Motorola is on a roll this year, as the company has already released three stunning devices, namely the Moto X Style, Moto X Play and Moto G 2015. Thanks to the leaks and speculations, the upcoming “Motorola Droid Turbo 2” also has been making waves online for some time now, with some reports pointing out that the international “Moto X Force” smartphone will be rebranded as the Turbo 2 in the U.S.

According to the latest report, the Motorola Droid Turbo 2 release date has been set for October. The original Turbo was also released in the same October timeframe last year. Like the predecessor, the Turbo 2 will also be exclusive to Verizon Wireless, Phone Arena reported. Meanwhile, the credible tipster @upleaks has uploaded the first render of the device via Twitter.

Speaking of design, the upcoming Turbo successor is believed to be bigger than the original Droid Turbo. The alleged Motorola Droid Turbo 2 specifications include a 5.4-inch display, packed with Quad HD screen resolution. On the other hand, the original version comes with a 5.2-inch display, however, the resolution is same as the rumored successor.

Under the hood, the Droid Turbo 2 will apparently come powered by an octa-core (Qualcomm Snapdragon 810) processor and backed by 3 GB of RAM. The device is expected to sport a 21-megapixel rear-facing camera unit, similar to the Sony Xperia series.

When it comes to memory specification, the Motorola Droid Turbo 2 is believed to come equipped with 32 GB or 64 GB of built-in storage space. However, there is no information available on the microSD card part. Similar to the successor, this device is also likely to come with a powerful battery capacity of 3,760 mAh to keep the lights on for a longer period of time.

The Moto X Force variant, on the other hand, will apparently be made available starting December in Europe and China. However, the full list of availability is unknown at this point. As far as the Moto X Force price goes, the device will reportedly cost about $620.
