I'm not going to lie--I think buying any device running 2.3 at this point is a giant waste of money, comparable to buying a laptop with Windows XP on it. There is no reason. Nexus 4s are recently out of stock at $200, and the Nexus 5 will probably compete in that area too.

It's a shame that republic wireless is handing out 2.3 devices--that really should stop.



It seems like there is some backstory behind the phone and the versioning (this is the only phone currently offered until the Moto X next month, which has 4.2) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motorola_Defy#Manufacturer_crit...

Sorry you think it's a "giant waste of money." I need a phone and I'm now saving something like $40/month over my previous plan.
