DROID Turbo 2 unveiled by Verizon and Motorola

Moto doesn't want you to worry about dropping your phone again

Verizon just unveiled the DROID Turbo 2 during a press event in Manhattan on Tuesday. The phone features a shatterproof screen that’s developed using Motorola’s shatter shield technology.



Motorola demonstrated just how strong the screen is on stage during its press event, and even dropped it to the floor facing screen-down. It came from the test unscathed. Inside, a flexible AMLED screen is surrounded by an aluminum core that keeps it safe. Additionally, there’s an extra fail-safe layer on top of the touchscreen to keep it safe. That’s in addition to another interior lens and an exterior lens that prevents external scratches and damage.

The DROID Turbo 2 can be customized using Moto Maker, with more than 1,000 different combinations available on the site. Motorola will allow buyers of the 64GB model to refresh — or essentially redesign — the Droid Turbo 2 one time after their initial purchase, which is pretty convenient if you'll be keeping the phone for a couple years.
It also features up to 48 hours of battery life and TurboPower, for adding up to 13 hours of charge in just 15 minutes.

There’s also a Snapdragon 810 processor, a 21MP camera, a 5.4-inch Quad HD display, a 5-megapixel front-facing wide-angle camera.

The Turbo 2 will be available for $26 (32GB) per month or $30 per month (64GB) starting this Thursday
