The Official 'I just got my Droid Turbo 2' Thread!

First impressions after day 1:

Speaker is quite a bit louder then Turbo.
Some reviews say the colors don't pop as much as say, the S6. Really? Screen is pretty damn gorgeous if you ask me.
Camera seems quite a bit nicer then the Turbo, although I am pretty sure the camera on my T1 was not working 100%. Even at a full zoom, I took some really nice shots yesterday.
It does NOT like my Qi charger when in portrait. Must be landscape. I can deal with that.
All my favorite shortcuts are there. (Twist to cam etc) Plus a new one: lift to Ask Google? Can't really get that to work.

I am also pretty surprised by the fact that Google tried so hard to get rid of SD cards in Android but as soon as you insert a card it creates folders like:
Google Magazines, Google Quicksearch, Google Videos, Google Apps.docs.
They are certainly embracing others using SD cards now. I was even prompted at one point: Would you like to move all your media (pics, music, videos) to your card?
(Wth is com.bellyflop.android?!?!)
Moto Voice keeps firing in my pocket. Could be my launch phrase.

Overall very pleased. For me, as I said I think my Turbo camera was bad, it was certainly a worthwhile upgrade (+free). 64GB + 64GB card + free redesign +shatterproof + camera = Ima have this phone a VERY long time.

Google voice in pocket is because if that new Lift For Google Voice setting in the new Moto app. If you turn that Off, OK Google will probably stop opening on your pocket.
 
Google Spotlight Stories "Not compatible".... really? I'm never going to get to see that live action one. (It would never finish DL'ing on my T1)
 
It's not compatible with note 5 either. It was with my Note 3. Update on my pending delivery for my T2... Finally has gotten past the "clearance delay." I finally did a support chat with moto to see if they could get it moving. Clearance delay was lifted late morning and expected delivery is tomorrow. Yay! I was beginning to worry that I was on a terror watch list.

What is a clearance delay? Is this phone shipped from China or from a US distribution center?
 
Customs checking the container. They are being shipped from china.
Now I get it.. Seems everything shipped from China is getting hung up in Customs.
I'm waiting for a replacement backup camera for my pickup that is stuck in customs for 3 days now..
 
It looks like all the newer Moto phones ship from Shenzhen, China. Not sure why mine breezed right through customs and then my wife's was hung up for about 24 hours. At least these customs delays seem to be pretty short lived for most folks.

Good deal. Did you customize it at all?
