Motorola Moto G Turbo Edition Unboxing, Quick Review, First Impressions [Video]
Question- How is Design and Build Quality? Answer- The new Moto G Turbo Edition looks almost the same like the Moto G (3rd Gen), but this one feels a little heavy and premium and the typical Motorola frame is made out of plastic. On the front it has a Gorilla Glass 3 panel protecting the 5 inch display and the earpiece is on the top and a loudspeaker below like Motorola does in all its phones. At the back is a textured plastic cover that lets you grip the smartphone very easily, the texture saves the phone from slipping out of your hands. The best part is that this phone is dust and water resistant with an IP67 certification. We are satisfied with the build quality but design has nothing new to wow the users.
