Design and Build
The Siemens SX1 features a distinctive design that immediately sets it apart. With dimensions of 109 x 56 x 19 mm, it strikes a balance between compactness and functionality. Weighing 116 grams, it is lightweight and easy to handle. The device houses a Mini-SIM and has a surprising keypad arrangement that wraps around the display, an aesthetic choice that captured attention but also polarised opinions due to its practicality. Its ice blue color adds an element of sophistication to its overall appearance, complemented by a TFD display that supports 65,000 colors. The 2.2-inch display offers a resolution of 176 x 220 pixels, which, at a density of approximately 128 ppi, was fairly standard for its time but pales in comparison to modern smartphones.
