So far, I am less than impressed with the new offerings that have hit the press. The 2015 Moto X is too big, battery too small, rumored Nexus devices less than stellar. Actually, would consider the Moto G if VZW offers it, but unlikely. Had a LG G4 for about a week and it also failed to wow me, lagged, had screen brightness issues that I didn't like and no Moto apps. Anyone else feel the same.
 
I will hang on to mine too if the new droid doesnt out do mine.

I watch the new releases to get an idea of what the new droid will have, specs are ok and i love the idea of stereo speakers. But the battery is going to have to be bigger.

I hope the turbo stays at 5.2, but it probably wont. I dont want a rebranded xplay, i want something closer to to the turbo.

We will just have to wait and see. If the new droid doesn't impress me my only other hope is the note5 which i fear will be glass backed and more style than function. If that is the case, ill actually keep my turbo for as long as i can.

But while the x pure looks promising for an x phone, its def not a droid w that size battery

I'll keep mine until something with a bigger battery or better battery management comes along. So far the note looked promising but then I read somewhere a 3000 mah battery.
 
I read the note will be 4100, which is quite a leap from the note 4. Guess we will see.

Im really hoping the new droid stays 3900 or more. I did get all day use from my note4, hope they dont ruin that w the 5.

Either way im happy w my turbo, even though im seeing the new shiny toys just around the corner.

The biggest improvement to the new droid will likely be the camera, along with some tweaks to the moto software fwiw.
 
I think the 2015 flagships have been evolutionary this cycle. The Droid T is still quite relevant as a premium device running L 5.1 and battery to spare. Nothing in 2015 is significantly improved, even the move to 64 bit chips by android mainstream does not play out with a noticeable difference....yet. Lets see what 2016 brings to table. I am on a 2 year cycle so still happy with DT.
 
I bought the Moto Maxx, (international droid turbo) and here I am, still using my old Moto X. The Maxx is too large for me to hold it comfortably. And every new phone with decent specs is as large or larger. :-(

The Moto X has an inadequate battery, and not enough storage for my music. And yet, it's my regular phone.

I think the Moto Maxx is pretty sweet other than its size.
