The Droid Turbo 2 is a smartphone, that has been released by [Motorola](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/motorola-razr-60-ultra) and Verizon [Wireless](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/Wireless-PC-cooling-fans), that is equipped with a fabulous shatter-proof screen.

This phone's screen is fitted with what is called the Moto ShatterShield, something Motorola claims to be the world's first ever shatter-proof screen. This screen has an aluminum base under a highly flexible display, a pair of reduntant touch layers and dual glass lenses to top it all off.

In addition to the shatter-proof screen, the Droid Turbo 2 has a 5.4-inch quad HD display and a 21 megapixel camera with dual flash. It is powered by a [Qualcomm](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/duraforce-pro-3) Snapdragon 810 processor with a 2.0 GHz octa-core CPU and offers 3 GB RAM, not to mention either 32 or 64 GB of storage.

The Droid Turbo 2 is perfect for people with buttery fingers, and could spawn a new generation of shatter-proof phones.
