Motorola Defy Mini announced: a compact ruggedized Gingerbread warrior

The Motorola Defy Mini is a very compact ruggedized handset running Gingerbread, but what makes it even more attractive is its affordable price tag. Motorola unveiled the Defy Mini with a 3.2-inch display, and the device is a tinier sibling of the original Motorola Defy.

The 3.2” screen is water and scratch-resistant, dust proof and comes with Gorilla Glass and a resolution of 320 x 480 pixels. On the back there’s a modest 3-megapixel camera with LED flash, while up front Motorola has included a VGA snapper for video calls.

Under the hood, the Defy Mini packs a 600MHz processor and 512MB of RAM. It also supports up to 32GB microSD cards, and comes with a very capable for the size, 1650mAh battery giving you the impressive 10 hours of talk time and 21 days on standby.

Sadly, this is another Gingerbread device and looking at its sheer specs it doesn’t look like it’s going to get updated to Ice Cream Sandwich. It is, though, coming soon - the Motorola Defy Mini’s release date is February in Europe, Latin America and China.
