Motorola Moto X Force

Yes, and no. Hardware-wise, they are almost identical - same battery, same size, same shattershield screen and display, same Motorola-customizations (not much compared with stock Nexus.) Where they differ:
- The Turbo 2 is Verizon-proprietary, with CDMA radio support that the X Force lacks
- I believe that the LTE band support is a little different, with the T2 supporting Verizon's bands only
- The T2 has a lot of pre-installed bloatware and Verizon-specific apps and services that the X Force lacks
- Both are GSM-unlocked

I have the Turbo 2 and have never seen the Moto X Force.
There is a comparsion at ...
http://www.gsmarena.com/compare.php3?idPhone1=7713&idPhone3=0&sSearch2=&idPhone2=7555
... I have no way to validate it.,
The summary says the Moto X Force is dual SIM. The Turbo 2 for sure is not.
There is no Verizon logo on the shattershield replaceable front lens.
For me the preinstalled software is a non issue. I use Nova Launcher Prime and have a drawer in my app drawer where I move apps that are preinstalled that I don't want to see. I visit that drawer abut once a year. (Nova Launcher Prime allows you to completely hide them if you prefer.)

While dual-SIM Moto X Force phones are sold, the vast majority are single, nano-SIM, and the UK version is definitely single SIM (see the link in my post above, on the specifications page.) If you read the GSMarena.com link closely, you'll see it says that the X Force has "Single SIM (Nano-SIM) or Dual SIM (Nano-SIM, dual stand-by)".
So, only some X Force phones are dual-SIM, and not in the UK.
As I understand it, dual SIM phones are most likely to be found in developing countries (e.g., India) rather than developed ones, like the UK.
As stated ... I have never even seen the Moto X Force. I also don't know what environment the device I have never seen will operate in for you.
Battery life for the Turbo 2 is very good but not quite as good as the Turbo.
