The shell is made of plastic and there is no aluminum as in the MyPal A600. But we won’t think of it as a drawback, all recent models come with non-metal shell. As a matter of fact it’s the norm for modern handhelds. Only Sony applies metal insertions in its Hi-End models. Having assessed the plastic quality we found it appropriate. However the shell doesn’t look that expensive as in the latest HP iPaq models (you will not mix it with metal either by touch or by sight). The casing doesn’t creak and there are no backlashes to be seen. Nowadays the given model is the thinnest among handhelds with integrated Compact Flash slot (13.3 mm) due to the absence of SD/MMC slot. But it’s taller and wider against its direct rival – HP iPaq 2210. See the photo to compare dimensions of the A620 with other models. It looks that way side by side with the iPaq 1940 (the smallest Pocket PC today). The dimensions of the A620 are average, you can’t call the handheld big or small.
