The Maxx 2 is $384, and the Turbo 2 is $624 (32GB) and $720 (64GB).
Maybe it's just me, but I'm not real excited for either one.
For a few dollars more, the Moto X Pure Edition at $399 is probably the better choice over the Maxx 2, in terms of higher end specs. And the Turbo 2 (64GB) at $720 seems less interesting to me since the LG V10 will probably be around that price range.

Yes and ability to take your phone to any provider is worth a lot especially for resale value. So how did these guys compared to the old quark turbo max? I expect the prices on those to be dropping

The $10 price difference between the Moto X Pure and Droid Maxx 2 definitely makes the X Pure the more attractive device to me.
And the Turbo 2's big selling point is the shatterproof display, since it is P-OLED and has all those extra layers. But I'd be interested in seeing it had a drop comparison with the V10, since it has a dual layer Gorilla Glass 4 on it. But other than that, specs wise, the V10 is the only phones that I'd even consider going to from my Note 4 Dev Edition, as long as the V10 is rootable.

Sorry if I wasn't clear, I meant the moto turbo droid / known as Maxx overseas, came out a little bit after the Moto X?

Both phones look nice but not excited about the prices. It would be hard to pay $30 more for the phone payment. $20 would be my maximum and that's still not ideal to me.
