Design and Build
The i-mate JAQ3 has a distinctive, robust build with dimensions of 126 x 67.5 x 14.5 mm and a weight of 160 grams. This weight and size give it a substantial feel, often associated with the sturdiness expected from professional devices in the mid-2000s. Its design is dominated by a full QWERTY keyboard, which is a key feature for users focused on emailing and typing tasks without relying on the touchscreen for text input. Given its 2.5-inch display, the keyboard was essential for serious text input, making it a practical choice for the corporate users it targeted.
