HTC S710 Review - Features
FeaturesEditor Rating: The obvious new feature of the HTC S710 is the new operating system in Windows Mobile 6.0. The OS offers users easier access to their email by allowing for email searching and opening of documents in the HTML Format. The Operating system also allows users to open documents in their entirety without having to use the Send/Receive function as it did in the previous Windows Mobile 5.0 OS. The calendar and other views are also greatly enhanced. I’ll get into the Windows Mobile 6.0 Operating system in more depth at a later date, I will mention however that the phone operates smoothly and efficiently with the new interface.
The HTC S710 features a sliding qwerty keyboard that flips between standard and landscape modes depending on the keyboards position with a striking blue lit display module. The S710 I examined came unlocked with no type of GSM Carrier features flashed to it (Cingular/ATT, TMobile, Cellular One). I personally think this is a good thing as it allows users to load their own third party applications, while not restricting the phones capabilities to one service. If you are looking for a direct load system with T-Mobile features or Cingular offerings however, you may actually find this feature to be limiting. An added bonus is the ability to open MS Office applications in Word, Excel, and Powerpoint for easy viewing and editing, a newly found feature that added an ease of business use to the device. With the use of Mass card storage through the phones USB syncing feature it easier than ever to work with office documents on the go. The 2.0 Megapixel camera offers nothing new in terms of picture taking, but it also doesn’t detract from the phones usability, the pictures taken were of an average gradient and the lighting in room lit conditions was sharp and concise, but nothing to gawk at. The picture quality in low lit areas was okay considering the phone doesn’t house a flash, and the pictures loaded quickly once taken with little delay from the time the button was pressed to take the picture or video.

I have been using it now for almost a year and feel like crushing it under my boots. The battery life is short, I cannot silence the phone while an incoming call is ringing, it is slow on the internet (no GPRS or faster), the enter button on the main display does not work, the phone switches itself off when ever it feels like it, I cannot see the display properly when trying to access a telephone number during a call, the unlock function sometimes does not word, etc, etc, etc. All in all a very dissapointing phone.
