The Droid Pro’s certainly got the spotlight at Motorola’s CTIA 2010 event, and for good reason — this Motorola Citrus is slow and crippled by comparison. It’s a iffy little entry-level device with a Blur-like UI and a fairly functional Android 2.1, but a lethargic 524MHz MSM7525 processor and 3-inch touchscreen with a resolution so small you can see individual pixels without squinting. UI browsing and surfing was laggy too, though we did like the device’s comfortable-to-hold size and dedicated physical Send / End keys. Let’s hope this one arrives at a price low enough to woo the mainstream, because we’re honestly having a hard time calling the Citrus a smartphone. Gallery: Motorola Citrus, first hands-on!
