Description

The Motorola DROID Turbo 2 is a high-end Android beast available exclusively on Verizon's network. One of its stand-out features is the display, protected by Motorola's ShatterShield technology, making it highly resistant to cracking. Plus, the Turbo 2 is the first DROID eligible for the Moto Maker treatment, allowing one to choose between various materials and color combinations prior to ordering their personalized handset. Hardware specs include a Snapdragon 810 SoC with 3GB of RAM and 32 or 64 GB of storage, plus a microSD card for storage expansion. The main camera provides 21MP of resolution and promises good low-light performance, while the 5MP front cam should snap pretty selfies. And with a 3760mAh battery with quick charging, the DROID Turbo 2 endures through a couple of days of regular use.

This device is also known as Motorola Moto X Force, Motorola XT1580

Motorola Droid Turbo 2
Phone owned for less than a year

I have always enjoyed using Motorola Droid phones, my first smartphone was a Droid Mini, and the Turbo 2 is no exception when it comes to quality. It has proven to be a reliable utility that I use everyday.The UI is smooth, and it almost never staggers or freezes, probably due to its 3 GB of RAM and clean android interface. Some might complain about the lack of features. But for a person who just wants his phone to WORK, and not have to worry about bugs and such, it makes an incredible smartphone. The Aluminum frame makes the phone feel sturdy. Since the phone has the Snapdragon 810, it tends to overheat slightly when taxed with heavy graphics, or heavy internet usage. However, the heat never seems to be at a dangerous level, and it never is too heated to hold in the hand. I would recommend this phone to people who put reliability and long lasting hardware, high on their priority list.

My Turbo 2 Experience
Phone owned for more than a year

Overall I have always had a Motorola. Well, my first smartphone was actually a Blackberry Storm (Storm 2 after doing an insurance claim). Motorola has always been much more reliable and durable from my experience. I have been working in the cellphone industry for 7 years now and Motorola's always seem to hold up longer and withstand a pretty decent beating. I started with the Droid X, then Droid Razr MAXX, Droid MAXX, now the Turbo 2. Waiting for the next big thing to come, after the Z Force of course.
