  • Pros
    waterproof
  • Cons
    crappy camera

I fell in the creek the first day I had it, and it never missed a beat! Otherwise the reception is worse than my old Telstra tough t90 despite the blue tick. Camera is pretty poor compared to an iPhone. Screen is impossible to read in full sunlight, making it really difficult to do something as basic as answering calls. Pretty stupid for a TELEPHONE!

  • Pros
    screen durability & dust resistance no annoying dust behind the screen
  • Cons
    no opption for hard connection to external antenna, any conpetition with this option would get my money

Annoying dust inside phones is one of my biggest problems this seems to have been largely addressed on this phone however dropped calls and slow data speeds are the biggest annoyance, no service means no phone, no phone means no business, no business means no money to buy smart phones with. I feel like I'm on my own but a really would buy any smart phone with a hard connection to an external antenna.

  • Pros
    Awesome durability and surviving stuff
  • Cons
    unsure about android 4.0 (Ice Cream Sandwich)

This phone is a great little product from Motorola. it claims to be drop proof and i (accidentally)put it to the ultimate test- run over by a car! It survived without a scratch. in terms of software i dont know why people hate on Motoblur so much its actuley not that bad. it handles the os quite well with minimal lag. with me swapping to the defy + from Iphone it was well worth it!

  • Pros
    Defy
  • Cons
    ATRIX

I use the Moto Defy and the hardware device from Motorola is superb. However, most of my problems are with Android OS - Froyo. All things phone like call quality, speakerphone, screen are very satisfactory. BUT I do face issues with WiFi at times. Overall, I would give it a 3.5/5 = good . if you guys want some more info about motorola defy then you can approachhttp://www.motoask.com/motorol​a-defy-f42/
