The Motorola Defy is an odd one. It features a big 3.7″ toughened screen that displays everything at a high 480×854 resolution, it’s water and dust proof, plus there’s a decent 800MHz processor in the case – yet it’s always sold at mid-range prices.
Amazon UK is currently selling the Defy for £251.99 including delivery, meaning you can get a heck of a lot of mobile phone for a decent price.
Shame about Motoblur, but it’s pretty easy to deactivate most of Motorola’s weird widgets and return the phone’s Android 2.1 OS to a clean state. Also, according to Motorola’s OS updates page, the European spec Defy will be getting an Android 2.2 update in the next month or two.

A lot of complaints about the earpiece failing over on the Amazon reviews.
