The main differentiating factor is that this phone has a slide-out keyboard in portrait orientation. That&#x27;s not for everyone, but it is something I miss greatly and could see myself picking based on. The review points out that an on-screen keyboard is bigger, but that&#x27;s not really the point - with an onscreen keyboard you can&#x27;t learn to type by feel, you always have to look at it. (On the other hand, the sliding&#x2F;Swype style for onscreen keyboards is pretty nice, and definitely narrows the gap between physical thumb keyboards and onscreen ones.)
