Other than the reduced thickness, the LX is relatively unchanged from the Sidekick 3 as far as the shape and navigation buttons are concerned. The only way a stranger might know you're not using a sidekick 3 is if he noticed how positively huge and bright the new screen is.
Unfortunately the thinner profile has reduced the size of the shoulder and volume buttons beyond what had been done to the Sidekick 3.
Dedicated Sidekick users will appreciate two ways the Sidekick has progressed. Danger has returned to a rubber coated keypad similar to the Sidekick 2. The screen also flips open as easily as it did on the 2. It does not catch on anything and a light tap in the upper right corner easily makes it flip around.
The only part of the LX's design that is not an improvement is the plastic used in the body. The solid build quality and nice heft, however, is the only thing that prevents the LX from actually feeling cheap.
