Doesn't the turbo seem to have way too much bloat, or am I too picky? Lol I was also disappointed in how bright the screen gets when I looked at it at the Verizon store.... Thought with it's amazing screen specs it'd be blinding at its highest setting.

I haven't had any issue with the screen brightness?  On auto, you have to set your brightness to high first then hit the auto.  Most devices now operate the auto brightness with where you have the manual setting as the high end.

 

As for bloat, not really.  It's almost like the X in that respect.

I just figured it'd be brighter that's all. Did you get the ballistic nylon?

Yes, because that is the only one that you can get the 64Gb on

I was holding one of those. They feel extremely durable but make me nervous in the sense that it could fray or something. Nothing an otter box can't fix although that phone would be FAT with the addition of a defender case.

Mentions the N6 being in Sprint, AT&T, TMO and US Cell stores later in November, but not mention of Verizon. Speculation is that Verizon won't carry it in store but will activate devices bought through the Play Store.

Sure.  It's the same phone. Kellen on DL already stuck his VZW sim in his review unit and it worked perfectly.
