The Motorola Defy is an Android-based smartphone by Motorola, distributed exclusively by T-Mobile USA in the US and Telstra in Australia. The phone has also been launched in France and the UK under various networks and in unlocked guise. The Defy is marketed as water-resistant, dust-resistant, impact- and scratch-resistant by merit of its IP67 rating and Gorilla Glass screen.^[1]
Features of the phone include Wi-Fi capability, 5-megapixel camera with LED flash, speakerphone, 800 MHz TI OMAP3630 processor, a 3.7" FWVGA LCD display. Lacking a physical keyboard, the phone instead provides the Swype virtual keyboard and an alternative multi-touch QWERTY keyboard.^[2] The Defy supports the full suite of Google services such as Google Docs for working on documents on the go.

[edit] Hardware

The CPU/GPU is listed on Motorola website as OMAP3610+PowerVR SGX530^[3], whereas according to TI's latest Technical Reference Manual^[4], OMAP3610 does not actually exist.
According to the said Manual, specifically from page 198 to 202, there are OMAP3611/3615/3621/3622/3630 running at various stock speed, and all of the variants have a built-in full speed PowerVR SGX530 GPU.
And since OMAP3611/3621/3622 only come in "CYN" package, which can't have bolt-on memory chip (Package on Package), OMAP3615 does not have any video processors (both IVR2.2 and DSP) at all, the only remaining candidates are the OMAP3630 variants. Between this, the stock speed and various report of driver recognizing it as OMAP3630-800^[5], it's quite safe to draw the conclusion that OMAP3630-800 is powering the Defy and Motorola gave the wrong spec as they did with Droid 2.
