The Droid Turbo 2 is a high end Android smartphone made by Motorola, available exclusively in the United States for the Verizon Droid brand. Outside the United States, it is branded as the Moto X Force. It was released on October 27, 2015.[1] The phone is marketed as having "the world's first shatterproof screen."[2]
Hardware
The Droid Turbo 2 features a 2 GHz octa-core Snapdragon 810 processor, 3 gibibytes of RAM, 32 or 64 gibibytes of internal storage which can be expanded up to 2 tebibytes with a MicroSD card. It has a 5.4-inch AMOLED display, a 3,760 mAh battery as well as support for Motorola's TurboPower and Qualcomm Quick Charge 2.0, as well as PMA and Qi wireless charging standards, and a 21-megapixel main camera flanked by a 5 MP front camera with a flash.[3][4]
This was the first Droid phone to be customizable through Motorola's Motomaker service, which allows customers to select various materials, frame colors, and accent colors. The service also allows users to add a custom greeting which shows up during the Droid Turbo 2's initial startup screen, and customers who choose the pebbled leather back can also get a custom engraving. The 64 GiB version comes with a free "Design Refresh" which allows owners to trade in their phone for a newly designed one within a year of the original purchase date.[5]
Shatterproof screen
This is the first Motorola smartphone that features Motorola's "Shatter Shield" technology, which consists of two touchscreen elements, reinforced by an internal aluminum frame to make it resistant to bending and cracking, although this does not protect against scratches or other superficial screen damage. The top layer of the display is designed to be user-replaceable. The screen and case also have a water repellent nanocoating to protect the device from liquids that could damage internal components.[4][6]
