I'm also disappointed with how big it is, I really would prefer a phone the size of the 800. After playing with it at the Microsoft store I would buy one of I could get It subsidized.

Its about the same size height and width wise as a galaxy s 2

No way. Maybe the size of one of the ******* Galaxy S II's with the larger screens, but my original Galaxy S II is a lot smaller than my Titan.

It's listed as 1.8mm longer and 1.5mm wider than the Focus S, but considerably fatter and heavier. One of its 'cons' at Phone Arena was "the huge dimensions allow it to be used as a brick replacement".
Nokia phones have always tended to be bricks, but they have also been more durable than others.

Very similar to the Focus S, but yes, thicker and heavier. The Titan is noticeably larger, but not by very much.

That's unfortunate. I have the Titan and find it too large of a pocketable device already. This takes me out of the 900 market. =(

I just wish they would make the 800 with a FFC.

I have to say, it worries me too. I was on the Lumia 900 bandwagon, but am now concerned at how big this thing will feel. Time will tell.

Im still planning on buying the 900, mainly because I know the 800 will never be available subsidized. Its a beautiful phone and im just gonna have to deal with the size.

It has a awful big battery. But the the Droid Razr Maxx has a 40% larger battery and is 2.5mm thinner. How the heck did they do that? Or did they. Anybody want to measure the Maxx.

Nokia has always built a little thicker and heavier, I suspect mostly in their concern for durability. My housemates N900 could be used as a blunt instrument, but it was a great phone.

I'm not surprised by this. The 800 has alot of material around the screen, especially at the bottom, so it makes sense that the 900 would be large as well.

Since it has extra materials and Gorilla Glass, can it just be carried around naked? I wonder if the plastic is scraped is it blue all the way through so the scrape won't be so noticible?

The polycarbonate should be the color all the way through so a scratch shouldnt be noticible.

I see this as a major under-the-radar benefit of this phone. I'm always having to worry about having my iPhone 4 in a protective case. The 900 looks very durable and the polycarbonate should basically act as a case.
