this is the Motorola Droid turbo - so we just dropped this phone from about four or five feet onto a hard rock surface and the screen looks pristine this phone has been through the wringer mind you already our New York editors have dropped this phone smashed it against surfaces this thing has a giant bend in the phone already scratches all around the corners and yet this screen hasn't cracked once instead of having a single layer of glass that's laminated directly to the screen for optimum clarity it has five layers for protection there's a bit of an air gap between the droid turbo 2 screen layers so it can't transmit quite as much light as other phones it doesn't get quite as bright especially outdoors the other thing is because it doesn't have that gorilla glass on the front it can't necessarily resist scratches to make up for that Motorola has actually built a screen protector onto the screen and you can buy a new one for $30 if you scratch it I actually like it to design a little bit better than the Moto X pure edition and some of the previous Motorola designs we've seen recently it's got a nice set of metallic buttons here that are indented into the frame for easy grip I love the ridges that Motorola uses on the power button and you can customize the whole thing with Motorola's motor maker website and while you can't replace the droid turbo 2 S battery motorola does have a removable SD card slot in here speaking of the battery that's the other reason you might want to consider this phone motorola promises 48 hours of battery life on a charge while we didn't get quite that in our tests it's definitely one of the longest-lasting phones we've used you plug it into the included charger that comes with this phone and it'll charge up 1/4 of the battery in just 15 minutes you can plop it on a wireless charging pad and work at home or in the car and it'll top it up the rest of the way that it's gotten both forms of wireless charging built in the only other company that does that is Samsung on the galaxy s6 line I don't need to tell you the droid turbo 2 is a blazing fast phone I don't need to list off its specs this Snapdragon 810 processor the 3 gigabytes of RAM the quad HD display other phones have those things but they don't have unbreakable screens so we decided to cap off this review with little something special as soon as you're done watching this and back to cnet.com you won't believe what we did to this four phone
