Motorola DEFY Pro heads to Brazil, offers tough and tactile Android action

Motorola DEFY Pro heads to Brazil, tough and tactile Android action

You got to give it to Motorola, it's pretty specific with its handset releases. Today's announcement? It's the DEFY Pro doing the Samba towards Brazil. The "lifeproof" phone is designed to battle the elements (water, dust and carnival spirit,) and is the first touchscreen / QWERTY Android handset from the firm. There's 2.7-inches of Gorilla Glassed screen to poke at, an SD card slot to upgrade the 2GB onboard memory (upto 32GB) plus GPS and WiFi (so you can find your way home with the morning after). How much for this party of a phone? We don't know just yet, but the fun starts on July 15th, when it becomes available.

Update: We're not sure exactly why Motorola makes the claim in its press release that this is the first Android smartphone with both a touchscreen and full QWERTY keyboard, considering the company has released the CLIQ, CLIQ 2, Admiral, XPRT, Backflip, Flipside, Flipout, Pro / Droid Pro, Pro+, Titanium, Fire, Droids 1-4 / Milestone series, Spice, DEXT, Charm and plenty more.

Update 2: Motorola reached out to us with some clarification:

The release denotes that the DEFY Pro is our first life-proof device to feature both a QWERTY and touchscreen. Motorola's life-proof devices are water resistant, scratch resistant and dust proof, ready to handle life's daily challenges, indoors and out. Admiral and Titanium have similar features but are categorized slightly differently since they are iDEN-based products and have different mil-spec certification.
