Motorola Defy XT535 Review

Motorola’s Defy phones have been a success with those looking for a robust, water and dust-resistant Android handset. Until recently, that has been the only option in the market at its price. Motorola has now come up with a new variant called the Defy XT, which isn’t exactly a replacement for the Defy+ but more of an alternative if you didn’t fancy the design and look of the old one. The XT has the same IP67 durability certification as the old one and is very similar in terms of features as well. Let’s see if there are enough reasons to pick this over the existing Defy+. Design and Build The Defy XT535 has received some slight design tweaks and is now lighter at 115g and a bit slimmer as well at 11.9mm. The design also looks a lot more elegant as compared to the rugged look of the old phone, so this would appeal to a broader audience. The DEFY XT stands out especially when it comes to durability. It is IP67 certified, which means it’s very capable of following you underwater. Of course that certification means it’s water resistant only up to about 1 meter and for about 30 minutes, so no deep-sea diving, please. This also means it can keep dust at bay. Its rugged shell and Corning Gorilla Glass display ensure that your handset is safe from the elements, keeping your phone totally safe in this monsoon season.
