The HTC Droid DNA 4G is a powerful Android smartphone with a large high-resolution screen. The handset also offers one of the highest pixel densities of any smartphone, double the average amount of RAM you will find on the typical mobile handset, and a host of other impressive features. One of the features which has drawn praise from smartphone shoppers is the rear facing 8.0 megapixel camera, which can record video at a rate of 1,920 x 1,080 pixels (1,080P HD), has a wide angle f/2.0 lens, and uses exclusive HTC ImageChip technology to remove noise, balance color, and keep your shot in focus.
Recently the ability of that rear shooter was displayed when musician Samuel Sanders and photographer/director Chuck Jackson shot an entire music video using their Droid DNA 4G smartphone. The final cut is approximately 3 minutes long, and can be found on YouTube. The video offers excellent quality and sound, and garage musicians looking to record their own music videos with the handset will appreciate the recent retail price reduction the Droid DNA 4G has undergone at Amazon. The Android smartphone was spotted with a discounted retail price tag of $49 on contract at the Amazon Wireless store online.
The Droid DNA 4G delivers the Jelly Bean 4.1 operating system out-of-the-box, and is powered by a 1.5 GHz quad core CPU. A full 2.0 GB of RAM system memory is also on board, and the overall system chip is a Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 Pro APQ8064 model. HTC last year bought a controlling interest in the Beats by Dr. Dre business, and they have included the exclusive Beats Audio sound enhancement package in the Droid DNA smartphone. That includes a 2.5 volt headset amplifier as well as dedicated speaker amps, and the form factor is distinct with red side grills, a seamless laminated screen and a slim and light, but tough, polycarbonate unibody.
Pixel density runs extremely high on the 5.0 inch ImageChip ISP S-LCD 3 display, and a full 16 million colors are offered at the rate of 441 pixels per inch. The slim profile of the Droid DNA handset measures just 0.38 inches (9.73 mm), and the handset weighs 4.87 ounces (138 g). Overall resolution is 1,080 x 1,920 pixels, and the screen is protected by a layer of scratch resistant glass. Up to 12.6 hours of talk time is offered from a single charge on the Verizon 4G LTE network.
The handset also offers an Adreno 320 graphics processor, and comes with the fantasy realm HD game Reign of Amira pre-installed. The HTC Droid DNA 4G Android smartphone offers 16 GB of internal storage out-of-the-box, NFC wireless support, and is capable of capturing up to four shots per second on the above-mentioned camera. The handset also has the capability of recording high definition video and images simultaneously, and delivers video out options.
