Summary
Riyad has finally found a single device to satisfy all his voice and data needs!

Verdict
The SPV E650 is the first device I've come across that can truly be described as a single solution for data and voice. It's small enough to be carried around in any situation and fully featured enough to handle all of your mobile data needs. OK, so it ...

Summary
Brilliant, as the British say: take the side-sliding QWERTY keyboard design from popular HTC-made Pocket PC phones such as the Cingular 8525, T-Mobile MDA and Verizon XV6700 and use it on an MS Smartphone. When we first saw the HTC Vox (that's ...

Verdict
. If the HTC S710 had 3G, our star rating would have been higher.

Summary
HTC's S710 is ideal if you're seeking a smartphone with a full keyboard that can fit comfortably in your pocket. We'd have liked to see 3G support though.

Pros
Sliding keyboard, Windows Mobile 6, Quad-band GSM, 802.11b/g Wi-Fi and Bluetooth 2.0

Cons
Lacks 3G support, Average battery life, Expensive without operator subsidy

Verdict
HTC's S710 is ideal if you're seeking a smartphone with a full keyboard that can fit comfortably in your pocket. We'd have liked to see 3G support though...

Summary
The HTC S710 - previously code-named 'Vox' - is a neat, petite and easy-to-use smartphone from HTC.

Verdict
Regarded as a PDA, the HTC S710 is neat and petite - but slightly heavier than it looks. Six months ago we took a look at another HTC handset that was a smartphone proper and we found its standard phone keypad easier to use than this. Still, the HTC ...

Summary
If you don't mind the slow CPU sometimes and the lack of fast 3G internet connection, then S710 is the Windows Mobile Standard smartphone for you. In its compact size and handy design, it combines nice display, handy keyboard and full QWERTY for the ...

Pros
QWERTY keyboard packed in a compact body, Version 6 of Windows Mobile OS, Built-in WiFi

Cons
EDGE data only, Mediocre camera quality

Summary
A rebranded HTC S710, the Orange SPV E650 is a great device if you want an email-centric device but don't want to lug around a massive handset. At first sight it looks like a standard candybar phone, but flicking the top section out reveals a small ...

Pros
Good looking design ; slide-out keyboard ; good range of features

Cons
No 3G support ; sometimes feels sluggish

Verdict
With its large screen, slick design and slide-out keyboard, the Orange SPV E650 is one of the most impressive Windows smart phones we've seen in a while. The lack of 3G support and sometimes sluggish performance are disappointments, but despite these ...

Summary
The HTC S710 is one of the first shipping Windows Mobile 6 Standard devices, and the first non-touchscreen Windows Mobile handset with a slide out QWERTY keyboard. We did some extensive testing on the enticing device, and present to you our in-depth ...

Pros
Big screen, relatively small size, great features, QWERTY keyboard

Cons
Keyboard is a little too firm, lack of 3G

Verdict
Even if nothing else can be said about the HTC S710, the device still has one distinct advantage over most Windows Mobile smartphones: if you are looking for a device with a sliding QWERTY keyboard, there really is no competition at the moment.

Verdict
A great little smartphone that's both desirable and, thanks to Windows Mobile 6, very speedy.
