The Yendo is a simple and compact entry-level phone with 93.5 x 52 x 15.5 mm size and 81 grams weight.The touchscreen is on the small size and the resolution is low.With good brightness and contrast levels the screen is more than acceptable in this price range. Viewing angles are OK and so is sunlight legibility. On the other hand, the user interface is both thumbable and eye-pleasing so you might not notice the screen’s downsides.

The top features the screen lock key which also acts as a power button. It’s small and barely protrudes but it was obviously done on purpose to minimize accidental presses.

The back of the phone features the 2 megapixel fixed-focus camera lens and the loudspeaker. The camera lens is not covered but quite inset, giving it a reasonable protection against scratches (but not against dust).
