Motorola Droid Turbo: Mother of all the Smartphones

Dr. House

No Regrets
*cdn1.vox-cdn.com/entry_photo_images/12917892/droidturbo-1_verge_super_wide.jpg

The Droid Turbo looks Moto X in steroids: its 5.2 inch display has 2560x1440 Quad-HD resolution at an insane 562 pixels per inch, a big boost from the 1080p in the Moto X and other similarly-priced phones. It has a speedy 2.7GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon 805 processor with 3GB RAM, which is about the fastest mobile CPU you can get right now, also found in Nexus 6.

The rear camera on the Droid Turbo is 21 megapixels sony lens, can record 4K video at 24 fps, with features like slow-motion, burst mode, panorama and a dual-LED flash. The front-facing camera is 2 megapixels, and can record 1080p video.

But the Droid Turbo's best feature might be its 3,900mAh battery, which offers up to 48 hours of battery life according to Motorola and Verizon. And that battery charges fast, too: an included Turbo Charger allows the Turbo to get 8 hours of use in only 15 minutes of charge time.

When the phone's lowest memory is 32 gigs is not really a flaw. If it supports otg it's definitely not a flaw.

And how will the system manage the battery performance? I mean stretching the timeline from 15 min to 8 hours? Will the turbo feature will make it a Casio calculator?

If having a memory card is flaw to concern in big selling phones like apple iPhone and google Nexus. They already been fail in the market.
 
The amount of failed fail's already used in this thread is a big fail.

Anyways, Beast of a phone. Would be nice if it comes to India but looks unlikely.

I simply don't get it . Why use 2K display or anything beyond what human eye can justify ?
More pixels being rendered will consume more battery , higher processing power , enormous size of the phone.
All that can be said about them is that if manufacturer's won't force 4K , then there's less need for more powerful wafers. That being said , I guess this is what keeping them pushing new phones in market..

This might come up as a Global Launch since it is for the first time going to be sold outside US i.e. in Brazil. Might come to India as well.

3900 mah battery. Will last you a minimum of a day.

QHD is the next buzz word. All the manufacturers in 2015 will have a QHD phone.

If if had been a 1080p , it would have lasted even longer.
But never mind , let the technology cross it's leaps and bounds and let them pack zillions of pixels on the screen and push a big arse li-ion pillow in the hood. Cause if they don't then ,who is going to buy the next iteration of over-kill hardware. :p

So looks like Motorola learnt from Burn In issues to not include on screen buttons on its Amoled displays?

How much does it costs to pop in a new set of super-retina capable eye-balls ? They should work on it too.
