I'm reading a lot of misinformation and false information fromm people on here and I don't want them to lead you in the wrong direction.

If you have questions, Ask me and I will answer them. A lot more people know me on and here I've always provided good information, because of where I work.

I do want to clarify that there is certain things like discussing your bill and getting special approvals that i will not answer, Because i can lose my job.

Do you think Motorola will release a phone similar to the Turbo but for other carriers? That phone makes me wish I was still on VZW.

That would be a question for Motorola, I can only provide information that pertains to Verizon. Sorry bud.

I know this, Motorola and Verizon have an agreement of this model as an exclusive.

Best guess for what deals might be had for this phone on Black Friday?

Re: Those who want to purchase the Turbo and have questions, Ask me

Thanks for providing such valuable insight, Joe.

To receive the $100 trade-in credit, must we turn in our currently-activated smartphone, or will ANY functional smartphone suffice? If any phone, can someone direct me to a definition of "smartphone?" I have some borderline devices that may or may not qualify.

Thanks!

Joe - can I make this into an "I've got the DROID TURBO, you've got questions" thread or is the intent more for Verizon's policies?

Re: Those who want to purchase the Turbo and have questions, Ask me

Will a Verizon manager allow me to upgrade a line 2 months early due to an error? The Verizon customer support over the phone said it wasn't a problem and are actually calling me late in the day tomorrow as a follow up. I'd preferably like to have it in hand for the weekend though!

I've also been a Verizon customer for 18 years.

Re: Those who want to purchase the Turbo and have questions, Ask me

I suppose I'll ask the obligatory camera question... so, how's the camera? I know you might not have all the details on the sensor, etc, but have you had any hands-on experience? Most new phones take great pictures in the right lighting, but hows the low-light performance in particular?

Re: Those who want to purchase the Turbo and have questions, Ask me

Family (4 lines) is on the More Everything Unlimited Talk and Text Plan. 3 GB data shared. Monthly amount, not incl. taxes is $220.00, or $55 each.

How can we reduce our monthly bill?

If I get a new Droid Turbo, would going to the EDGE program lower our bill?

If I drop out of the family plan, get a separate account, my family stays in as 3 lines will that lower anybody's cost from the current $55 month?

Re: Those who want to purchase the Turbo and have questions, Ask me

Joe, can it be an older smart phone or is VZW requiring the trade to be our "current" phone that is active?

Joe, those tempered glass protectors you mentioned are Verizon branded right? I love the feel of those on the S5 so I hope so. :)

So glad no more cheapo plastic.

Re: Those who want to purchase the Turbo and have questions, Ask me

Does it support VoLTE Out of the box... Or does it need future update like the X14?
No talk and data is killing me with the X! And I have 2 days left to return ??????

Joe,
Will the 64GB beast be available in the stores? When I got my current device, the S3, I could only get the 32GB online and all they ever had in the stores was the 16GB version.

My store went in the back and confirmed for me that have 64gb in stock. So at least some do.

Is there an official car dock accessory? Desktop dock? (Like last year's griffin docks for the ultra/maxx, that put the phone in a special dock mode...)

Re: Those who want to purchase the Turbo and have questions, Ask me

Does having the Turbo "in hand" sway you toward choosing it over the Nexus? Or are you still going to wait to make your decision? Thanks.

Turn in ANY Functional Smartphone that is in good condition.
