"Too" heavy is "too" subjective without defining criteria... lol... That said, it could be argued that our fixed battery Classics might be heavier than necessary for some use cases. Since our batteries can't be swapped mid-day, it must be sized for heaviest expected use. Battery accounts for significant portion of device weight.
Most days my Classic goes to bedside charging cradle with well over 1/2 charge remaining. Meaning its battery is twice the size it really needs to be for "typical" use. Other, non-typical low signal, days i'm hunting a wall to hug before day's end... Or, switch back to my secondary 9900. That 9900's swappable battery configuration permits smaller, lighter, battery since its undersized battery can simply be swapped during lunch or coffee breaks when drained. On days when i know i'll be in low signal industrial environments, i simply swap in my 5000mAh battery into that backkup 9900.
That oversized (for most days) 5000mAh battery makes the 9900 weigh about the same as my Classic. IMO, the weight really affords improved stability while loosely cradled in hand during upright, two handed use. The SIZE of the Classic truly becomes a problem during out of position, single handed, use. I can securely grasp my 9900 between first finger on top edge, and pinky finger on bottom edge, while crawling around equipment or while in bed. Not so secure grasp on my Classic in similar scenarios. Pinky gets pretty fatigued after 13hr days.
I would argue that Classic is too large long before arguing that it is too heavy. IMO.
yea ill call you weak,classic is just fine no problems carrying it here :)
I like the weight of the Classic and find it in no way difficult to "wield".

Lay on your side. No chance of it falling on your face that way...

And where are the weights in the Classic? I think you are a bit confused with your comparison. Beats, the overpriced crappy headphones add weights to pretend to be a normally heavy piece of technology, like the BB Classic naturally is...
