Offered for only $99 with service through Verizon Wireless, the HTC Droid Eris is one of the cheapest android phones available on the market. Completely easy to use, the compact and convenient design offers a lot of solid features like a beautiful 3.2-inch HVGA capacitive touch screen for an impressively low price.

With an impressive color resolution and smooth surface, the stand out touch screen allows a user to easily transition between 7 rotating homepages, a QWERTY keyboard, and a menu filled with fun and eye catching apps. The ability to zoom either by double tapping the nicely responsive screen or by pinching your fingers offers a huge bonus for people who are still resisting the iPhone. A built-in accelerometer automatically changes screen orientation depending on how you hold the phone, and a proximity sensor keeps your cheek from accidentally cutting off your calls.

HTC Droid Eris Quick Stats:

• Dimensions: 4.45 x 2.19 x .51 inches
• Weight: 4.23 oz
• Resolution: 320 x 480 pixels
• Camera: 5 MP

The loaded feature set is another huge plus for this mobile phone. Coming equipped with not only Android standards like Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, PC syncing, and voice recording, the HTC Droid Eris also offers the full range of Google programs. Messaging and email options are seemingly limitless, and smart additions like a PDF viewer allow even more practical applications. The lack of a unified Inbox is a bit inconvenient, but at least all programs are accessible under the same menu icon. The included Flash Lite support is a bit choppy, but at least it’s included.

While not a perfect mobile phone, the HTC Droid Eris comes close enough that the price more than makes up for any defects. Leave a comment below and let me know if you agree. This may not be an iPhone killer, but it's one slick from from Verizon ... finally.
