Love my Defy.
Seems no front camera yet, though.

Pretty low spec phone for a new release this.

Pretty low spec phone for a new release this.

Well, its not exactly a new release. Was released last year September. We getting it late here. For the price..it is not too bad though...RAM could have been a bit higer. Very disappointing that it wont be upgraded to ICS though. tsk tsk.

can you still put this in a glass of water?

That depth of water was never the problem; it was the shallow end of the pool that was ..entertaining. :erm: Also: TLTL*; the world has moved on from this spec, notably on screen size. *too little, too late

Well, except for where the unit has been ..enhanced

Seems like a nice mid range phone

 

[McCrazieGoalz]

So bland. No styling at all. The rubber cover in the copy pictured above actually makes it try to look better.

Gingerbread? Whats wrong with Ice Cream Sandwich (the phone is not good enough for it at R2,899)?

I will wait for the Nokias.

At the same price range I think I would rather go for a Xperia Ray if I had to.

Esp seeing that the Ray is getting ICS.

Meh, it's no RAZR. But then again considering the (SA) price it probably wasn't intended to be.

 

[cerebus]

Is there any news of in-contract pricing on this one from 8TA?

 

[Tsepz_GP]

Nice phone for those who just want a strong smartphone, shocked at its late arrival though.

 

[Nameite]

512 MB RAM, 1 GB ROM

2gig rom actually, 1.24G usuable

Anyways, this is just a Defy with a non-underclocked CPU, red lens, gingerbread, changed cover for make sure it takes no water damage this time.

If you have a defy, this isnt anything new.

An awesome phone nevertheless, I still love my defy

Any idea if these are available on a MTN contract? Been to two different stores and they have no idea what I'm talking about (apparently both stores don't do any Motorolas...)
