    Anonymous, 03 Feb 2011I got my Motorola Defy 3 months ago & not that impresse... moreDEFY NOT WATER PROOF the Defy has never been declared by Motorola to be waterproof, also there is a huge difference in submerging this device in a glass of water or six inches of bathwater compared with having it meteres deep in poolwater.

    I would say play it safe and do not temp providence by deliberately taking this dashing Defy for a swim.

    I would challemge Motorola to actually take the bit between their teeth and produce a "water proof" and "shock proof" Motorola touch cell phone that works well and has a degree of charm...... ok boys is there intelligence enough within the great Motorola empire to envision sutch a product that will entice wow and move the cell phone loving population of this Earth

      Hy guys. I am in the process of buying a new smart phone and I can not decide yet. Few days ago I was between HTC Desire and Legend. I decided for Legend because it fits perfectly in the hand, very compact and also resistant due to the aluminum uni-body, you can use the phone with only one hand (I am using sms a lot and yahoo messenger). But know seeing Defy I am a confused because this one is water-scratch-shock-dust-resistant, bigger screen, but I do not know how fast you can type on it, if you can use it easy with only one hand with no mistakes in typing, and I am also wondering about the battery and the speakers problems that were been reported.
      If someone had both of them please give me an comparison review.
      What is the best to have?

              I got my Motorola Defy 3 months ago & not that impressed at all. I jumped in my pool and I noticed there was something in my pocket and it was my phone and it didn't really matter because it was waterproof. I put it away from the water and wen I went to use it the touch screen wasn't working. So much for waterproof!
