Whilst looking like a standard phone at first glance - i.e., large screen, dial pad, shortcut keys - the HTC S710 also conceals a slide-out QWERTY keyboard underneath and a screen which switches automatically between portrait and landscape when you pop the keyboard out. The keyboard is easy to use as long as you don’t opt to have the blue backlight shining through, although the two menu buttons are very close to the casing above.
Back on the top of the phone the screen (not touch) takes main stage and the main dial-pad -1 a rubbery feel to it, which is comfortable to use although we found ourselves constantly pressing the 2 button when using the dpad.
