Windows Phone Thoughts: Let's Glofiishing with the X500

Size Comparisons: Just How Thin Is It?
At 113.0mm x 59.5mm x 15.5mm, E-TEN claims that the Glofiish X500 is the world's thinnest Pocket PC Phone. Sadly, this isn't true, as the UBiQUiO 501 beats it by two millimetres, but to E-TEN's credit, the X500 is still incredibly slim and more functional than the 501 by a long mile. How does it compare with other devices?

Here, we see the X500 head-to-head with its predecessor, the E-TEN M600. The X500 is noticeably thinner, just a hair taller, and features-wise, packs more of a punch.

Not surprisingly, the Dell Axim X50v is significantly wider and taller than the compact X500.
