Even though the Samsung Galaxy S6 and Motorola Droid Turbo were only released with a few months difference, the Samsung Galaxy S6 is incredibly lighter and thinner. Both devices in this review include Android OS, but the Samsung Galaxy S6 has newer 5.0 version while Motorola Droid Turbo has Android 4.4.4.

The Galaxy S6 counts with a bit faster processing unit than Motorola Droid Turbo, and although they both have 3 GB of RAM, the Galaxy S6 also has a better 650 megahertz graphics processor, 4 more processing cores (but slower) and a 64-bits CPU. Galaxy S6 counts with a bit better looking screen than Motorola Droid Turbo, because although it has a bit smaller screen, and they both have the same exact 2560 x 1440 resolution, the Galaxy S6 also counts with a bit more pixels per screen inch.

The Galaxy S6 captures a bit better photos and videos than Motorola Droid Turbo, because although it has a way worse 16 mega pixels resolution camera and a worse (4K) video quality, it also counts with a larger aperture to take better captures and video in poorly lited situations.

If you want to save some money, you can get Motorola Droid Turbo, letting go a few specs and features, but you will get the most with your money.
