Droid turbo capacitive buttons to be updated to lollipop?

[AndroidIsMyThing]

I have noticed that the droid turbo has capacitive buttons, meaning that they only light up one way. There is no way to get a software update to change how they look, so when lollipop launches, will the droid turbos being made have the minimalistic lollipop buttons, or will they keep the older look?

I love onscreen buttons, so the capacitive buttons are the only thing putting me off from buying the turbo. If they will eventually come with lollipop buttons, I'll be all for it because they look gorgeous. I know it's a minor thing, but it majorly irks me that they can't change.

Not likely. They might add the new Lollipop onscreen buttons in addition to the capacitive ones but I doubt that too.

Do you think we'll ever see lollipop capacitive buttons?

I think we're stuck with what we got but the buttons will do the same things as of now. Manufacturers have had their own buttons for years now. I remember the Razr HD had different buttons than my Galaxy Nexus.

Since I could get this phone for 100 dollars, i believe the buttons are minor. It just makes me sad that that one beautiful feature of lollipop will be gone.

I've never been bothered by the buttons. It will prob just be something that is accounted for when lollipop is formed for this phone.

I hated the idea of it. Almost went for the LG G3 instead because of it. Went ahead and bought the Turbo. They aren't noticeable. Not a big deal.

Camera and in call volume, however are a disappointment. The ballistic nylon doesn't provide as much grip as expected. Those are my only complaints, I guess. Battery life seems to be good with less than 24 hours under my belt but it won't get 48 hours. Last night I charged it to 90% and used it for 8 hours with 3.5 hours on screen time and was down to about 58%. I keep my brightness down to about 20% and was on Wi-Fi the whole time.

I didn't like the call volume, until I realized the ear speaker isn't centered. Its to the right, and when I moved the phone slightly to put the speaker closer to my ear, its plenty loud.

Thank you. This finally solves one of the only issues I have with Turbo.

I'm wondering if my phone doesn't have an issue with the speaker. It vibrates badly on both notifications and media. Moving my phone to a different position on my ear did improve it but not significantly.

Does anyone else's phone speaker 'vibrate' terribly when pushed past 75%?

Will lollipop update help turbos camera output?

Im new to this site and just got the Droid Turbo yesterday. I heard the Turbo will get the on screen lollipop buttons and the built ins would not work.Thats just what the Verizon guy told me.As far as the volume,did you turn off the voice privacy option?

Go into "audio effects" and disable them for speaker.

That would be awful looking. They should know better.

Yes it would.Hopefully the guy was full of it like most are and we just have to use the built ins instead of getting the onscreens

I think a update may help the camera output a lot. I know people have different views on this but I think the camera in the Droid Maxx (I own two) was greatly improved by upgrades to the Maxx. If Moto can do this to the Maxx I would think they can and will improve the output of the Turbo. No I have no answer as to why its not better to begin with.

There is no way they'll add on screen buttons. That would be retarded.

This is incorrect.
