If you are referring to the front logo then you can remove the factory installed screen protector.
There is no double tap but there is an app I believe called Screen Off that I got and then set the double tap action on nova launcher to activate that app which then turns the screen off. Works just like the LG phones.I didn't want to start a new thread so I'm asking here. In regards to turning the screen off and turning it on, does this phone have a feature similar to the htc m8 where you can double tap the screen to turn in on and tap the screen to turn it off? My goal with any new phone is to use the buttons the least amount as possible.
And for the speakers, how do they sound when playing music? I know it probably doesn't compare to the htc M series of phones but how does it sound when playing music (without headphones)? I haven't been able to find any of this info yet. thx!
I'd vote no. I'd put it somewhere in the top 5 maybe, but definitely in the top 10.
If I had to make a short list in 30 seconds or so, I'd go with:
1. Nexus 6p
2. Moto XPE
3. Galaxy Note 5
4. Nexus 5x
5. Sony Xperia Z5 (one of them)
6. Moto X Play
7. LG G4
8. DROID TURBO 2
9. Nexus 6
10. HTC M9
But I have zero interest in anything but 1, 2, 4 and 9 on that list.
I will say that I am MUCH happier with this year's TURBO than last year, but it has a lot of not happy points that make it a rather regressive device. IMO, get rid of the logo, make it high quality dual speakers, find a way to give it the durability without resorting to plastic, increase the screen size and screen to body ratio, get it out of Verizon's software grips and price it near the Moto X PE or Nexus 5x - and maybe we have a different conversation.
Turbo 2 Pros:
+ Can do interest-free financing over 24 months via Verizon
Looks like you can do interest-free financing with Motorola via Motorola Credit too.
Seems easiest to do via Verizon & just add it to my bill. If you're aware of an interest-free financing option on the 6P, that would be of interest to me...

But no credit check with VZ.

That is how I paid for mine I had to give them 148.00 down but once it is paid for I can finance another anytime actually like this better then having to wait 2 years to get a discounted phone
That's why I have one on order from Motorola. Going to test my straight talk sim and Fi network sim..
I would LOVE to hear your results with those SIMs..Very curious if straight talk is worth the switch.
Actually in this case the reverse is true. Lenovo has less presence than the smartphone market than Huawei which is the 3rd largest smartphone maker in the world. I see that you've labelled them as Motorola/Lenovo but at this point we may as well just use the lenovo label considering they've pretty much axed all of the original Motorola engineers.- Less proven manufacturer (Huawei) vs Motorola/Lenovo

Having used both the note 5 and turbo 2, the note 5 is noticeably easier to hold in my handWiki's definition: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phablet
