Motorola Is About To Release An Android Phone With Super-Long Battery Life, And Here's What It Looks Like

Image
Motorola and Verizon are expected to unveil a new Droid phone on Tuesday, but we may already have a clear idea of what it will look like. The Twitter account Moto Firmware (which is not affiliated with Motorola) has just posted a new set of images that reportedly  show Motorola's new Droid Turbo  in its retail packaging ( via Android Police ). Based on the photos, it seems as if the new Droid will look a lot like the second-generation Moto X and Nexus 6.  The Droid Turbo appears to feature a body that is rounder than that of both the current Droid Maxx and Droid Razr M. It's hard to tell exactly how large the phone is, but because there are virtually no bezels around its screen we can expect the display to be fairly big.  The phone's most impressive feature, however, is expected to be its battery life. If the reports are accurate, the device's 3,900 mAh battery should be able to last 48 hours on a single charge. If that's the case, the Droid Turbo will most likely...

One of the biggest alterations will be the introduction of Material Design — a new design language that puts more of an emphasis on shadows and colors.

It depends on which type of phone you have and which carrier you're on. There are also tons of Android phones that are left out of major carrier updates too. We still don't know exactly when Android 5.0 will be released for every phone, but here's a roundup of what we know so far.

If you’ve taken a trip to your carrier’s brick and mortar store to buy a new phone in the past several years, chances are you probably haven’t come across any Sony smartphones. That’s because the company has largely been focusing its smartphone business on overseas markets like Europe and Japan. Now, it looks like that’s starting to change Sony is debuting its first major smartphone for Verizon on Oct. 23 — the Xperia Z3v. It’s a spin on its recent Xperia Z3 flagship, which just launched on T-Mobile’s network last month. It comes with a 5.2-inch 1080p screen and features a glass rear panel that makes the back of the phone feel as slick as the touch screen. It'll cost $199 on a two-year contract. It'll cost approximately $680 without a contract. It’s a nice phone, but Sony will have to offer a really compelling experience to compete with brands that are already incredibly popular in the US smartphone space, especially Apple and Samsung. Sony hopes to do that in a couple of way...
