Oooh, I used to have one as well and it was pretty indestructible!

If it has dual sim, I'm getting one!

I skipped Blackberries. Went from some forgettable Sony dumbphone to a Defy. And it was a good, good phone.

Had the first one (from Red Bull Mobile). Sure it was a thread from you that convinced me to get it.
Survived beer, beaches, music festivals and then it got stolen. Red Bull Mobile then gave me a sweet deal on a second one (at the RBM outlet in V&A Waterfront) on the day of Red Bull Flugtag.

Motorola Defy (2021) in for review​

Say hello to the Motorola Defy (2021), a return to a Moto line of phones from 2012.

The new Defy is built by UK-based rugged phone maker Bullitt Group and adheres to the MIL-SPEC 810H for enhanced drop resistance, broader operating temperature and the IP68 standard for water resistance and dust proofing.

Motorola claims the Defy (2021) can withstand a drop from up to 1.8 meters (if the phone lands on its back or sides) and will feel just as good at -25°C, as 55°C.

The rear has a textured plastic surface with a rubbery feel that is easy to grip.
