Motorola Mobility Brings Style and Strength to Italy with Motorola DEFY™ MINI

Water, dust, scratches…this smartphone can take whatever your adventurous life dishes out. At a price you can’t beat either

Italy, say hello to the smartphone that defies expectations. Dust-proof, water-resistant and with a scratch-resistant Corning® Gorilla® Glass display, the new Motorola DEFY™ MINI by Motorola Mobility Italia is strong enough to keep up with you and your wildest adventures. And all for a price that won’t break the bank. Motorola DEFY MINI will be available from March.

The phone’s crystal-clear, 3.2-inch touchscreen display is great for email, texting and browsing the Web. And its long battery life means you can have this phone on and by your side no matter where the day (or night) takes you.

Motorola DEFY MINI keeps you connected – with the people you miss most and the places you’re going.

Snap photos of your various escapades with the phone’s 3-megapixel camera, and share all the fun you’re having with friends immediately using its pre-loaded social networking apps. You can also take advantage of Motorola DEFY MINI’s front-facing VGA camera to video chat1 with friends while you’re on the train, bus or just relaxing at home.

Plus, if you’re on the move, the phone’s GPS navigation will always keep you pointed in the right direction and make sure you get where you’re going.

With MotoSwitch, Motorola DEFY MINI can learn which songs you love, who you talk to most and which apps you get the most mileage out of. And all of this info is collected and kept front and center for you to access. Which means you’ll be so organized you’ll have loads of extra time on your hands.

But don’t worry… your boredom won’t last long. Since Motorola DEFY MINI is an Android™ -powered smartphone, you’ll have immediate access to thousands of games, apps, music, books and movies available in Android Market™.

“Motorola DEFY MINI is just the right mix of style, value, performance and toughness,” said Paolo Prearo, general manager at Motorola Mobility Italy. “It can stand up to whatever your busy life throws at you, keep you connected and organized, and capture and share your once-in-a-lifetime adventures – all with resilience and style.”
