Atrix vs Windows Phone

Motorola Atrix is one of the best Android Smartphone available in the market right now. You can use the N95’s catchpharse to properly define it too “ what computers have become”. This means that you can do a lot of these phones other than just do plain web surfing and making phone calls.

This phone sports a dual core processor, something which is absent in all the Windows Phones out there. But the best feature is its ability to become a notebook. The phone comes with a huge 1930mAh battery which is good enough for providing charge for two hours when used in laptop mode. Also, unlike any windows phone out there, it features a hot swappable memory card slot which can be used to easily bump up the internal storage capacity.

If you are planning to use it just as a phone, it will be easily able to do just about anything out there without even a 0.5 second delay. Yes, it is that fast, thanks to the dual core Nvidia Tegra 2 processor that is fully capable of handling 1080p video playback. For some reason, the camera cannot record full HD video (1920 x 1080). Atrix feels really solid when held in hands and surprisingly is not on heavy side – weighing in at just 135 grams. The display is qHD and measures 4 inches diagonally.

Also, Google have been more consistent than Microsoft in rolling out updates. Windows Phone updates, last time I checked were inconsistent in nature.
