Motorola Moto X Force's shatterproof display survives even when dropped from over 900 feet

By AllTechAdvisor

The recently announced Motorola Moto Droid Turbo 2 (aka Moto X Force), which is claimed to have the world's first shatterproof display, was put to a bit bizarre drop test by a team at UnlockRiver.com. While drop tests are usually performed on phones to test their durability and strength, and/or to verify the company's claims, the way the UnlockRiver.com team conducted a drop test on the Moto Droid Turbo 2 was a little eccentric.

The team attached the phone to an aerial drone and let it drop from a height over 900 feet. To our surprise, not only the phone's display survived the test, but the phone was also functioning. There was, however, some damage to the phone's upper-left side, but it remained responsive to touch inputs even after the drop test.

In an exclusive interview with Live, Motorola India head Amit Boni revealed that the the Moto X Force will soon be introduced in India in January.

The name "Droid Turbo 2" is exclusive to the US and the same phone will be introduced as the Moto X Force in India and other countries, he said.

The display on the phone has been made using Motorola's new shatterproof display technology Moto ShatterShield which is said to be an integrated system consisting of five layers designed from materials that absorb shock from impact and are guaranteed not to shatter.
