My dad had this phone for about two and a half years. We've had multiple issues and had to switch out the phone multiple times. The battery died too quickly, the speaker blew within a week, the earpiece didn't work, the microphone made calls sound crackly, the screen was slow, and the screen randomly went blank. We finally got it switched out for a DROID 4 and we love the phone. Works quickly, and works like it should. But don't buy this phone :(
This was a phone from 2010, nothing from today so it wouldn't be able to be compared to today's phones. The processor is quite good and the build quality is phenomenal. I've dropped it at least 8 or 9 times (down the stairs, on the road, ect.) and not any major blemishes. The battery isn't too great, the camera is pretty bad, and it lags in games and anything you use everyday. It restarts itself a lot, maybe once or twice a day, and it goes unresponsive sometimes. But for it being a phone from back then I'd say well done Motorola.
Great phone overall, not perfect, better with the extended battery, PowerAmp, and CyanogenMod installed. And be warned, it has a horrible camera. I originally purchased a Droid Pro which crashed on my constantly, and the sales manager recommended I exchange it for the Droid 2 Global. It was a good suggestion, I've been much happier with this phone as it was far more stable, and is great for music playback with or without headphones, although the sound was very scratchy until I installed PowerAmp. The keyboard is terrific for those of us insist on a physical keyboard. MotoBlur leaves something to be desired though, so I recommend installing Launcher Pro instead, or root this phone and install CyanogenMod. The 2 most offensive thing about the phone is the memory required by MotoBlur (which I resolved with Cyanogenmod), and the terrible quality camera it comes with. The phone does lock up on occasion, but it's not unusual with most Androids. My last complaint, it's impossible to find a case for this phone that doesn't snap apart because the clips are too small. Next time I think I'll abandon the keyboard for a candybar style, and buy a rubber case that can last.
