Design and Build
The NEC N344i sports a compact and lightweight design, weighing just 95 grams, with dimensions measuring 109 x 47 x 11.9 mm. These measurements made it quite slim by 2005 standards, fitting comfortably in the pocket. The phone's aesthetics are characterized by a simple, black finish, which was a popular choice for many devices of that era. Despite its compact size, the phone features a mini-SIM card slot, typical of mobile phones at the time.
