Motorola Defy Announced, Coming to T-Mobile During the Holidays

It seems like Motorola has some big plans for the farewell season premiere of “The Oprah Winfrey Show.” Motorola has just announced the Motorola Defy which will be hitting T-Mobile just in time for the holiday season.

“DEFY is designed to handle everything that life throws your way,” said Bill Ogle chief marketing officer, Motorola Mobility, Inc. “With all the features consumers expect in a smartphone, DEFY packs Web browsing, entertainment and messaging capabilities as well as an exterior design that can withstand the stresses of everyday life.”

The Motorola Defy is dust proof and scratch and water resistant providing the latest in durability. We originally heard this device was coming to Europe in Q4, but it’s nice to know this rugged device will be hitting the hands of consumers in the US market as well.

Features of the Motorola Defy include:

  • Android 2.1
    • Motoblur skin
  • 3.7″ WVGA touchscreen display
  • DLNA support
  • 5MP camera
  • OMAP 3610 processor clocked at 800MHz
  • Adobe Flash lite

We’ll just have to get our hands on this device and test just how durable this bad boy really is. Full presser after the jump.
