Less than two months later on May 26, 2011, Motorola released its successor, the Droid X2, which featured an upgraded dual-core processor called the Nvidia Tegra 2.

Motorola released the Droid X on July 15, 2010, at an initial price of US$569, or $199 with a two-year contract commitment.

[7] A leaked end-of-life document from Verizon showed that production of the Droid X would end on March 31, 2011.

The Droid X includes an 8-megapixel camera with autofocus and LED flash and can record video at 720p resolution up to 24 fps also.

Some say it lends the phone a sleeker look, while others report that the lack of a physical button makes taking steady pictures more difficult.

Internally, it is built around the Nvidia Tegra 2 chip with two ARM Cortex-A9 cores running at 1 GHz; this SoC provides greatly enhanced graphics power.

Verizon promises a 2.3.6 update but Motorola Mobility has confirmed it will never see Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich.

For Droid X owners, the lack of significant improvements and number of reported performance issues discouraged upgrades to the new phone.
