Coming from Turbo

[this_is_nascar]

My 2-year old Turbo is to the point where I have to charge 2 or 3 times a day. I really love this phone, but can't seem to find a new/unused one anywhere.

It seems the Turbo-2 would be the next logical step. I'm assuming if I purchased one, all u do is take my Verizon card from the Turbo, install into the Turbo-2 and I'm up and running.

Can anyone see anything wrong with proceeding down this path?

The Turbo 2 isn't a great phone. A lot of people have charging issues with the phone in particular.

Why not a Moto Z Force, or Moto Z Play (particularly for its long battery life)?

Thx. I was thinking about the Z Force.

Thx. I was thinking about the Z Force.

I had the turbo, then the turbo 2. Now I have the Z Force.
The turbo was a great phone.The turbo 2 was an ok phone. The Z Force is an awesome phone.
I would recommend skipping the turbo 2 and getting a Z play or Z Force.

I came also from turbo to dt2. I checked all phone before get dt2. What important for me? Batery, fast process, and hard back side. Motorola always gave to me what i wanted. Im not scared when i put dt2 to my back pocket of jeans.. They made for hardly use.. Yes moto z wonderful photos but soo thin.. I don't think so i can put back pocket.. All day using Bluetooth wireless earphones.. And battery support me till evening.. . Soo u have to think what you waiting from a phone.

The Moto Z Play does have a wired headphone jack and has a battery that lasts longer than the Turbo 2. At this point I can't see any reason to buy a Turbo 2, unless you REALLY, REALLY need the shatter shield display and price is that important. (Plus you can add a battery mod that adds thickness to the phone as well as battery life.)

I also think it's foolish to carry a phone in your back pocket, by the way. Why do people do this with a breakable object that costs so much money to replace and is nearly impossible to repair yourself? I've never understood this.
