It’s a wonder how the Motorola DROID 4 has managed to take so long to hit Verizon retail stores – especially since the accessories have been available from December 1, 2011. We had thought the device would release close to the Samsung Galaxy Nexus, as both had been sharing similar rumored dates. Considering the DROID 4 just landed on DroidDoes.com, the release is bound to be right around the corner.


DroidLife has stumbled across some insider information that has confirmed a Thursday, February 9 release date. It won’t debut at $299.99 like many of their others – but instead carry a $199.99 pricetag (with a 2 year contract). We had some hands-on time with the Droid 4 way back at CES, and it could be the perfect QWERTY smartphone sporting 4G LTE.

In case you may have missed the specs, the DROID 4 will sport a 1.2GHz dual-core processor – and retain the 4″ sized screen many have grown to love through its 3 other generations. It is running the same 2.3.6 OS as the current DROID RAZR, so by the time 4.0 rolls out, maybe it will be compatible on both within a similar timeframe. Those of you holding out for this bad boy can certainly make it a few more days!

  1. Wait a minute it was the Feb 2nd last month , now it is the 9th , and the original date was suppose to be in January 26th.
    No one really knows and now it is old tech with locked bootloader .

    Who cares anymore !

    • Actually, the original date we were expecting was Dec. 22, 2011!  Typical of Verizon to hold out and wait until it gets closer to being obsolete….  I’d guess they’re going to release the Droid 4 sometime this month, then release the Droid 4 Maxx sometime in April………..

      • Then in May they’ll release the Droid 4 Maxx with unlocked bootloader….  By then the next great phone from HTC or Samsung will be peeking it’s head out from under wraps….
