When it comes to the Nexus 6 and the DROID Turbo 2 they might both be manufactured by Motorola but it is clear they are very different. Here is how the Nexus 6 from Google compares to the new shatterproof device.

Design

In this category the DROID Turbo 2 has an unbeatable lead as it can be customized on the Moto Maker website. Here the metal frame and accents for the device can be chosen along with alternate back panels made from Soft Grip, ballistic nylon or leather. However, the device does not have a fingerprint scanner and the same is also true for the bigger Nexus 6. The device from Google was manufactured by Motorola and comes with a metal frame and plastic on its back panel which is slightly curved. A Motorola emblem is also present on the back panel which cannot be swapped out.

Display

The DROID Turbo 2 has better density that the Nexus 6 but its P-OLED screen which measures 5.4 inches is smaller than that of its competitor. It has resolution of 1440 x 2560 pixels and density of 540 pixels per inch. As for the Nexus 6 it has an AMOLED screen, measuring 5.96 inches with a resolution of 1440 x 2560 pixels and density of 493 pixels per inch. One major advantage that the DROID Turbo 2 has here is that its screen comes with ShatterShield technology and therefore does not break if it is accidentally dropped.

Specs

Here the Qualcomm Snapdragon 805 chipset on the Nexus 6 which is coupled with quad-core CPU and Adreno 420 GPU cannot keep up with the Qualcomm Snapdragon 810 chipset which is on its competitor, and it is coupled with an octa-core CPU and Adreno 430 GPU.

Memory

With no memory slot on the Nexus 6 external storage cannot be added, while the DROID Turbo 2 has a version that supports up to 2TB. When it comes to RAM each of these devices has 3 GB onboard.

Camera

The 21 megapixel camera on the DROID Turbo 2 ranks higher than the 13 megapixel camera of the Nexus 6 in the DxOMark Listing.
