Meizu 16s Pro and Kyocera DuraForce Pro 2, performance comparison
Meizu 16s Pro and Kyocera DuraForce Pro 2 size comparison. Which to choose?
The size of the body has a big influence on the ease of carrying and one-handed operation. The narrower the width, the easier it is to firmly grasp and hold, but you also have to take into account the device's thickness. Also, if the width and height are smaller, its easier to operate one-handed since its easier to extend your fingers. On the contrary, if the width and height are large, it's difficult to fit in your pocket and is bulky even when put in a bag, and portability is impaired.
The Meizu 16s Pro has a width of 2.9 inches (73.4 mm), a length of 6.0 inches (151.9 mm), and a thickness of 0.3 inches (7.7 mm). Also, the Kyocera DuraForce Pro 2 has a width of 2.9 inches (73.4 mm), a length of 5.9 inches (150.2 mm), and a thickness of 0.5 inches (13.5 mm).
Comparing the width and thickness of the body, the Meizu 16s Pro is considerably smaller and more compact than the Kyocera DuraForce Pro 2. The Meizu 16s Pro excels over the Kyocera DuraForce Pro 2 in terms of being easier to hold with one hand and is therefore less likely to be accidentally dropped.
