The complete first thing I noticed when I selected this phone up was how heavy it felt. At 5.57oz, it isn’t excessively heavy (a Nexus One is 4.59oz), but it has just sufficient heft. Coupled with a very solid feel, the phone gives the feeling of having excellent build class. There is minimal play between the keyboard and the screen, and the physical buttons have just the right level of struggle.
The keyboard slides out efficiently and stays in place with no shifting. The keys are big enough and light up properly, but I noticed that they are just a hint stiffer than I would like.
The screen looks better than the Cliq and akin to the Nexus One. Colors on it are satisfactorily vibrant, and its contrast is good as well. Given that the display is only 3.2" slantwise, the 480×800 resolution makes it look reasonably dense. I took it outside in the straight sun and found that it was practical but not quite good sufficient to read on.
The main machine buttons, "home," "menu," "back," and "search," in that order, are capacitive. I had no troubles with them at all. Below those is a rocker button, the left side of which opens the dialer app, while the right one functions as the power button.
