video: motorola milestone - differences from droid?
Monday, February 01, 2010it looks like the crew at mobile syrup has also received a pre-released version of the motorola milestone and launched a preview video of it. now i have to admit that i haven't really checked into milestone differences and similarities as compared to the droid, but after looking at this video briefly, there are some pretty obvious ones.
fast forward to the 1:35 mark...
you should notice right away that the milestone's version of android 2.0 has some different icons and features from our droid.
- the google search bar is missing the voice search icon
- it is replaced with a "voice dialer" shortcut.
- alarm clock, gallery and music icons are different.
- there is an "audio effects" app.
- a camcorder shortcut.
- moto phone portal comes pre-installed
any other major differences you know of? how about you milestone users?

I'm a Milestone owner in the UK; here are some of the differences I'm aware of...
ReplyDelete1) The Milestone can't install copy protected apps from the Android Marketplace because it's sold unlocked.
2) Multi-touch is enabled in apps such as the browser.
3) Only the US can download the turn-by-turn navigation update to the maps app.
Here are corrections from what you've stated;
a) The search bar *does have* the voice search icon.. for some reason it's just not in the video.
b) There is no Audio Effects app installed by default (not on the UK version anyway)
c) There is no camcorder shortcut
Thanks for the input. So when that guy says that the version he was sent isnt the final version, he isnt lying hah. Or maybe Canadians just like it all different.
