The glass is too slippery, for the first time I had to buy a bumper case, as I kept fearing it might slip from my hand. Otherwise, it feels sturdy and comfortable.

a much sturdier feel than my S10. the height makes it much easier to use one handed.

My p30 lite is comfortable in my hands. Feels cheap compared to my p10 mind. Also I've only had this phone for a few days and the glass back panel is already shattered so not having a good start with it!

The most slippery phone I've ever owned, will not sit on any surface that has even a very small tilt without sliding off, sometimes starts so slowly you don't notice until it's hit the floor
Flat on the side of the bath, right in the middle, 2 mins later smash into the bath, arm of sofa, only a couple degree tilt on it, again right in the middle, 2 mins later bang hits the floor, same on my knee, the thing is made of some frictionless voodoo magic
Got a Spigen rugged armor case today so no more of that
I thought the S9 was slippery but this is crazy slippery

Such a shame the back and sides arent cutted like in p30 pro, cause p30 with that round sides isnt that handy, that it could be with its size. S10 has better ergonomy imo because of its shape. But p30 is still good option among all that pans

Keeping in one hand prevents me to reach the opposite higher corner, and hard to reach the lowest too. Big displays are nice because permits to benefit of higher resolutions and better visibility, but have their vengeance on things like this
Usually it results slippery, so a cover is a must in my opinion both for keeping it protected and rough, especially to avoid a couple of really bad words with a final crash on da floor
This is my cover. Both sides are non slippery.

Yeah, a non slippery cover is this phone's best friend
In my hands, the phone results to slide away so easily. I often have hot hands, and by consequence, smooth hands. On 6X's materials the result is incredibly slippery!

My friend uses TPU+PC case. Very strong grip.

Doesn't feel slippery despite being metal.
definitely feels good. corners are curvy so phone can be easily carried in hand without trouble. Phone is of 5.5 inch screen size so a bigger one for many but the design makes the difference here and we can easily use the phone without any problem.
Feels good in hand.not slippery as honor 5x
It feels very good in hand nice look and design comfortable to hold but bit of slippery
Feels premium. I love the curved back
feels really premium in hand
Just the right size for my hand.
It feels alright when holding it. The size is really good, but it does feel cheap.

Device is very comfortable to hold, except the metal edges at the top and bottom can be mildly irritating after holding the phone in one hand for a long time.
Other than that the device feels great, with solid build quality and no rough edges elsewhere.
imo its pretty comfortable, would prefer a little more rounded edges tho, and tighter top/bottom metaledges. But overall happy
I find it kind of slippery when operating with one hand while riding my bike. I don't get a firm grip on it as I do with my Samsung S5.
Ordered Brushed Shockproof Case Slim Soft Rubber Back Cover from Ebay.
Above written after the first time. I don't find it harder to handle any more, in fact easier due to the smaller size.
while i've had the phone just over 24 hours, it's super comfy to hold, nice size, weight, the FRP is really nice to touch, and feels like a pico thinkpad.
Except for the edge, which digs into my palm...
I'll repeat what everyone is saying. The overall feeling of the phone in the hand is great, except for the corners. They dig into my palms pretty badly.
I like the rubberised coating, feels like the Nexus 5 did. The corners can get uncomfortable after a while, they really dig into your palm. Easy to reach everything on the phone and the volume rocker being above the power is long overdue for Sony.
Oh, well. How weird I'm only checking the review section now, after more than 4 years after I bought mine (and after it recently broke - long story).
Seems like I was the only one that appreciated those "sharp" edges? I just loved holding the phone on my pinky and sliding the edge right between the pinky and the ring finger.
Insanely comfortable and ergonomic, if you ask me. Quite the opposite applies to devices with bottom firing speakers.

This phone has screen on two sides so you can't put the phone down on a table and the screen is silky smooth and don't even want to put it on papers and stuff. I put it in a tent style, which works like a cell stand but I am afraid the edges can get scratched over a period of time. I wish ZTE thought this through and put little protruding edges at the corner so the screen does not touch when placed on the table, BUT I love this phone, multi tasking and big screen at your finger tips.
Thank you for all the love about our Axon M. If you contact us at 1-877-817-1759 we would love to resolve the issue you are having with the screen touching surfaces.

Takes some getting used to, especially flipping over the second screen could be a bit easier. But overall the phone has a good grip
It's OK. With the second screen, using a traditional case is out of the question, and the folding frame only style ZTE case for this phone is marginal at best.
I ended up putting two glass screen protectors on it so that the back screen is protected when I set the phone down but this does make it slick compared to the traditional dual layer cases I have used in the past.

Very comfortable phone when holding in hand.
It feels very comfortable to hold and thanks to the smaller bezels, the phone is smaller than my Mate 9 yet has a larger screen.

Very comfy but I also added this : Mate20pro Case Compatible with Huawei Mate 20 Pro Cover Luxury Slim Thin Commuter Woven Pattern Hawawi M20pro 6.39 Inch to make the fit even more comfy and non slippable
Fits in the hand just fine. (came from a p10 plus)
Only issue is its like a bar of soap without a case.

I guess you also have the Twilight version? I've heard the others are more grippy thanks to their textured rear.

Yeah twilight here.
Looks great. Just slippy as a slippy thing on a slippy day out.
Got a nice clear backed hybrid case and tempered glass screen protector so u can at least still see the colour pattern and be able to hold my phone lol.

Hey guys, I have a question. Does that textured back offer enough grip to be able to rock the phone without a case? Or do you find it's too slippery?

In my experience it has some grip with moist hands. But not enough with dry hands.
Sent from my Pixel 5
For me personally it has enough grip, i was scared holding the 4a because it's really slippery but the 5 feels fine and has a decent amount of grip.
I can easily use it with one hand without having the feeling it could drop anytime.
I thought I was a fan of big phones and was a little concerned about the difference in the size of the phone especially as I had my old 3XL at the side of it. When the screens are both on you then notice that the actual screen size difference is very small despite the 3XL looking far bigger. The 5 feels light and actually better in the hand. I do like the textured back although I will be covering it in a case
