The Motorola Droid Bionic is the first 4G LTE smartphone to really deliver. It's packed to the brim with all of the latest cutting-edge specs and features, and it's all melded together in an incredible package. This is probably my favorite smartphone Verizon that has ever offered exclusively. Android is still Android, with all of its strengths and weaknesses, but Motorola has done an amazing job finally working out the glitches with its customizations -- those tweaks now add to the phone, instead of detracting from it.

Technology enthusiasts will love the screaming dual-core processor, 8-megapixel camera with 1080p HD video capture, 4.3-inch qHD display, built-in storage and expandability. The Bionic is also thin enough and small enough that I have no problem recommending it to friends who are in the market for a new smartphone on Verizon, especially someone looking for a 4G device.

It's one of the most expensive smartphones Verizon has sold in recent years, priced at $299.99 with a two-year agreement, but it's also one of the best phones the nation's top carrier has ever offered. In my view, it's well worth it.
