The latest rugged smartphone out of the Motorola camp is of course the Motorola Defy which resists dust and drops and stuff but although the Android packing smartphone can withstand the rigours of everyday life it doesn’t mean things can’t go wrong with it.
According to an article over on the Boy Genius Report by Zach Epstein, and by way of the Motorola Support Forums, it appears that the Motorola Defy is experiencing some kind of issue with its speakers and apparently the issue isn’t just confined to a few users but rather is a worldwide problem as users are reporting the issue in the UK, Germany, Switzerland, Brazil and more.
Apparently the issue with the Motorola Defy is to do with the ear speaker failing to work after just a few days of purchase although using the handset’s loudspeaker seem to be fine, however the ear speaker remains unusable, and apparently some owners have resorted to digging into the smartphones innards to try and solve the issue which isn’t recommended.
Unfortunately Motorola hasn’t come up with any official announcement confirming or denying the problem with the Motorola Defy, but apparently affected handsets will be repaired or replaced under the device’s warrany.
SO let’s hear from anyone who owns a Motorola Defy, are you experiencing this ear speaker issue with our device, and if so have you managed to solve he problem without having to send the device back to be repaired or replaced?
