Arrow Phones Size Comparison!

Hey everyone. About a year ago I made this Vintage Display Cabinet for comparing Phones Sizes.

It all started when I wanted to get the Streak. And then the Galaxy TAB. But since dual cores were "around" the corner I waited. So I finally got the Note also. Well it's on its way to be specific.

A lot of my friends use it and almost all liked it.

And I try to keep it updated. Smaller than 3.5" display phones not included. I included mostly the most popular phones with the most popular size screens.

Any additions that you want me to include please request them and I will seriously consider them.

It's the actual measurements of the phones. So view it in "actual size". Some have +1mm width difference. Very minor/unnoticeable tho so I did not bother to fix it. Might do it in the future if requested.

I hope you like it. And please you are all welcome to share your thoughts about it.

Enjoy..!

Update: A lot have been comparing the Note's screen to the SGS 2. Most comparisons were either done with SGS2 on top of the Note or side by side.

But when the SGS 2 is on top of it, you can't obviously look throught and compare them unless you have X-RAY vision.

The below is the ACTUAL measurements of the Note compared to "smaller" screens! Enjoy:


I hold all © of all my uploads in this thread. Thank you.

TIP: Next project... It will be in 3D.

P.S: And on a side note to everyone. I have been around XDA since 2005/6 when bought my QTek 9000 and HTC TyTn.
I believe I was registered with another name but I could be wrong since I searched the member posts with a couple of names I used to use with nothing so I might have just been lurking for my phones back and since then..
Did you find my thread/post useful? A "Thanks" is all I need. Nothing more, Nothing less..

That is very nice - good work.

You might consider including the mytouch 4g.
I assume it's popular since t-mobile pushed it so hard.

You might also consider labeling the phones - I don't know what some of them are.

I'm very glad you liked it. And I appreciate your suggestions and are noted.

You are correct about the naming. Probably had some reason for not doing it when I made it(can't remember now) but probably because It wouldn't look as good.

But then again it's purpose is so people can compare them. I will give this some thought. Suggestions are more than welcomed.

Also about myTouch 4G is about the same size of the SGS1 but 1cm(0.4") narrower. I will probably get it in.

I forgot to clarify that I did not added the phones based only on popularity but mostly based on popular body/screen size. But then again, not everyone knows every phone's dimensions.

Thank you for your input.

Yeah... it's the Streak. It had a bit too much real estate around the screen for my liking.

Useful comparison pic. Thanks Op.

Note is much lighter and feels thinner.
Hence For one handed operating, note is much easier.

Nameplates below each device would look cool, actually, since your picture is like a phone museum display.

You kinda need screen sizes if you include the galaxy tab since there are like 20 of them now, and I think they all look the same. Perhaps under the phone name?
