Following up on a post that Marin wrote a week or so ago, the Vodafone 845 (aka the Joy) is a Huawei handset that is due to make an appearance on Vodafone soon. A mid-ranger, none of the specs appear too exciting, at least on the face of things.
However, there are a few pieces of information that could suddenly make this handset very interesting – namely the dimensions! The Unwired thinks that the handset could be the smallest Android device yet, shunting the previous holder (HTC Tattoo) out of top spot! The dimensions are apparently 100 x 55 x 13 mm, which would bring it in as the teeniest Google OS device to-date!
But do we care? Does size matter? Well only you can answer that question, but for sure this baby in the size stakes isn’t going to be packing the largest screen ever, which does somewhat go against the trend we’ve seen with Android devices recently.

Ben is a 10+ year veteran of the Mobile industry – starting his career when SMS was a still a relatively new concept for most people (!), he has now consulted on everything from bleeding-edge Mobile content, to the next-gen accessories you might view it on. As a result he has a broad and deep knowledge in numerous areas of Mobile – from network operators to device vendors, to infrastructure and middleware vendors (not to mention content delivery) – and has worked for companies in all of these areas! He is based in the UK, a hotbed of activity for mobile, and recently became a father for the second time – as oppose to in his younger years when he was happy spend time tweaking all manner of mobile devices to 'nth' degree, he now looks for services and hardware that provide the most efficient, compact, and reliable improvements to his already manic life! It’s his opinion that Mobile solutions should be there to help to make your life better – if a particular solution (be it service or device) isn’t doing this, he believes you need to ask the very important question of why you continue to use it... His focus at IntoMobile is mainly on Mobile content, services, and infrastructure, particularly as regards the UK market – and with the occasional look at devices. Additionally, using his extensive experience in the industry, he will provide commentary on the industry at large, with regular (and hopefully thought-provoking) articles.
