Carlos,
Comparing my Contax T and my Rollei 35S, I find that their lengths are identical, their heights are also identical because the Rollei's wind lever brings the height up to that of the Contax T, and, finally, the Rollei 35S is thicker than the Contax T. The body of the 35S is just about the same thickness as the Contax T, but the amount the lens sticks out (collapsed, of course) makes it thicker by about 12mm. As far as sliding into my shirt pocket, the Contax T always slides in easily; the Rollei always catches on the lens.

... the Contax T cameras are bigger than the
Rollei 35, the Rollei 35 enters into normal shirts or
pants pockets.

Jerry, interesting comments. After owning SE, T,
2-S's,
 I wished I would have kept the German made model.
They
 were well made nice picture takers but had their
quirks.

And  ..... I compleltely agree with your analysis of
the ergonomics
and  propensity to dent corners, not to mention the
use of flash.
I had two repaired by Harry Fleenor. In spite of the
cost of the
cameras and repairs, my cost and  expenses were
adequately
recovered  when I sold the cameras on eBay. Foreign
buyers
were seeking then at the time.

I might add that these little cameras held their
value, especially
when I indicated that repairs were  by Harry. They
are still
in demand.
