Society is moving increasingly towards smartphones, but with the expectations that these smartphones can perform as well as a powerful home computer. This creates a demand for speed and sustainability. The average consumer always wants a faster processor and a longer battery life so that they do not to need to plug their phone in every couple hours, so Motorola set out to appeal to these aspects with the DROID Turbo. It has a retail cost of $599.99 without contract and a cost of $199.99 with two year contract. Despite this hefty price tag, the Turbo is a worthwhile purchase. It is quick, lasts a long time, and has a beautiful high resolution screen but because of all this, it is bulkier compared to other smartphone models. PERFORMANCE The Turbo has a Qualcomm Snapdragon 805 processor with 2.7 GHz quad-core CPU with 64-bit memory access. This highly advanced processor allows the user to quickly access any apps or information that they need in mere seconds.

This requires me to frequently switch between the Google Chrome browser and the Quickoffice app. Because of the high speed processor I can do this in very little time and not miss anything thing the professor is teaching in the lecture. Also the time it takes for pages to load is very short depending on what internet speed I am currently using. DISPLAY With a 5.2 inch screen (pictured above) the Turbo has one of the biggest screen on the market. It is very sharp with a resolution of 1440x2560 on a Quad HD screen. Perfect for watching movies and scrolling through pictures. I personally use it to watch shows on Netflix between classes. With a set of good quality headphones it is very easy to get sucked into the experience. Even high quality live action shows don’t lose their quality when using the Turbo. Sometimes I even choose to use it instead of my flat scr
