Amazon.com Product Description
The HTC S710 smartphone is the most compact smartphone with semi auto-sliding full keyboard, and it's one of the first phones to offer the power of the Windows Mobile 6 Standard operating system (for non-touchscreen phones). Practical and versatile, the HTC S710 is ideal for today's business traveler on the go. The sliding QWERTY keyboard will help you type emails quickly and stay on top of your most important documents, and the screen automatically adjusts from portrait to landscape orientation. Other features include Bluetooth connectivity for both communication headsets and stereo headphones, a 2-megapixel camera, and a bright 2.4-inch LCD screen. It communicates over GSM/GPRS networks and offers data service via the EDGE network as well as via Wi-Fi (802.11b/g) networks. This unlocked phone does not come with service or a SIM card.



The S710 offers both a traditional numeric keypad for one-handed use and a slide-out QWERTY keyboard for two-handed use in landscape mode.
This new platform provides genuine mobile Office Outlook experience, greater control of Outlook Mobile Calendar, and an improved Internet Explorer Mobile browsing experience. It also offers greater interoperability with Exchange Server 2007, providing you with improved e-mail management (such as Fetch Mail and Set Flags), Out-of-Office assistant, and HTML e-mail viewing capabilities (see more on Windows Mobile 6 below).

The S710's 2.4-inch QVGA TFT LCD screen has a white LED backlighting, 240 x 320-pixel resolution, and 65,000 colors. It comes with a built-in memory of 128 MB of ROM and 64 MB of RAM, and it's expandable via MicroSD memory cards (which currently offer up to a 2 GB capacity). Other features include voice dial and command, loudspeaker for hands-free operation, an external antenna connector, and an 11-pin USB 2.0 port that doubles as an audio jack. And don't forget the S710's Wi-Fi capability, which makes high-speed data access a breeze via an 802.11g hotspot.

The Windows Media Player is compatible with a wide variety of digital audio formats (AMR/AAC/WAV/WMA/MP3). It also offers Bluetooth stereo audio support, enabling you to enjoy your music without any wires. The 2-megapixel digital camera captures still images up to 1600 x 1200 pixels--great for 8 x 10-inch prints, and other photo features include video capture, multi-shot stills, self-timer, and white balance controls.

Vital Statistics
The HTC S710 weighs 4.94 ounces and measures 4 x 1.97 x 0.73 inches. Its 1050 mAh lithium-ion battery is rated at up to 7 hours of talk time, and up to 175 hours of digital standby time. It runs on the 850/900/1800/1900 GSM/GPRS/EDGE frequencies. The phone comes with a one year limited warranty.

Powered by Windows Mobile 6



Windows Mobile 6 adds power to your mobile office with up-to-date e-mail delivery and automatic synchronization of Outlook calendars.


Edit Word documents and Excel spreadsheets on your phone, just as you would on your desktop/laptop PC.
Microsoft's Windows Mobile 6 updates the Windows Mobile 5 platform with a number of handy features that make searching through email, editing Microsoft Office documents, and staying on top of your most important communications even easier. Emails can now be viewed in their original rich HTML format and now offer the ability to visit embedded links. It also includes Windows Live for Windows Mobile, which provides a full set of Windows Live services, such as the Windows Live Messenger IM application, which now enables you to chat with more than one person at one time or send a file.

With Windows Mobile 6, your phone will finally be able to emulate the power and features of your PC's Microsoft Office suite. You'll be able to neatly view, navigate and edit Word documents and Excel spreadsheets in their original formatting--without affecting tables, images or text--as well as view PowerPoint presentations.

  • Microsoft Office Word Mobile features include spell-check, Find and Replace commands, bulleted lists, text formatting, and support for tables for the first time.
  • With Excel Mobile, youOre not just confined to editing charts: with the new Chart Wizard you can create charts quickly and easily.
  • PowerPoint Mobile allows you to view the full presentation, rehearse timings, check the order and any live links you may have in your presentation. You can then email comments back to the team or communicate via MSN Messenger for an immediate response.
  • After creating or editing a Word document or Excel spreadsheet, you can synchronize it with your PC and it will automatically be converted to the PC version.

All Windows Mobile 6 powered devices include Direct Push Technology for up-to-date e-mail delivery and automatic synchronization of Outlook calendars, tasks and contacts through Microsoft Exchange Server. It also offers a set of important device security and management features that include the capability to remotely wipe all data from a device should it be lost or stolen, helping ensure that confidential information remains that way.

1 out of 5 stars please don't buy this phone   December 16, 2008
R. Dean
I have never written a review but I hate this phone so much I had to write it, I take care of my electronics and I am so angry that I have this phone. I bought this phone about 5 months ago. Let me list the reasons why this phone is the worst tech investment ever:
1. Sometimes my mail downloads, sometimes not.
2. When it does download, sometimes the whole message downloads, sometimes it downloads partially although my settings are for the full message.
3. And now i am getting an error message about low storage space that pops up every few minutes even though i have deleted almost everything on the phone.
4. This phone is a POWER HOG! One minute its fully charged, the next hours, maybe not even a whole day it's dead. And I have power saving settings on.
5. If you enter 3 numbers for the same contact, the name shows up 3 times, not just once w/ 3 numbers connected to it.
6. I e-mailed HTC tech help DAYS ago about the memory alert and I have not gotten any response yet.

AND I know someone else who got a touchscreen HTC at the same time that I got this phone. His touch screen already has stopped working. And he also takes care of his phone.

I just want to trash this phone with a bat but it costs $400.00! Although this phone has nice features, it is not easy to use and for the hassle that it is, it's not worth the money. HTC is not ready for prime time! Instead, get a blackberry, an i-phone, get a wire and two cups... anything else but an HTC. Or you'll be very sorry.



4 out of 5 stars Best phone I've ever had!   August 23, 2008
Jup (Sacramento, CA United States)
I've had this phone for over a year and I love it! It's not without its faults, but overall you can beat it. Here are some of the things I'm not crazy about:

> No 2.5mm headphone jack, just the USB
> Sometimes a little slow/glitchy, but not bad.
> Only one, not very smart, alarm clock. This one is probably a small issue for most people, but I use my phone as an alarm clock a lot and it basically treats it like an appointment, so snooze options are really funky and I can't choose the tone. There's probably a program or something I could install, but it would have been nice to not have to mess with.
> The keyboard buttons are small, but I can navigate and type still with only a few errors. (I'm a guy with slender fingers, so someone with thicker fingers would probably have more of an issue.)

Otherwise, this is a great phone, but only for the casual user. I don't think business users would have tolerance for some of the features it lacks and for the money, you could get something more suited to your needs. But someone wanting a phone that's nicer than just a run-of-mill freebie from your provider, but not a full on, business intensive PDA/phone, then this is for you.

Call quality in any mode (handset, speaker, headset) is perfect, features are really good (Word, Excel, Adobe reader, etc.), Windows Media Player, etc.

Basically, I'm only shopping again because the kids got mine wet and it shorted out. It still works, but the battery life, which was amazing before (2-3 days of moderate use without charging), isn't what it used to be. I'll be trying to either fix my phone or replace it, but not changing models unless I really have too.

I have had at least 10 different types of Smartphones. I have been using this phone for about 6 months and it is without question the best. The only negative--if you use the screen a lot, the battery life is not as strong as I would like. Every phone I have tried has this same problem.


5 out of 5 stars Excelent Phone   December 31, 2007
Edda De Reyes (Venezuela)
excelent phone, i've had ppc-6700 and a treo 650.

what i like more about the htc is the size, is quite small almost to the size of a motorola a-1200, very practical and fast.

the downside is the lack of touchscreen



2 out of 5 stars Awesome looking phone, quality appears great.. shiny, but its more like bronze than gold   November 5, 2007

This phone seemed soooooo awesome out of the box! It looks bodacious! It feels like high quality. You turn it on and its easy to use, sounds good, and has a great speakerphone.

But here are a couple problems I had with the phone...

Poor reception! About 3 or 4 times in the first 2 weeks of owning this phone, my reception would cut out for hours at a time no matter where I was in town.

ALARM PROBLEMS!!! I set an alarm for everyday when I wake up. Well I switched shifts so I disable the alarm on the phone... but it still wouldn't shut off!!! Every day it went off at the same time no matter how many times I deleted the alarm! and if the phone is locked it's very hard to shut the alarm off before you want to throw the phone against the wall.... Also it would activate the alarm about 50 times in the same moment, causing the device to freeze and no way to reset it, unless you take the battery out. WHICH CAN BE VERY FRUSTRATING when you're trying to sleep in.

I have read in online posts that this has happens to lots of S710 owners.

Everything else is great! good wi-fi, calls, etc.
