Oddly enough I'm thinking about going down to a Droid 3. I want the keyboard lol I know the droid 4 has one also but there isn't as many cool images for it.

Anyone still using one and could tell me how good the performance still is and if you would recommend it or not?

 

Currently have a LG G2

I have the Canadian version of the Droid 3, the Motorola XT860 4G.  Only difference is that the XT860 has a 4G radio and a slightly different boot animation.  Performance is still decent, however you're going to want to conserve the 512MB of RAM, or it will get laggy.  However, the lag USUALLY resolves itself due to the Dual Core.  But yeah, owned this thing for two years, still a fantastic phone, and it beats out all the budget phones out there. (Maybe not the Moto E or Moto G but still)

QUOTE ME OR I PROBABLY WON'T SEE YOUR RESPONSE

You can't expand the RAM, however you can avoid installing applications that use a lot of RAM, like Facebook.  I also recommend uninstalling apps that auto-launch, as this can get annoying really fast.
