 "The devices are housed in the very conventional monoblock-style form-factor – both of them are on the wider side, especially HTC S650 – the thumbboard and landscape QVGA display make for such dimensions. The S650 (115x63x14 mm, 130 g.) is pretty bulky, but there is a very interesting peculiarity to it – the shapes, design and location of controls lend an overall pared-down feel to Samsung i600, which seems much narrower. In practice, however, the dimensions of the i600 (113x59x11.8 mm, 99 g.) are not too much different from those of HTC, saving for the fact that it is noticeably thinner. Either of the smartphones readily slips into just about any pocket, the only impediment one might encounter is HTC S650’s weight, but while in a trousers pocket, it is not too much of a burden. Speaking of Samsung i600 and its size, comparing it to ordinary phones makes some sense, if we overlook the width." Read this nice comparative review here:
