This smartphone fits easily into your pocket, but because of its width, it is inconvenient to hold with one hand unless, of course, you have a palm more than nine centimeters wide, but despite this it is perfectly balanced. The back side is covered with special material that prevents the device from slipping in your hand.

Under the touch screen is a qwerty keyboard with 29 buttons, 27 of which are reserved for the letters of the English alphabet. At first, the keyboard may seem a little uncomfortable, but you quickly get used to it, because it has a good grip, you can even type the text with eyes closed and you almost never go wrong. When printing text, word hints appear and the word can be “reset” on the screen, which significantly increases the printing speed. Also, the system itself adapts to the style of printing and when you click on the first letter, it already suggests a word that will most likely be used.
