Verizon Motorola DROID Turbo Looks like a third back option

[garyart1]

So I finally decided on the red phone and now they are showing another option for the back: textured black. I was hoping on the softer kevlar back and this may be closer. I am not crazy about the high gloss back.

Here's another look at the Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo | Android Central

I hope they are just like the Kevlar on the current droid maxx. The crappy covered Kevlar on the droid ultra sucks!

Am I crazy or is it look like the phone that is slowly revealing itself on the verizonwireless website has the textured back panel.

Or is the information being leaked in a manner to drive you crazy? I have almost decided to ban myself from looking at anything Turbo related until the phone walks into the stores for hands on inspection. Too much heartburn

The image on that page is larger than it appears. Here is the full resolution. Yes, it looks like the textured back!



PS: What's with those numbers on the lighting on the right? Were those always there -- "15" and "5"? I don't remember them. And there appear to be others on the left, obscured by a pole. ??

I can't recall if the numbers are the same, but I do remember seeing numbers on those lamps when the site went live.

Re: Looks like a third back option

Since the photo appears seems to be of a professional photographer's setup, my guess would be a number identifying the piece of equipment they are attached to for the photographer. Those types of tags have been used for easy identification of things like triggered remote flashes. Because of the darkness of the picture it is difficult to determine if this is really the case here. Just a guess, but then it is not the first not probably the last guess on this forum.

I don't remember seeing a picture of the front of the red phone. Is it red?

Thanks. For some reason reason it didn't register as a picture of one red phone. I viewed it as a picture of two phones - black front and red back. It was my early stage cataracts - That is my story and I am sticking to it.

Is it just me, or don't most of us case our phone anyway?

I don't. I don't need the phone to be any larger than it already is.

I don't either. The only thing that can hurt these virtually indestructible Droids is nuclear war and sadly...Motorola's own botched updates (see Droid Razr M and Droid Maxx Forums)

The droid line is one of the phones I don't throw a case on because it has that Kevlar. Can't really get scratches, dents or cracks in it.

That's what I thought about my first Maxx until a precision strike dented and cracked the $&#! bezel. That thin strip of plain-ol'-plastic between the gorilla glass and the Kevlar. The replacement has remained suited up. Not sure what I'll do with the Turbo. Will have to experience it for a while before I fret about it.

Ya that's always a possibility. But for the most part the phone is pretty resistant to that kind of stuff. I'd much rather have the Kevlar than say a glass back Or glossy plastic. As long as the camera lens doesn't protrude which it shouldn't given the turbos likely thickness I'll just throw a screen protector on it and call it good.

Re: Looks like a third back option

I think it would be odd to see textured, kevlar black, and kevlar red as the options.
