While buying a smartphone users look for high-end  specs, camera performance, thinness, lightness, battery backup and other factors but durability is one area where we rarely put our attention into. There are also rarely few phones which are marketed as durable; having water and dust proofing with some new iteration of Gorilla Glass protection or with a huge ugly rugged case.

But we haven’t seen any significant improvement on durability of phone with these features. Recently, Motorola launched the Droid Turbo 2 with the Moto ShatterSheild, which has raised the bars for durability in smartphones. It has by far the most durable screen.  They also released a video where they demonstrated the drop test of Droid Turbo 2 along with couple of other phones.

The Screen has 5 layers designed to absorb shock and uses flexible AMOLED display:

  1. Exterior Protective Lensa protective layer with a proprietary hardcoat designed to guard against dents and abrasion.
  2. Interior Lenshighly transparent layer that provides a clear protective shield that won’t crack or shatter.
  3. Dual Touch Layerin the event of an impact that damages the primary touch-sensitive layer, a second layer takes over to maintain touchscreen performance.
  4. AMOLED Displayflexible display that absorbs shock and provides amazing picture quality.
  5. Aluminum Chassisa rigid aluminum chassis provides structural integrity and durability.

As mentioned above it has dual touch screen so in case one shatters another will be completely usable. Besides the protection, it packages great hardware specifications.
