Motorola Defy
$334.12
Released September, 2010
The Pros:MicroSD card slot for memory expansion (up to 32GB per card). Scratch and impact resistant Gorilla glass. 2GB internal storage - more than most Android phones.
The Cons:Only Android 2.1 at launch, when 2.2 is current - and Motorola lags behind other manufacturers when it comes to updating. Comes with Motoblur - unnecessary UI skin that slows down OS updates. Pretty slow TI OMAP processor at 800MHz.

The Defy is running Android 2.1 Eclair and has Motorola's own user interface (Motoroblur version 1.5). The hanset is setting itself apart from other smartphones through CrystalTalk Plus (filtering out background noise), DLNA compatibility, the preinstalled Swype keyboard, and its ruggedness. The latter includes an impact and scratch resistant Gorilla glass, a dust proof and water resistant casing, and IP67 durability spec compliance.
