The screen measures 3.2 inches with Corning Gorilla Glass protection that will keep it secure from scratches. It has an enough pixel density of 180 ppi which can provide the quite bright display in outdoors and it contains good screen resolution of 320x480 pixels.

When it comes to hardware specs, Motorola Defy Mini comes packed with a below average 600 Mhz processor combined with the 512 MB of RAM and 512 MB of ROM. The device has microSD card slot for memory expansion with the maximum capacity of 32 GB. Towards the operating system, users will have to be satisfied with the Android OS 2.3.6 (Gingerbread) and unfortunately its not upgradable to Android 4.0 due to its low hardware specifications. But, there will be one useful feature called MotoSwitch UI 2.0 that will enable users to switch between personal and work modes along with the LED alerts or charge notifications.

For the budget-friendly phone, the 3 megapixels camera can be considered as the reasonable match.

At the front side, theres a 0.3 megapixels secondary camera for video-calling necessity.

The benefits of this handset are the really compact measurement, waterproof/dustproof resistant design, scratch-resistant screen and also the useful MotoSwitch UI. The drawbacks of this device are the low processor, minimal built in storage, it isnt upgradable to recent Android OS and it sports the below average camera specifications. But overall, the phone is adequate for you especially if you are a clumsy smartphone owner and looking for the low-priced Android handset.
