The 4.3" Super AMOLED Plus display is extremely bright and vivid
And performs exceptionally well in sunlight compared to other display techs
Verizon's 4G LTE is fast. I experienced anywhere from 1020Mbps down in a variety of locations
With consistent sub100ms pings

Plasticy designSingle-core performanceCost
The Droid Charge is large. It's also pricey
Especially considering it doesn't have some of the latest features
Like a dual-core processor
Unreliable data connections
Poor battery life
Sluggish user interface
Pricey
Cheap-feeling plastic chassis
Back gets hot during longer LTE sessions
Plastic housing feels cheap. Older CPU benchmarks behind its competitors. Battery life not terrific.
4G coverage is still limited
Browsing speed tests were a mixed bag
Phone is large
Lacking in distinctive design
Battery wears out too soon
Plastic shell
Underwhelming specs
Inconsistent TouchWiz UI
Expensive
Some permanent bloatware
Can drop to 3G when indoors
Video recording looks out of focus
Slippery plastic feel
No LED notification light
Large Flash sites will lockup the web browser
TouchWiz 3.0 is slow
Buggy
And in no way improves the user experience. With TouchWiz 4.0 coming on the Galaxy S II (and being exceptionally fast)
One can hope the Charge will get the bump to TW4 when it receives Android 2.3
If you live in a 3Gonly coverage area
The Charge has a tendency to drop your data connection for no apparent reason and you have to reboot to reacquire it. I almost thre
Gigantic
4G LTE kind of a letdown
Horrendous battery life
Plasticky look
Call quality
Short battery life
Older hardware compared to recent smartphones
The design is kind of negative at times
The battery didn't live up to what a lot of people said
