Verizon and Motorola will show off some new DROID devices on October 27, and hot on the heels of Motorola accidentally confirming that one of the new products will be the DROID Maxx 2, a Verizon leak has revealed more info about both of the new phones.
Images of Verizon flyers advertising the DROID Maxx 2 and DROID Turbo 2 have leaked. The DROID Maxx 2 is said to boast “up to 48 hours of battery life,” while the DROID Turbo 2 will have “the world’s first shatterproof screen.”
The DROID Turbo 2 is also listed as supporting Moto Maker, which makes it the first DROID device to do so. You’ll apparently be able to use leather and ballistic nylon with the Turbo 2, with more than 1,000 total combinations. You’ll also get one design refresh when you buy a 64GB Turbo 2, which sounds like you’ll be able to get a new Turbo 2 if you tire of the first one you design.
Past rumors have suggested that the DROID Maxx 2 will basically be a Verizon version of the Moto X Play, which isn’t yet available in the US. Rumored specs for the Maxx 2 include a 5.46-inch 1920x1080 display, Snapdragon 615 processor, 21-megapixel rear camera, and 3630mAh battery.
Meanwhile, the DROID Turbo 2 is tipped to be the more high-end of the new DROIDs, packing a 5.43-inch 2560x1440 display, Snapdragon 810 processor, 21-megapixel rear camera, and 3760mAh battery. The inclusion of Moto Maker could be one of the biggest features of the Turbo 2, though, so long as Verizon and Motorola properly explain the design tool to customers. While the Moto X (2nd Gen.) was available through Moto Maker, too, the DROID branding of the Maxx 2 means that it’ll likely get more marketing support from Verizon itself, exposing more folks to the device and Moto Maker.
