Motorola Defy

The Defy is another Blurred Android phone from Motorola, but this one is different. Designed to be tough as nails, the Defy conforms to IP67 standards - in other words, it's waterproof (submersion up to one metre) and dustproof (no dust-under-the-screen issues here).



The tough phone market is perhaps one that hasn't been addressed when it comes to cutting edge smartphones - after all, we all know someone (if not yourself) that has accidentally broken a phone, so maybe the route Motorola is taking here with the Defy is one worth exploiting.

This is one of the few heavy-duty phones out there that is aimed at the general consumer, and that robustness is also the feature that really sets it apart from an already crowded market of Android phones. But is it enough to make it a worthwhile purchase? Read the full review to find out.
