Motorola reveals Droid Turbo handset

Motorola has officially revealed the Droid Turbo smartphone, which is only available in the U.S. through Verizon, Digital Spy said.

The handset's standout features include a powerful 3900mAh battery, capable of lasting for up to 48 hours.

A mighty 2.7 GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon 805 processor is also on board, as well as a 5.2-inch Quad HD screen with 565 ppi.

High quality images and 4K video can be captured on the device too, using its 21-megapixel camera.

Paired with a Motorola Turbo Charger, the handset charges up to eight hours of battery within just 15 minutes.

Verizon is launching the device in two storage options on two-year contracts - the 32GB variant will come in Metallic Black, Metallic Red or Ballistic Nylon for $199, while the 64GB version will be available in Ballistic Nylon for $249.

U.S. customers can get their hands on the Droid Turbo from October 30 through Verizon.com. Unfortunately, as the Droid series is Verizon-exclusive, it is unlikely to ever launch in the UK.
