Great news for anyone who's ever dropped their device
That extra screen protection comes by way of a technology Motorola calls “Shatter Shield.” The Droid Turbo 2 has a flexible 5.4-inch screen that absorbs shock and an extra protective layer that prevents the touchscreen from disabling after a bad drop. Motorola President Rick Osterloh demonstrated the feature during a press event Tuesday, dropping the phone face-down on a concrete block before showing off the lack of damage.Motorola and Verizon on Tuesday unveiled their newest additions to the Droid lineup: The Android-powered Droid Turbo 2 and the Droid Maxx 2. Motorola claims the Droid Turbo 2 is shatterproof, meaning you can drop it face down on the ground without cracking its screen.
The Turbo 2 lasts for 48 hours on a single charge, according to Motorola. It supports fast-charging tech that allows users to get 13 hours of battery life after charging the phone for 15 minutes, the company claims. Meanwhile, the Maxx 2’s battery also lasts for 48 hours, but Motorola says users will get eight hours of battery life after re-charging for 15 minutes it versus 13 with the Turbo 2.
