Gorgeous display ; Strong performance ; Durable build quality and elegant design ; Unlocked HSPA+ / GSM radios

Short battery life ; HTC removed the microSD slot

With its display, reasonable price and top-of-the-line components, the Droid DNA is our top choice on Verizon's lineup this holiday season.

Seriously beefy specs ; First-rate camera ; Great display ; Runs Jelly Bean very well ; Nice price

HTC's UI is a bit tacky ; No removable storage, only 16GB internal ; Difficult to use with one hand ; Mediocre battery life

The 1920 × 1080 display is the best on any phone, both on paper and in real life. Mostly flawless performance from the quad-core CPU, 2GB of RAM and Verizon’s 4G LTE network. Looks kinda badass. Attention to ergonomic detail is evident in the curved...

Crappy battery life. Display isn’t significantly better than the screens found on top rivals. At 5 inches, the screen is too big — a pain to use with one hand. Little hangnail plastic USB port cover has got to go.

Incredible display. Top-of-the-line quad-core performance. Sleek, high-quality build

No microSD card slot. Comparatively average battery

The HTC Droid DNA for Verizon Wireless gets you the fastest performance and the sharpest display we've seen on a phablet yet.

Indeed, the HTC DROID DNA is one attractive looking handset that’s setting the bar with its 1920x1080 display. More importantly, though, we’re grateful to find it priced at $200 with a 2-year contract, which makes it a solid buy for anyone in the...

Stunning detail with its 5-inch 1080p display ; Svelte profile & lightweight ; Takes sharp looking photos & videos ; Better 4G LTE signal

Insufficient 16GB of memory with no expansion ; Not enough enhancements with Sense 4.0 ; Indistinct power button & volume control

Slithering its way out of nowhere, surprisingly enough, we have to admit that HTC has a winner in the DROID DNA. Right now, it’s rather difficult to stand atop of the crowd knowing that you have other venerable smartphones out there to compete against,...

The display is arguably the best on the market; design and build quality are fantastic; the 1.5GHz quad-core Snapdragon S4 Pro and 2GB RAM keeps things moving smoothly

Battery life could be better; storage is meager; may to be too big for some

The DROID DNA may not be the perfect smartphone, but it's a sign for better things to come from both HTC and its biggest competitors. It is a new level of design and attention to detail. If display quality is your primary concern, the DROID DNA is...

Quad core ; Built in wireless charging ; 1080p HD display

Wireless charger costs extra ; Battery not accessible ; No microSD slot
