Motorola Defy 2021 unveiled: Smartphones don’t get any tougher than this
Motorola Defy is made to be one tough phone out of the box. That means it is quite ready to brave harsher condition without having to install third party protection such as tough cases. The Motorola Defy 2021 boasts a rugged exterior from the get go, in partnership with Bullit Group, which is known for their rugged phone lineup from other brands.
The durable phone is definitely a middle-of-the-road device with mid-tier specs powering its internals. In fact, specs wise, this has the same DNA as that of Motorola G9 Play, only with much tougher exterior. Both utilized a Snapdragon 662 octa-core processor along with 4GB of RAM.
As a tougher-than-your-average-smartphone, its credential begins with a Corning Gorilla’s Glass Victus. It is also able to withstand drops of up to 1.8 meters with either corners and sides of the phone taking the impact. There is also an IP68 water and dust resistance rating so it can be soaked in the water of up to 1.5 meters for 35 minutes. The Motorola Defy can also function under these extremes: -25°C to 55°C temperature range.
The design of the phone has a few quirks, but understandable to say the least. First off, the bezels are quite noticeable but sensible for a tough phone. Three of its corners are rounded while the one at the bottom is squared in order to make room for a lanyard opening. The chassis is made with non-slip soft plastic which a good choice for this rugged device.
The main camera at the back is a triple shooter– a 48MP main camera, a 2MP macro camera and a 2MP depth sensor. Underneath the camera module is a physical fingerprint scanner. The front selfie camera is an 8MP sensor housed inside a teardrop notch that makes it look dated.
The Motorola Defy 2021 is slated to be released for the European market at the end of June 2021 with price at around $390 or £279.
