Motorola Droid Turbo 2

29 Oct 2015

On October 27, 2015, Motorola and Verizon introduced the Motorola Droid Turbo 2.

The Droid Turbo 2 features a 5.4-inch shatterproof QHD display, 48-hours of battery life, a 21MP camera, and 5MP selfie camera, while having a very similar overall look to the other Moto X models that Motorola already announced this year. Additionally, the Turbo 2 contains Qualcomm's Snapdragon 810 (MSM8994) processor, along with 32 or 64GB of internal storage and up to 2TB expandable storage. Powering it through the day will be a 3,760mAh battery. With the Turbocharger, you'll be able to grab an additional 13 hours of battery life by just charging for 15 minutes.

The Droid Turbo 2 also sports a new feature that Motorola calls ShatterShield. According to Motorola, ShatterShield makes the Turbo 2 the "world's first phone screen guaranteed not to crack or shatter". A four-year warranty applies to any cracking or shattering.
