Motorola DEFY PRO

The Motorola DEFY PRO , descendant of the Motorola DEFY+, looks like it met an old drunkard and depressed Blackberry at a bar and had a baby. The Canadian branch of Motorola Mobility will launch this Android smartphone with full QWERTY keyboard exclusively at Rogers this summer. Meant to take a beating, it’s IP67 certified for resistance against scratches, spills and dust. Running Android 2.3 (Gingerbread), it has access to the Google Play Store apps; although I’m not sure how enjoyable they will be or whether many will be supported because of the tiny 2.7-inch screen. The Motorola DEFY PRO has a rear 5 megapixel and front VGA quality camera for video calling.

It’s like stepping back in time. Is there even a market for this nowadays?

  I totally agree, maybe for ex-Blackberry folks who need a bridge off a sinking ship to Android.
  
  I remember a few years ago when my wife CHOSE the Motorola Charm, over my best recommendation, because it was little & cute, plus had convenient keyboard. That soon became frustrating as many apps were not supported due to the odd and tiny screen size.

  Of course there is. I think this is the future, now the novelty of having mini tablet wannabes in your pocket has worn off.
