Motorola XT875 aka Droid Bionic Surfaces

I'm also excited to get my hands on one, but at 4.5 inches... i mean it looks huge. The 4.3 Inch screens were already pretty big. Will wait and see.

you're looking at what...1/8" inch taller of a screen maybe? my wife's 4" TB to my 4.3" DX is minimal at best.

Ummm, that's because the TB has a 4.3 inch screen as well. The TB screen is wider and not as tall, but still 4.3 inches.

True.
But the Bionics screen is going to be 4.3 inches anyway. You can measure it in the pic.

1ghz? Same processor as Droid 3? I thought it was gonna be something faster. That's somewhat of a disappointment. It just got less appealing to me, I think i'll be keeping the droid 3 after all. 4 inches seems perfect for qhd resolution IMO, 4.5 is gonna stretch it out too much. It would be cool if they made a Droid 3 without the keyboard and made it nice and thin, but with 1gb of ram.

What exactly is the difference between this and the D3 - aside from physical keyboard?

4G antenna and screen I believe.

And perhaps the amount of ram in conjunction with the possible docking station/web top accessories.

If you measure it its 4.3...
The phone next to it a a defy. 3.7 inches.

It was confused for the Atrix, which was 4.0 inches.

Meaning when they measured the pic, they used it based on the Atrix which they though was 4.0 inches.
But since it was a defy, it is around .3 inches smaller.

4.5-.4= 4.2.

Plus this info was from a while ago.

(not 100% sure, but if that is a defy, (it looks identical) then its definitely not 4.5 inches.

I meant 4.5-.3= 4.2 BTW

I could rock a 5" screen.

4.5" is just too darn big. I'm 6', 190lbs, and that is still too big. Who wants to carry around a battery sucking laptop in their pocket? Yikes.

Hopefully the screen is better than the X2. If so, I could carry around a 4.5 inch screen. My DX doesn't seem very big anyway. The first leaked Bionic pics looked way better than the newer ones...

Apex 2.0 Revolution

I agree, a 5 inch screen would be awesome, 4.5 would be nice.

It is 4.3". The reason why people thought it was 4.5" is because it was next to a Defy and it was originally said that it was next to Atrix which is 4". So the reason why it looked so large in the photos is because it was next to a Defy which is 3.7":
