The Droid Incredible 4G LTE is a strong addition to Verizon's lineup, as it offers nearly all of the power and functionality of a premiere Android superphone, except in a smaller form factor.

Given it runs Android 4.0, has a $149.99 price-point, interesting Video Pic capability, and awesome audio, it's unfortunate that the Incredible's case is ho-hum. It's almost as if HTC has hidden Incredible's light under a bushel.

Priced lower than Verizon's other more compelling smartphones ... it straddles the fence between low-end and cutting-edge Android devices. The problem is, though, that it doesn't play the balancing game well, offering a decent amount of features for a price that should be lower.

The HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE delivers a fast camera, bright screen and enhanced audio in a compact design, but it's a little pricey... it's a good choice for Android fans looking for a phone that's around the same size as the iPhone 4S.

The Droid Incredible 4G LTE for Verizon Wireless is a powerful, sensibly sized smartphone, but it isn't quite a 'One.'

If your mitts just can’t grapple with something like the Galaxy S III or Galaxy Nexus (or if you just prefer a phone that’s less conspicuous in your pocket), the Incredible 4G is an admirable choice in spite of its minor flaws.

HTC’s Droid Incredible 4G LTE has a fantastic screen and a powerful processor, but is otherwise compromised in too many ways. At $149, you’re only 10 days without your latte away from something better.

Should You Buy It? Probably not. If you're on Verizon and want an Android phone, you're better off with a Galaxy S III. But if you want a smaller phone, and it has to be Android, the Incredible is your best choice.

This device is not made to be flashy, instead it’s made for people who want long battery life on a 4G LTE smartphone that’s also got HTC’s lovely user interface on a reasonably sized – not to big, not too small – handheld display.

Its key feature is its smaller physical size, making it usable with a single hand. It also has some nice features, such as Android ICS with HTC Sense 4 UI, good call quality, and a nice camera – all of which make the HTC DROID Incredible 4G LTE a good phone, although lacking any “wow” factor.

When it comes down to everyday use, the Droid incredible 4G LTE is the best Android experience on a phone of this size. If you’re looking for a smaller smartphone and don’t need to be making calls or taking photos all day, this is a great device.

.... hardware is decent, the display dazzling, and the signal and voice performance as good as any phone I've tested ... Perhaps the Incredible's only weakness is the camera, but it's not so bad as to be a deal-breaker ... It just doesn't offer the same pizzazz that some of the competing devices do.

The Incredible 4G isn't a truly awful phone to use, but it doesn't need to be to in order to get a "no sale" from me. I just can't in good conscience recommend it to anyone.

The HTC DROID Incredible 4G LTE is a fine phone, but it feels a bit like it was designed last year for last year's smartphone market. It doesn't really have any glaring performance issues, but compared to what is available in HTC's own One series ..., it's hard to say that the Incredible is...
