Though I agreed it has very slim chance to reach us, but FYI this is no Droid line, but Moto Maxx. We used to have similar situation where Droid spec phones sold here ( in Malaysia ) as another name ( ie RAZR MAXX ), but given recent Motorola phones not vastly available here, this Moto Maxx that's targeted Latin America might not reach here.

That's bcs Motorola was still here in that particular year

It has been like that for as long as I know. The furthest the droid lineup went is India.

Unless Lenovo tries to turn things around but I don't see it that way. Guess they're trying to work Moto the old way, why compete with their own brand in Asia....??

Bro, which droid lineups actly got passed thru American continents? hmm.gif

No I have different thinking this because of "Moto" Branding.

Moto X, Moto G, Moto E all make it to Brightstar Malaysia, even the Moto 360. If you ever notice, all Moto branding are for Market outside of US.

Not just us, even you do some research on Brightstar HongKong, they have the same products like us.

So put you high hope and faith in "Moto" Brand will come to Malaysia.

And we're talking abt Moto Maxx I believe, and it's a totally diff case. This Brighstar company gets their products from HK, or perhaps the UK. If they're not released to either these two countries, then there's no way that they will be able to get the products

And I'm not surprised if Moto X makes its way here. But give it 8 months

But I don't understand why Brighstar brings in Motorola products in HK when the official page is still there

Brazilian gov imposed some super hefty taxes for their electronic stuffs, so dont compare.

And yet most people here in MY, they complain when the govt wants to impose 6% GST, while the rate of poverty there in Brazil is almost 60%. Well, it shows that if you want great product, you gotta pay for it

Moto X vs. Droid Turbo: Which one's right for you?

user posted image
Some practical guidance on two of the year's most interesting phones -- based on weeks of living with them and comparing them side by side.


QUOTE
Two sibling phones. One is sleek and sophisticated -- beautiful to the eye and a treat to hold. The other is more industrial -- far less refined but super rugged and oozing with power. So which is the better device?

With Motorola's 2014 Moto X and Droid Turbo now on store shelves, that's the question many a smartphone shopper will soon be facing. The Moto X and Droid Turbo share lots of DNA and are incredibly similar -- yet at the same time, they're very different types of devices.

The real question, then, isn't which is better but rather which is right for you. And after living with both phones for a fair amount of time, I think I can help you sort that out.

Hey, what about the other stuff?!

Yeah, yeah -- I know: The Droid Turbo has a Quad HD display while the Moto X has a 1080p screen and the Turbo has a 2.7GHz quad-core Snapdragon 805 processor with 3GB of RAM while the X has a 2.5GHz quad-core Snapdragon 801 processor with 2GB of RAM. If specs alone excite you, by all means factor that into your decision.

For most of us, though, those numbers really don't matter. After living with both devices individually and then studying them closely side by side, I can tell you that there's no real discernible difference between the phones when it comes to performance or display quality. Higher numbers don't automatically equal a superior experience, and in real-world terms, these changes don't amount to much.
Putting it all together...

All right -- so which phone's right for you? If you still aren't sure, I'd say this:

• If you're committed to Verizon and need a durable phone and/or exceptional stamina -- and don't mind paying a bit more for it -- the Droid Turbo is a great choice to consider. It gives you a lot of the standout qualities of the Moto X in a more rugged body and with battery life that'll support even the most extreme usage habits.

• If you value specs above all else and want the most cutting-edge hardware regardless of its practical impact -- and are committed to Verizon -- go with the Droid Turbo. It's got what you want.

• If you just prefer the rugged and industrial vibe -- and (you guessed it) are okay with using Verizon -- get the Turbo. Easy enough, right?

If those conditions don't apply to you, I'd recommend the Moto X. From its physical form and design to its speaker, software, and button setup, it's generally just the nicer and more pleasant-to-use device -- not to mention the cheaper option and the more versatile phone in terms of carrier compatibility. True, its stamina isn't at the exceptionally high level of the Turbo's, but the majority of smartphone users also don't typically need battery life quite that strong.

It all comes down to your own priorities and what tradeoffs you're willing to make to get them. Think of it like this: The Droid Turbo is a specialty phone for folks who need extreme stamina and/or an extra-rugged device -- and are willing to sacrifice things like sleekness and design in exchange for those qualities. The Moto X is the more mainstream phone that strikes a balance to provide the best all-around experience for most people.

Our ever-expanding array of options can get a little overwhelming, but that's why I'm here to help. At the end of the day, choice is a wonderful thing -- and boy, oh boy, do we have a lot of it.


I'd pick Moto X any day if it had 3900 mAh

DROID Turbo Review

The Verdict

The DROID Turbo is a beast of a phone that has nothing but top tier specs at a surprisingly reasonable price. There are few phones that match this new Motorola smartphone on paper and in real world use. While the camera needs a software update soon to improve its speed and consistency, there are few things wrong with the Turbo. It feels premium, looks better than previous DROID phones, has excellent battery life, and performs flawlessly.

Motorola Droid Turbo review: Power robot

Final words

Motorola Droid Turbo is a complete package - a no-compromise Android powerhouse that is fit to accommodate even the most discerning power user. The smartphone blends high performance hardware, innovative materials, and stellar battery endurance into a compact, superbly built package.

Android flagships often rely on their specs to succeed and the Droid Turbo is as prepared as its gets. It is the best-equipped device that doesn't carry a phablet moniker - only larger beasts come close to its hardware chops.
Key review findings

- The materials used in the making of the device are superb and innovative
- At 565ppi, the 5.2" QHD display is the sharpest available at the moment on any smartphone
- Stock Android 4.4.4 KitKat is responsive and the fast-track Android update schedule is great
- The chipset and its performance are stellar
- Still camera performance is good; video capture is excellent
- Audio quality could be better
- Battery endurance is impressive, more than makes up for the thickness
- Motorola's Turbo Charger is a must-have for every smartphone
- Retail availability is way too limited (at least for the time being)

The performance of the Qualcomm Snapdragon 805 chipset is solid as expected. Motorola Droid Turbo is up to any task you throw at it.

The 5.2" QHD display is gorgeous and offers more pixels than you can shake a stick at. It offers good contrast, viewing angles, sunlight legibility, and punchy, if a tad inaccurate colors.

With 3,900mAh on tap, the Droid Turbo displayed good battery performance. The handset didn't top our chart, but it is the longest-lasting offering with QHD display at the moment.

Build quality has traditionally been a key feature of the Motorola Droid family and the Turbo is no exception. We really like the Ballistic Nylon option - there is nothing else on the market today like it. The improved DuPont Kevlar is also quite nice, as is the water repellency of the smartphone.

With 21 megapixels, dual-LED flash, and UHD video recording, the camera of the smartphone doesn't disappoint either. It isn't quite the best we have tested, but it isn't far off the top either - you will not be disappointed by the images and the videos you have captured with it.

Stock Android 4.4.4 KitKat is light on its feet and easy to customize. Motorola's additions are clever and unobtrusive. Verizon's extensive bloatware is manageable - you can disable most of the preloaded apps.

The lack of stereo speakers and a microSD card slot are what keep the Motorola Droid Turbo away from being absolutely perfect. The well-sorted front-facing mono speaker and the available 64GB option partially make up for the lack though.

Finding Your Phone With the New Motorola Keylink

user posted image

Here’s an old situation: you haven’t gone very far but you know you’re missing something. You check your pockets, maybe rifle through your bag. Where did your phone go?

Here’s a new solution: Motorola Keylink.

Keylink is a small device that you attach to your keychain. Using the Motorola Connect app on your phone, you can connect your keys to your phone in case either tends to wander off. * If your phone decides to play hide and seek with you, you can press a button on Keylink to make it ring up to 100 feet away. Or if you keys get a similar idea, you can use the Motorola Connect App to make Keylink ring.

The great thing is Keylink is compatible with Android and iOS devices. Simply download the Motorola Connect app from the Google Play Store or the Apple App Store today to get started.

If you own Moto X (2nd gen.), Droid Turbo or a phone running Android 5.0, Lollipop, you can use your trusted device settings to enable the added ability to keep your phone unlocked when your keys are nearby. This way you don’t have to enter your password to use it. Just enable trusted devices by going into settings and then security.

The battery lasts upwards of a year and you can replace it with a coin cell battery found in any local drug or convenience store.

You can purchase one for $24.99 at Motorola.com and T-Mobile starting today.
