We started hearing murmurings of a Droid Turbo 2 device from Motorola way back in the early months of the summer, but now we have proof that this device is on the way. The Droid Turbo 2 will be rocking a 5.5" QHD display, Snapdragon 810, 3GB of Ram, 20MP rear facing camera, 5mp front camera, Turbo Charging, and Android 5.1.1.
Some of the build.prop files have leaked out clearly showing that this is indeed the Droid Turbo 2.

We have a flagship device, but with those specs this may be too little too late from Motorola. Maybe we are seeing Motorola make good on some sort of exclusivity deal they had with Verizon. Turbo sales last year were meek so who knows why Motorola has decided to go with a second version.
We should see this phone along side the new Droid MAXX 2 releasing later this month just in time for the Christmas season! The Maxx actually did pretty well last year. The Droid Turbo was released last year on 10/28 so the timing makes pretty good sense.
