (150 EUR) subsidized price will be slashed to $149.99 (115 EUR).
Motorola DROID RAZR 32GB will also get a discount and will be available for $279.99 (210 EUR) with a new two-year contract. According to this document all price cuts will be available starting January 26.
In the same news, those who want to wait for the DROID 4 should know that this is a Gingerbread smartphone that features a full slide-out QWERTY keyboard.
The rest of the phone’s specs sheet seems to be similar to DROID RAZR’s with a few exceptions. The DROID 4 comes with a slightly smaller 4.0-inch capacitive touchscreen (540 x 960 pixels resolution) and is heavier (180g) and thicker (12.7mm).
Furthermore, the DROID 4 features an impressive 8-megapixel photo snapper with autofocus, LED flash and full HD (1080p) video recording, as well as a secondary 1.3-megapixel front-facing camera for video calls.
Nothing’s changed inside, so expect the DROID 4 to pack the same 1.2 GHz dual core processor, PowerVR SGX540 GPU, 16GB of internal memory, 1GB of RAM and microSD card slot for memory expansion (up to 32GB).
DROID 4 features a 1785 mAh Li-Ion battery, which should provide up to 204 hours of standby time or up to 12 hours and 30 minutes of talk time.
