Motorola India has teased the Moto X Force via its Official Twitter account. While the company hasn’t yet revealed the exact date of launch in India, it has tweeted that it’s ‘coming soon’. The teaser shows off the phone’s hyped 'shatterproof' screen as well as a few statistics related to cracked screens. The phone is already available in the US as the Droid Turbo 2, and it was earlier thought that the phone will be launched in India by late November, 2015.

Here are five things you should know about the Moto X Force.

Display
The phone comes with a 5.4-inch QHD AMOLED display, but Motorola’s claims of it being shatterproof is definitely its biggest feature. Dubbed ‘Shattershield’, the technology took Motorola three years to develop. The display consists of five layers to protect it from breaking in an event of a fall. It has a rigid aluminium core and a flexible AMOLED display. Beyond this, there is a dual-touch layer followed by inner and outer lens coverings.

Processor and memory
The phone is powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 810 SoC clocked at 2GHz, and Adreno 430 GPU. The device comes with 3GB of RAM and is available in 32GB and 64GB storage variants. Both variants come with a microSD card slot, which can expand storage by upto 2TB. It is not yet known if Motorola will launch both variants in India. The phone runs on Android Lollipop v5.1.1, and the company may roll out the Marshmallow update soon.

Battery
The Moto X Force comes with 3760mAh battery, which Motorola claims to be enough for 2 days of mixed use. The device also supports the company's TurboPower charging technology, and it is claimed to be able to power the Moto X Force for 13 hours in just 15 minutes. The Moto X Force also supports PMA and Qi wireless charging.

Camera
The camera setup of the Moto X Force is similar to the Moto X Style and Moto X Play. At the back of the device is a 21MP camera, with f/2,0 aperture, phase detection auto-focus (PDAF) and dual-LED flash. In the front is a 5MP camera with a wide-angle lens along with a flash, and 1.4um pixel size for better photography in low light conditions.

Miscellaneous 
The Moto X Force also comes with a water-resistant  nano-coating technology to protect against accidental spills and light rain. It also supports 4G LTE, NFC, and Bluetooth 4.1 LE. The device comes with front-facing loud speakers and five mics with active noise cancellation support.
