Defy XT’s price should be 12-13k…
U can get a dual core Xperia U for 16k….
Knowing motorola i don’t think they would upgrade these to ICS.
they will not
Is Motorola releasing RAZR MAXX in India or not ? If yes, approx when ?
end of june
What is the difference between DEFY plus and DEFY XT??
Good question.
These product at this price point is fail strategy for goo.mola
Defy Mini got same processor as Explorer. So at least it is not slow like the rest of the budget android gang. now comes the price. 11k is a no go. 9k is what it should ask.
Good hardware but simple features…..
Acer Iconia Tab A110 tablet comes with a 7-inch display with a resolution of 1,280 x 800 pixels. latest gen Nvidia Tegra 3 quad-core chipset,1 GB of RAM, microSD card slot and most likely a 5 megapixel camera with full HD video recording support..
And do you know whats the price..??
just for 200 us dollar..Then whats wrong with these guys..??
17k for this crap…???
Never….
Motorola customer service is pathetic. I purchased defy 1 year back and feel that I have wasted my 15K bucks on Motorola product, customer care dont bother at all….They are not good at updating the softwares also. Sony is updating its mid range phones also to ICS and Motorola did not bother even to update from Froyo to GB..
