I'm making this thread to expose as much details about this phone as possible for everyone that's interested in it.

*Note*
I have a Motorola Defy and it's a great phone, with some unique features and some other awesome hidden features.

If there's anything else you know about it please comment below!
 
Is the Defy + the one that comes with the rotisserie spit?

(ou grappie, ek weet, sorry OckieMoogle :D)
 
I guess that is why they insist on calling the defy the MB525 in the South African market. The Defy+ will be the MB526.
 
Many XDA friends say its the same phone, except with a bigger battery, OCed to 1000, GB stock and better waterproofing (like better glue or something)

Can probably upgrade your own Defy Red lens for less than R200 to a defy+

Do you have the phone? Does it feel any diff to the Defy? I want to know real self-experiences
 
When will it be released in SA? or is it already released?
MTN has no plans to rlease in the near future and Vodacom hasn't even started negotiating with Motorola to bring it to SA
