The Motorola
Droid Turbo is a powerful smartphone with the latest high-end components, a
better-than-average rear-facing camera, and a guaranteed two days of battery
life
The Turbo
features a fantastic 5.2-inch Quad HD Super AMOLED display with a pixel density
of about 564 pixels-per-inch. The display is fully visible from any angle, and
its color profiles aren’t overly saturated like Samsung’s Super AMOLED
displays. My only complaint is that it would have been nice if Motorola
extended the display down a bit and used soft, on-screen buttons instead of
off-screen capacitive buttons.
Droid Turbo
is one hell of a smartphone. It’s packed with a quad-core 2.7GHz Qualcomm
Snapdragon 805 processor, 3GB of RAM, and a whopping 3,900mAh battery pack,
which we’ll touch upon in the next section.
Video
capture tops out at 24 frames-per-second in 4K recording mode and 30
frames-per-second in 1080p recording mode.
Rear-facing
21-megapixel camera. The Droid Turbo runs near-stock Android 4.4.4 KitKat,
though it will soon get an update to Android 5.0 Lollipop. The interface is
plain vanilla for the most part, and will require some tender love and care
when you first bring it home. It also doesn’t utilize the nifty Google Launcher
on phones like the Nexus 5, where Google Now lives on its own Home screen.
