Motorola Droid Bionic Packs Dual Core CPU And LTE Support

We're trying to run down all the phones shown off at CES and, seriously, there's so many of them it's hard to keep up.  We've seen quite a handful of dual-core-packin' beasts so far. Here's another one: the Motorola Droid Bionic.

Packing a dual-core 1GHz CPU and 512MB of RAM, this handset is all about blazing speed.  Not only should the beefy hardware muscle through Android without breaking a sweat, it operates on Verizon's LTE 4G network, too -- currently, the fastest mobile broadband network in the US.

Details of the Droid Bionic include a 4.3-inch capacitive touchscreen (960 x 480 resolution), an 8.0 megapixel camera module, a VGA camera in front for video calls, aGPS, WiFi, Bluetooth, 15MB of onboard storage, microSD card expansion (up to 32GB) and a 1,930mAh battery.  It also has a built-in HDMI with Mirror Mode support, allowing you to hook up the phone to a TV to see the display on a big screen.

Android 2.2, along with the usual roster of Google apps, plays host to the Motorola Droid Bionic's chunky processing power and blazing data speeds.  It's slated for release in the second quarter, priced, most likely, at whatever the highest they can charge for an in-contract phone by that time.
