Design and Build
The Bird S198 sports a compact and lightweight design, fitting comfortably in the palm of your hand with dimensions of 104.3 x 42.6 x 15 mm and a weight of just 73 grams. Despite the era's tendency towards bulkier phones, Bird managed to produce a sleek and easily portable device. The phone was designed to support a Mini-SIM, a standard at the time, and its simple form factor reflected its straightforward functionality. Available in four colors—black, white, green, and red—the Bird S198 aimed to cater to a range of personal tastes.
