Must-need accessories for Droid X?

[vettechick99]

You guys convinced me touch-screen keyboards were ok so I ordered two Droid X's for DH and I. I am going to buy two car chargers - what other accessories do I neeeeeeeed?

Thanks!

I have a case for mine. This makes it easier to tell mine from DH's when they are both on the counter.

You shouldn't really need anything else besides a car charger.

The case I got for mine is kind of a rubbery material, and it's been a lifesaver! I've dropped mine (a few times.. ) and it holds up like a champ. DF got one with a plastic case, dropped it, and the case shattered and left a huge scratch on his phone.

The only other thing I bought for them (besides chargers) are screen protectors. I think they make the touch screen a little slicker & easier to use, plus I don't have to worry too much about scratching up my screen.

Possibly a backup battery, if you would be away from a charger and have heavy use for some length of time.

Also, this app.....

Stick with the touch screen, Allison, you will learn to love it. I still have my BB Tour (I need it), and find myself trying to do the screen at times, LOL.

If you already have cell phones double check the car chargers. I had an LG flip phone and upgraded to the Droid 2,and the charger fit! Will save you some money!

I agree with the screen protector, silicone case, car charger and ear buds. I would also look into the car dock so you can use it as a GPS. The GPS on mine works WAY better then my actual GPS .

I looked at the silicone cases. But since my Droid X will be living in my purse, I chose a leather case. The phone fits completely in the case, and the case closes. With the silicone cases, the touchscreen part of the phone isn't protected... and there's an awful lot of junk in my purse to bang against the phone.

Make sure you get the screen protectors which are specifically designed for the Droid X. The Droid X screen is larger than the screens on the other Droids. If the package just says Droid, the screen protector will be too small. They come 3 to a pack, so you don't need to order more than 1 pack.

Also, if you or your Dh may be needing to charge the phone at work, a second regular charger. I just bought one that charges directly from the USB on my work computer. It's been a life saver more than once.

Your Blackberry chargers should work with your Droid as well (the mini USB). The home charger detaches from the outlet plug and is a USB charger for your computer too.
