I want to hear everyone's thoughts on the new Droid Turbo! Which would you want the Metallized Glass Fiber or the Balistic Nylon fabric??

21MP Camera

48 Battery Life

8 Hours of Battery Life for 15 minutes of charging

32GB of internal Memory

5.2 Inch Display

SWEET PHONE in my book!!!

Both look to be well built and from what limited chance I have had to handle the Turbo I would go with the Ballistics Nylon. Both have a good feel in your hands however.

I want it, but I am just wandering what would be the better bet. I just wish I could have the Metallized Glass Fiber AND Ballistic Nylon, LOL..

I would love to see one in a carbon fiber case. Lite weight and tough. Now don't ask price of this dream.

Oh man that would be a bit overboard I would have a heart attack from the excitement if I ever saw one of those.

I have the turbo. If i can recomend anything spend the $50 and get the ballist flip case. Its a smart case and you have to down load the app just for the case. You can do cool things with the case. I bought the flip case not even knowing it was a smart case. I guess its smarter than me. You can tell it to take pictures and not even open the case or just flip of the wrist and wala........ Camera is up and running. So that you can catch those fast and presious moments.

Probably a great idea since I've unfortunately, inadvertently and accidentally already scratched my screen. :-(

I have the nylon. It has a great feel and the optional 64gb is nice if you like saving music and not streaming so much. As for the charger...I have a 2014 Moto X and a Xperia Z3v and it charges them faster by a good bit as well. The free Screen Replacement is pretty awesome too.

I have had mine not yet 2 months. 22 days after getting it I drop it bending over and the whole screen shattered. I had the lifeproof case on it. (Don't bother with the lifeproof case, they made wrong and it covers the speaker). Anyways, Verizon replaces first broken screen (hmm, I wonder why?) Getting my new phone, I absolutely love it.. One problem, last week I stopped getting incoming calls, and haven't been able to access my cloud! Anyone have any advice on that?? But I love it, and those issues can happen on any phone. I also got the more rugged one because I am very clumsy...

I Have ballistic nylon droid turbo love phone and battery life is Amazing .....I went with otter box defender and glass screen protector ......btw ballistic nylon nice grip don't need case really

gggggg

Are you able to wipe the Ballistic Nylon? and does dirt cling to it?

B33

I would Think they'd have it sealed in some way for moisture purposes and in by doing this it should be easy to wipe off and to take care of.. but I wouldn't use excessive water and just as a precaution test a small area of the back cover to see how it does with being cleaned..

Aaronp28e

No issues with dust so far really like ballistic nylon with case or without and I do have glass screen protector on it..... No only Verizon get off their ass give us lollipop already

Aaronp28e

I Just use a microfiber cloth dirt does not cling to it .....but my phone in case 85% of time ....i suppose no case lint might get attracted to it ....

gggggg

Thanks all. Did pick up the Blue Sapphire Ballistic nylon. Also a clear case. So far great phone. Have to get use to no SD card though. Coming from a Samsung. Phone does seem a lot sturdier then the samsung phones. Camera is great, same as video. The only thing is, with the samsung you were able to change the video to be able to send it mms. With the droid, you have to take video while in the messaging app. Unless, maybe I'm missing something? New experience for me here. Now to patiently wait for the 5.0. The sales person did say it should soon be getting it, BUT.....that is a "sales" person. :smileyhappy: One more question, if I use Verizon message+, whenever I want to choose a contact, it displays double contacts on every one. BUT the other messaging app, guess you would say the stock app, doesn't. What gives with that? In the people app (contacts) no duplicates, phone (no duplicates).

footballwizz692004

On my LG G2, in my standard contact list, sometimes I see duplicates, but one is the phone number, the second is the facebook account for that person since I synced contacts with facebook. Though in my texting app the facebook duplicates do not appear. not sure if that answers anything, but that is the only time I see duplicates.

gggggg

Don't have FB on phone. Old phone FB actually hacked it and downloaded all my business contacts. Found that out after I requested a copy of my activity on FB. Anyway, I just went through every contact and deleted the duplicate. Using stock messaging app now and done away with Verizon Messages.

I just got the Turbo in the black ballistic nylon. Love it so far. I did put a Tech21 case on it along with screen protector. The only negative I find is the clock icon that looks like a circle divided in thirds with each third having a different shade of blue. Doesn't look like a clock to me. Anyone know how to change that icon?

AZSALUKI

if it's the actual icon for the clock app, you can download an icon pack from the play store and assign a different icon for it. i don't believe that icon will be what shows up in the app drawer (i could be wrong), but it will be the icon for the clock app on the home screen.
