Phone owned for less than a year

Ive used it for almost a year, there was no any drawback or deficiency i found. A high end specifications phone with a really affordable price. Nice built, easy use, A very good reception. Now im deciding to revert back to gForce though i still have a very high end android of a very much renowd company but im not satisfied with it.

Motorola Droid Turbo 2

Phone owned for less than a year

I have always enjoyed using Motorola Droid phones, my first smartphone was a Droid Mini, and the Turbo 2 is no exception when it comes to quality. It has proven to be a reliable utility that I use everyday.The UI is smooth, and it almost never staggers or freezes, probably due to its 3 GB of RAM and clean android interface. Some might complain about the lack of features. But for a person who just wants his phone to WORK, and not have to worry about bugs and such, it makes an incredible smartphone. The Aluminum frame makes the phone feel sturdy. Since the phone has the Snapdragon 810, it tends to overheat slightly when taxed with heavy graphics, or heavy internet usage. However, the heat never seems to be at a dangerous level, and it never is too heated to hold in the hand. I would recommend this phone to people who put reliability and long lasting hardware, high on their priority list.

My Turbo 2 Experience

Posted: Jan 17, 2017, 11:46 AM

Phone owned for more than a year

Overall I have always had a Motorola. Well, my first smartphone was actually a Blackberry Storm (Storm 2 after doing an insurance claim). Motorola has always been much more reliable and durable from my experience. I have been working in the cellphone industry for 7 years now and Motorola's always seem to hold up longer and withstand a pretty decent beating. I started with the Droid X, then Droid Razr MAXX, Droid MAXX, now the Turbo 2. Waiting for the next big thing to come, after the Z Force of course.

What I like

love the front facing flash. definitely get some great selfies under any lighting condition.
Rear camera is great during the day time.
battery lasts me about a day with typical usage including apps that utilize a decent amount of battery for GPS.
shatterproof display

What I don't like

wish the camera was better at night like the GS7's
the speaker (not earpiece) is definitely downgraded from the previous motorola that i owned.
display not scratch proof or burn proof... lol (yes, i burned mine in a fire on accident)
the backing is coming off
charging port has needed repair twice now
