You would be hard-pressed find many phones that look relatively stylish, are thin and lightweight enough to hold comfortably on your pocket, and will hang around underwater for ten minutes. That’s why, we suppose, the Motorola Defy became popular worldwide; it’s difficult to construct a tool to be a tank without looking like one, and it’s much more tough to do it right. Naturally, in case you have an amazing thing going, it’s ideal to enhance upon that model. The Motorola Defy+ aims to do exactly that — keep the shape factor, Gorilla Glass and IP67 certification , but reinforce the inner components and throw in better firmware. The recent iteration — slated for a Q3 release — will house a single-core 1GHz TI OMAP 3620 , Android 2.3.4 with Moto’s latest UI skin (still curiously noted as MotoBlur ) on top, and a 1700mAh battery while the remainder of the specs remain kind of like its predecessor. No word on specific carrier availability was given, though HelloMoto aims to launch it in Asia, Latin America, and Europe inside the fall. Full press release are available after the break.
