Motorola's Droid Turbo: The Verdict

The Motorola Droid Turbo is out in the market and the reviews are in. It looks like the best feature so far is the battery life reportedly withstanding 48 hours.

The Droid Turbo is Motorola's battery Goliath, available only on Verizon.

The Droid Turbo starts at the price of US$199 for a 32GB model, and that comes with a two-year contract with the company. The colors come in red and black metallized fiberglass and black ballistic nylon.

The first feature of the Droid Turbo is centered on its performance. It reportedly runs on a 2.7GHz quad-core Snapdragon 805 processor, 3GB of RAM, and 32 or 64GB of internal storage. However, it does not have a microSD storage.

The apps are said to open quickly and the quad-core processor allows the 3D graphic-intensive games to be viewed with ease.

As for the appearance, the phone is 11.2mm thick and has subtle curves and rounded lines around the edges to make it look slimmer than it actually is. The screen is at 5.2 inches and that it has 2,560 x 1,440 pixels, which makes everything look like HD.

Next is the battery, which is 3,900 milliamp-hours, the largest of all the batteries used to power smartphones. However, Motorola claims that it can withstand 48 hours of use before charging, but that has been proven wrong. If it is being constantly used, the battery would drain at a shorter time than the promised hours.

As for its camera and video capability, the pictures look good in the Droid Turbo, which has a large image sensor so it could capture a lot of details. For the video, it could record at 1080p Full HD so the resolution is quite okay.
