Display
The Sidekick 3 came with a 2.6-inch TFT display capable of showing 65K colors. With a resolution of 160 x 240 pixels, the display was not highly pixel-dense, around 111 ppi, which made images and text appear less crisp compared to modern smartphone displays. However, the size and clarity of the display were acceptable by the standards of mid-2000s mobile devices, especially for its primary purpose of messaging.
