Motorola has just come up with a solution for folks with the Motorola Droid Turbo 2. The said device is claimed to be the first device to come out with a shatterproof screen, which should be something interesting to check out.
These days, accidental drops are a given and could not be avoided. Of course, some drops are a result of carelessness, but the fact remains that replacing busted LCD displays can be a hassle, not to mention costly. In worst case scenarios, broken LCD displays will end up leaving a phone shelved or unusable.
Motorola reveals that it took them three years to develop the shatterproof 5.4-inch QHD display (2560 x 1440) for the Motorola Droid Turbo 2, so this is one key feature folks may want to seriously look into.
But aside from the shatterproof display there are, of course, the other features to consider.
This boasts of features that include a Qualcomm Snapdragon 810 processor, 3 GB of RAM, 32 GB of internal storage that is expandable up to 2 TB via microSD, a 21-megapixel main camera and a front-facing 5-megapixel shooter.
Aside from that, another feature worth noting about the Droid Turbo 2 is perhaps its battery which is good for up to 48 hours of use. Worth noting as well is its TurboPower charging capability. A 15-minute charge can hold up the device for up to 13 hours of power which should be great for people who want immediate juice on hand.
While the Droid Turbo 2, which is also known as the Moto X Force to some markets such as the United Kingdom, does seem to be interesting with that shatterproof display pitch, the price could be something that may hinder people from getting one. The Droid Turbo 2 is priced for about $624, a price that may be a bit steep considering there are other devices that offer better specs at that price.
Of course, the rarity of the shatterproof display is a reason for such but depending on the smartphone brand, would it not be cheaper to get a phone and resort to LCD replacements in case it does break?
Despite that claim from the Motorola official blog page that 53% of smartphone owners end up with busted displays, would $624 be a reasonable price for such a preventive measure?
