The Turbo still gets no love around here?

We didn't even make the list?? Oh well... I'll just be happy for myself.

Its because Google but mostly Verizon is too busy stuffing their pockets and playing with themselves to release 5.1.. Otherwise the Turbo would be an amazing phone...

The Turbo is an amazing phone even without Lollipop. My best guess is that its a Verizon exclusive so they avoid mentioning it and rather mention more widely available devices.

From the looks of it though..looks like 5.1.1 is RIGHT around the corner..doubt that the Turbo gets it

I'm thinking about switching to a Turbo. I'm curious about your statement about 5.1.1. What in 5.1.1 would make it more amazing?

Depends who you ask. If you're the type of person who needs the latest version of android NOW, this phone is not for you.

However, if you like a phone that uses a very stable build, has an amazing battery, is buttery smooth, and you don't mind not having the greatest cell camera, I recommend the Turbo.

I know that a memory leak issue in lollipop was discovered to still exist in the 5.1 update, so I presume that's at least one of the fixes in 5.1.1 (if that does, in fact, exist.)

Agreed. The Verizon exclusive would be reason enough for them to leave it off the list.

Verizon exclusive.

I agree that exclusivity through Verizon kept the Turbo off of the list. America alone has three other big carriers and putting the Turbo in a "top ten" would be irrelevant to a lot of people.

I suppose the same could be said for the OnePlus. Great phone, difficult to get.

We all know the Turbo is a Moto X on steroids, but without all the custom colors. If the Turbo was not a Verizon exclusive it would be on the list instead of the Moto X.

I didn't see a single post on this thread that would require such a nannying response. Could you please tell me what caused you to post this?

There were two or three posts deleted. I'm not sure seeing them would have changed your post, though. Pretty mild stuff.

The turbo is a Verizon only phone, I imagine this was a factor. But the only list of top phones I really care about is my list...turbo is #1 on that list

In the spirit of the thread:

Roses are red
Some Turbos are blue
I still love you my Turbo
Lollipop!
