Live Life Smarter

This information is then used to populate your home screens for quick and easy access – ensuring you’ll be so organized you’ll have loads of extra time on your hands.

But don’t worry… your boredom won’t last long. Since Motorola DEFY MINI is an Android™ powered smartphone, you’ll have immediate access to thousands of games, apps, music, books and movies available in the Android Market™.

Live Music

In celebration of Motorola DEFY MINI coming to the UK, Motorola has launched its ‘Winter Proof’ campaign which includes sponsorship of Snowbombing, the greatest show on snow, in Mayrhofen, Austria (April 9-14).

But rather than wait until April, Motorola and Snowbombing will be holding an exclusive UK event in March, called the Urban Mountain Disco. Twinned with the Arctic Disco in Mayrhofen, the UK event will see Maverick Sabre take to the stage, in an event hosted by Radio 1’s MistaJam, and provide a unique, once-in-a-lifetime, spirit-lifting party experience.

To learn how you could win a chance to attend this exclusive gig, UK residents should visit the Motorola Europe Facebook page and click on the Win with MOTOROLA DEFY link.

“Motorola DEFY MINI is just the right mix of style, value, performance and toughness and our sponsorship of Snowbombing presents a great opportunity to showcase this to our UK audience,” said Victoria McManus, UK marketing director, Motorola Mobility. “It can stand up to whatever your busy life throws your way – on the beach or on the slopes – you’ll always be connected, ready to share your once-in-a-lifetime adventures – all with resilience and style.”
