New photos show the Motorola Droid Turbo powered on, re-confirm its features

Although Motorola hasn’t announced the Droid Turbo yet, we’ve seen the handset quite a few times until now. However, most of the images that we saw were renders. Today, we can take a look at a set of live photos showing the Droid Turbo (codenamed Quark) - which confirm, once again, some of its features.

Sporting a 5.2-inch display with 1440 x 2560 pixels, the Droid Turbo will be the second Motorola-made smartphone to offer a Quad HD screen (after the Nexus 6). The handset features a water-repellent coating, Kevlar fiber on the back, a powerful quad-core Snapdragon 805 processor clocked at 2.7 GHz, 3 GB of RAM, and 32 GB of internal memory. Its rear camera (a 21 MP one with 4K video recording) is flanked by two LED flashes, while the battery is a massive 3900 mAh one. Like all other Droid models, the new one will be exclusively available via Verizon Wireless (but Motorola may want to launch similar models via other carriers, in other markets).

The Droid Turbo should be officially introduced next week, on October 28, and Verizon will probably start selling it shortly after that. As we told you not long ago, the handset will have red and black versions.
