Motorola Theory comes with a candybar design with full QWERTY keyboard in portrait mode; just like typical BlackBerry design. It is covered up by plastic chassis with rounded edges and soft-touch finished plastic on the back side. It fells compact and comfortable on hand measuring 112 x 60.5 x 12.5 mm and weighing 110 grams. The front side is resided by 2.4 inches LCD display with 262K color supports.
