It is far better than the original Droid, and it's less expensive. By that review they make it seem slower than "droids" when in fact the first Droid's proc is 50MHz slower.
Positives about the phone.
-Touch tracking is improved over the original droid.
-Chunky design is not chunky at all. The Droid Incredible is "chunky"
-LG's tailored Android OS has very little bloatware.
-QWERTY keyboard on the Ally is better than any other Droid especially compared to touch screen keyboards.
-Screen brightness and clarity is what you would expect from a modern handset.
-Pictures taken at 3.2MP are pretty darn good for a 3.2MP camera.
Cons.
-Camera is sub 5MP (not important at the price point)
-Low internal memory (can be expanded via SD card)
-Proc is under 1GHz which is the standard for newer droids.
I get fewer returns on my Ally sales than original Droids and Droid Eris. I make money off of commission so these sort of results I notice. It's not a "tinker toy" kind of phone that most droids can be. It can be rooted and unlocked like the others, but out of the box it doesn't have most of the "BANG" that an INC or X would tote. If you're looking to take advantage of Droid's most commonly used apps, and most useful apps you'll have no problem using this device over any other. If you're trying to game then I'd suggest using a different device. As a phone/PDA/GPS it is definitely a quality device. There is also a build of 2.2 in the works. That's the word from my LG rep.
