The HTC Droid DNA is a popular 4G LTE smartphone that runs on the Verizon network in the United States. The handset was recently discounted down to a nearly free on-contract retail price at select online outlets. When the Droid DNA 4G arrived in November on Verizon’s 4G LTE system in the US, its hardware and feature profile was indeed, and still is, one of the best all-around packages found on any smartphone. A powerful quad core processor joins Android’s Jelly Bean operating system, the Beats Audio sound enhancement package and one of the largest high resolution displays found on any phone.

The Droid DNA also offers a rugged but slim and light polycarbonate unibody with distinctive red side grills and a sleek ultra-matte finish. The laminated screen is one seamless piece that helps eliminate reflection, and the device offers wireless charging. But the focus of the Droid DNA 4G smartphone is definitely its large, high-resolution display. At 5.0 inches it is easily one of the biggest found on any mobile handset, and the Full HD 1,080p screen delivers what was then the highest pixel density of any phone at 441 pixels per inch.
The Droid DNA 4G also offers the HD fantasy realm game Reign of Amira as a pre-install, using it to effectively demonstrate the power and beauty of the multimedia combo delivered by the Snapdragon 1.5 GHz quad core CPU, Adreno 320 GPU, large high-resolution screen and exclusive Beats Audio sound package. Considering the size of the display, extended life battery and the hardware on board, HTC designers did a great job in keeping the handset slim and light. The Droid DNA 4G measures just 0.38 inches (9.73 mm) in thickness, weighing only 4.87 ounces (138 g).
The screen is a 5.0 inch ImageChip ISP S-LCD 3 model protected by a layer of Gorilla Glass 2, with an overall resolution of 1,080 x 1,920 pixels and 16 million colors present. Light and proximity sensors help conserve battery power, which lead to 12.6 hours of talk time from a single charge. The power pack on the Droid DNA is built around a Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 Pro APQ8064 system chip, and a generous 2.0 GB of RAM memory joins 16 GB of built-in data storage space.
The HTC Droid DNA 4G offers popular YouTube and Picasa applications ready for use out-of-the-box, as well as an onboard mobile web browser and NFC wireless support. The handset is capable of recording your video memories in 1,080P HD resolution, also simultaneously capturing HD video and images. The rear facing camera is an 8.0 megapixel model, with a front facing 2.1 megapixel wide-angle camera also on board.
