No one was surprised that this morning’s Motorola announcement detailed its Milestone 2 handset intended for the European market, although the Motorola Defy was a little more out of left field – a rugged-ish handset meant to take all of life’s little knocks. We spent a bit of time with each handset and here are our many and varied thoughts. We’ll start with the Motorola Milestone 2 – but if the Defy is more your thing then just hop straight on over to page six.
So here it is, the Motorola Milestone 2 (known as the Droid 2 in the US). Looks familiar doesn’t it – design-wise not a great deal has changed since the heady days of the original Milestone. The top panel incorporates the funny little chin that we saw (and loathed) on the Motorola Milestone XT720, but aside from that, you could just be looking at the Milestone. Of course, the other difference is that the Milestone 2 has Motoblur onboard – that’s Moto’s own social networking amalgamator.
