Verizon’s Motorola DROID Turbo leaked in new photos
We’ve been hearing murmurings that Motorola is working on a super powerful device for Verizon. It’s been given the name “Motorola DROID Turbo” for now, and aside from its impressive computing components (including a Snapdragon 801 processor and 3GB of RAM) that name could be a nod to another neat feature — super fast charging.
Today we may have gotten our first clear look at the device. HelloMotoHK has leaked photos of the device showing a design that builds on the Kevlar-infused Motorola DROID MAXX from yesteryear (pictured on the right in the photo above). The design seems a lot more rounded than the DROID MAXX was, a move no doubt made to improve ergonomics.
The leak also gives us a look at the camera. We don’t know much about the sensor, but it will be donning two LED flashes instead of just a single one. The photo doesn’t show it well but the device is also supposed to sport front-facing speakers. Finally, we see that the capacitive buttons have made a return — no on-screen navigation here. Finally we’re told to expect wireless charging, 32GB of internal storage and a 5.2 inch display with 2560 x 1440 resolution.
Verizon’s DROID Landing Twitter account lit up a while ago, something that usually only happens when they’re getting ready to release a new DROID device or a contest. It’s been rather quiet since, but if the goal is to get this phone out before the end of the year then it should be booting back up in no time. We imagine Motorola’s quite busy with the launches of the Moto 360, Moto G and Moto X, but we’re just as excited to see this bad boy make its way to market.
