Dropping your phone:
- Do: Use your phone up to a height of 1.8 meters – it’s drop proof within this height range.
- Don’t: Throw it with force, or drop from above the 1.8 meter range – it’s durable, but not indestructible.
Waterproofing:
- Do: Use your phone in damp and wet conditions when the SIM tray is fully inserted. It can withstand a depth of 1.5 meters, for up to 35 minutes. The display supports use with wet fingers.
- Don’t: Attempt to use it for longer than 35 minutes in 1.5 meters depth or beyond a 1.5 meter depth.
Dustproof and scratchproof:
- Do: Use your phone in dirty, dusty environments when the SIM tray is fully inserted. The motorola defy is certified IP68, an industry standard measure for durability.
Extreme temperatures:
- Do: Use your phone within the operational temperature range of -25º C to + 55º C. It can also handle extreme changes in temperature: shifting between cold and hot, or vice versa very quickly.
- Don’t: Use it outside the range of 0º C to + 45º C without the use of protective gloves. Don’t store or transport your phone in temperatures below -20° C or above 60° C.
