Droid Turbo 2 is "the device that never breaks." Known to have survived drop tests, the phone has taken the Android community in awe. The most recent news about the device pointed out that a green line has plagued a number of the device in the US.
According to Android Authority, the appearance of a green, vertical line on the screen is caused by dropped devices. However, some users lamented that they have never dropped their Droid Turbo 2. Verizon and Motorola have not responded to the issue yet neither a fix has been released.
