The buttons.
At the bottom are from left to right, the call buttons, start menu, and go back. The buttons are fairly small and I believe are a significant distance to the thumb to press. I myself have fairly large hands and it is for me not as a problem to the call button.

Bottom.

At the bottom as usual HTC has the connection for the mini-USB port placed. This connection can be just as in a number of other HTC devices also be used for the headphones to be connected. HTC success formula of the 3.5 inch headphone jack on this unit and we must abandon the USB headphones
