Description

The HTC DROID ERIS became popular as the second Android phone for Verizon Wireless, although it got launched at the same time. Straight out of the box, it is equipped with version 1.5 of the operating system, but also has the social-centric Sense UI on top. It sports all the hardware features one would expect, including a 3.2-inch screen, 528MHz processor and 288 MB RAM.

Nice phone, sometimes slow.
Phone owned for less than 3 months

This phone is amazing. I got this phone in my only phone lot, along with 7 other phones, which is cool. When I first got it, it was untested, but when I got a charger for it, I charged it and it worked. I didn't know that you can fit a RAZR charger into the charging port.

Works well but battery issues
Phone owned for more than a year

I've had my phone for quite a while. The features are pretty good. The memory has begun to wear down though but thats to be expected if you don't use a good uninstaller. However, the battery life sucks, and god forbid you have something that updates on a regular basis, cuz our battery won't last more than 4 or 5 hours. Even then it won't last more than 6 if you turn the updates off. I've loved this phone but the battery life is horrid.

Droid Eris is so nice. Better than any phone out there!
Phone owned for more than a year

The HTC Droid Eris is AMAZING!!! its the best phone ever created and I will never get rid of it. It's so much faster than ANY phone out there, even now! It reads my mind and even freezes up when I can't think of anything to type. Pull the battery and im good to go! I love pulling my battery!!!!!! I never get 3G service but thats okay cause im a 2G fan!!!!!!!
