The screen resolution ofthe Nexus 6 is 493ppi compared to Turbo's 565ppi. The Turbo also features a better camera compared to the 13MP snapper on the Nexus 6. Although costlier than the Turbo the Nexus is a good rival to the Turbo but not a clear winner.

Samsung Note 4:

The Note 4 clearly wins two sections having a large 5.7" screen and an octa-core processor. The two devices share the same amount of RAM and almost the same screen resolution.
The areas where the Moto Turbo stands out with it's phenomenal sturdy design and that 20MP snapper on it's back. Costlier than the Moto Turbo, the phone is not exactly worth the extra bucks.

Samsung Galaxy S5:

Samsung Galaxy S5:

The S5 and the Turbo come close in matters of screen size, quad-core processors and water resistiveness but are seperated by a lot many. The 565ppi display on the Moto Turbo is better than the 432ppi on the S5. The display resolution on the Turbo is also a lot better. The RAM on the S5 is only 2GB. Also, the Moto is better with it's optics.
Priced close to Rs. 30,000 the S5 might be a good buy for Samsuing fans but stands no chance against the mighty Moto Turbo.

Xperia Z3:

Xperia Z3:

The Sony Experia Z3 is a strong rival to the Moto Turbo. Moving hand in hand with the Turbo there's not much that seperates these phones. The Z3 doesn't have a replaceable battery while the Turbo lacks an expansion slot. The only significant difference in between the two is the screen resoulution. While the Moto Turbo has a 565ppi screen copmated to the 424ppi on the Z3.
Priced at Rs. 43,199 the Z3 is very strong rival and a decent competitor to the Moto Turbo.

iPhone 6:

iPhone 6:

Despite all the hype surrounding Apple's products, the iPhone 6 Apple's latest gadget is just no match for the Moto Tubo. Brutally defeating the iPhone 6 in every possible comparative section the Moto Turbo is the clear winner in this contest. Be it screen size, resolution, camera, RAM, processor, pixel density or even battery the iPhone 6 isn't worthy enough to be compared to the Moto Turbo.

Samsung Galaxy S6:

Samsung Galaxy S6:

Here is another cellular device moving neck to neck with the Moto Turbo. They are similar in almost all aspets. They both have brilliant screens and top notch features. The areas where the Moto Turbo loses out to the S6 is it's octacore processor and a 5MP front camera.
On the contrary the Moto Turbo wins in matters of it's rear camera and lesser pricing. The Galaxy S6 is a fresh launch at the MWC and will cost around Rs. 50,000 to Rs. 55,000 when launched in the Indian sub-continent.

Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge:

Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge:

The Galaxy Edge was also a recent launch at the MWC 2015. With it's dual curved screen this phone is more of a piece of exquisite art than a gadget. Sharing all the same specifications as the Samsung Galaxy S6 the S6 Edge is also a tough competitor to the Moto Turbo.
The only thing negative about this device is it's price. The smartphone is yet to be launched in the Indian sub-continent but it will cost well over Rs. 60,000.

HTC Desire Eye:

HTC Desire Eye:

Of the two, the HTC Desire Eye is the looker. The phone is very neatly crafted and is very beautiful to look at. While it shares a few similarities such as the 5.2" display, quad-core processors, and Android 4.4. The HTC Eye also has lesser RAM(2GB), a lower resolution screen(432ppi) and a 13MP primary snapper.
What seperates the HTC Eye from the Turbo is that awesome 13MP front camera with LED flash and it's seamless design.

HTC One M9:

HTC One M9:

At the end of this countdown we finally reach the most suitable and worthy competitor to the Moto Turbo. Both these devices have huge screens, stunning cameras, fast processors and equal amounts of RAM but what seperates them are those intricacies.
The One M9 has a 4MP front camera, an Octa-core processor and HTC's Sense 7.0 UI. Priced at Rs. 41,000 the HTC One M9 was a launch at the MWC 2015 and is Moto Turbo's worst nightmare.
