Motorola Mobility has been making smartphones for the market in the United States for many years, but one of the most popular to be developed is the Motorola DROID Turbo. The brand new DROID handset was released late last year and took the Verizon Wireless world by storm. The Motorola DROID Turbo was developed to replace the DROID MAXX and maintains a very similar design. Some of the new materials that the phone is made with make it nearly indestructible according to some reports and reviewers.
The phone sports a ballistic nylon fiber reinforced with Kevlar to give it a long lasting shell. Another design feature that most users like is the fact that the back, home and multitask function buttons were moved off the screen and made capacitive ones just below it. With other new models on the market from HTC and Samsung it was time for Motorola to do something about the Motorola DROID Turbo. With that being said, many reports are indicating that the price was dropped up to 25 percent.
If you are looking to upgrade your Android smartphone, but are unable to afford the HTC M9, Samsung Galaxy S6 or S6 Edge, you should look towards the Motorola DROID Turbo. In most cases, you can pick it up from the Verizon Wireless website for just $149.99, or $199.99 for the upgraded storage model. The phone has more than positive reviews and is in line to get the latest Android software, according to reports.
The Android Lollipop 5.1 software has started to make its way around the world and the Motorola DROID Turbo is on the list. Some online sources claim that it could be coming sooner than later, so that is also a bonus. One feature that is supposed to come with Lollipop 5.1 is the support for VoLTE. That feature alone could catapult the new smartphone into a whole other category with just a few others that have the same support.
The phone was announced last year and comes with a nice, 5.2-inch display with a 2k resolution, a whopping 3GB of RAM and the Snapdragon 805 chipset from Qualcomm. If those features were not enough to get your attention, the phone also comes with the best camera you can find on a Motorola phone right now. The 21MP camera sensor on the back side of the device comes from Sony and is expected to set the bar quite high for other smartphones on the market. Right now you can only buy the Motorola DROID Turbo through the Verizon Wireless network.
