@ P800 users

Do you think that P800 size and weight is manageable (considering it is a mobile phone). I am considering switching from t68i to P800 and the only thing stopping me is that it looks huge!!

I also have a T68i and a P800 and the P800 isnt that much bigger. It fits nicely in my pocket and doesn't feel too heavy. Operating it "sideways" can draw some funny looks though

It looks bigger than it is. There is no way the size can be explained, you need to in to a shop and feel it yourself.

It does feel a lot smaller than it looks - especially without the keypad...

It even (and this is very subjective, but most of my mates agree) feels smaller than the Nokia 7650 - even though they are within a millimeter of each other in most measurements!

Do this! You will never regret it. It's not just a phone, it's everything!

@eudiam: It is not ONLY a mobile phone. If you think it is you are missing the point.

I love the size! Fits perfect in my hand and very user friendly. Feels good holding it to my ear...other phones are two small and odd to hold. As for the weight it could be a little lighter.

Well it is a bit huge but on the other hand buying anything else would be like returning back to the stone age.

Of course it would be pointless to compare a P800 to a nokia 7650 - 3650...

The "who`s got the smallest phone" game was played when phones were mainly "listening devices" now they have become "veiwing devices" so size is not the issue, p800 is THE RIGHT size.
(people don`t talk in pubs about how small their TV is do they) We have all been programed to think small is best but now i pick up a t68 & find the screen frustratingly small.
