The Motorola Defy, which is a kind of “ruggedised” and durable Android phone that’s seemingly being pitched at the ultra-clumsy smartphone user, has been put through its paces by retailer Expansys.
They dropped it on the floor. And put it in a glass of water. And did a video of it. It’s an amazing piece of cinéma vérité.
And yes, it worked after. If you’re now won over and like the idea of a phone that has a couple of very clever physical party tricks, the Motorola Defy will soon be ready for ordering on Expansys. Check out the pre-order page here for tech specs and the like.
Motorola’s latest flagship dual-core Android monster is a massive, original powerhouse, that’s a big improvement on previous MOTOBLUR mobiles – but still isn’t a total winner.
A slim and glamorous phone from Sony Ericsson, with the sharpest display around. It’s no powerhouse and the screen’s not the biggest out there, but we don’t mind. Because it’s cute.
LG’s first glasses-free 3D phone is a heavy, fat monster, with a clever 3D effect that works rather well. As a smartphone, though, it’s heavy and underwhelming.
A very shiny thing from Sony Ericsson, with a 3.7″ screen and Android 2.3.3 inside. But is it exciting enough to win fans in today’s spec-obsessed market? Can man live on one core alone?
INQ’s Android phone is an interesting “boutique” piece of hardware, packed with unique interface customisations that go far beyond the headline Facebook integration. We like it a lot.
