Anyway, Motorola has recently announced a new Smartphone that would be as rugged as the lifestyle you chose to live, I am talking to you, “Mr. Adventure Boy.” Motorola DEFY+ is the next additions in the DEFY family of Smartphones, it is IP67 certified and would work fine with spills of water and mud on it.
