Review The successor to the S710, the S730 is a dull but hard-working member of the HTC clan. It’s neither quite so ubiquitous as its big brother the TyTn II nor quite as fashionable as its sisters Touch, Dual and Cruise.

In appearance, the S730 is a pretty run-of-the-mill smartphone, with its traditional keyboard layout; 2.4in, 320 x 240, 65,536-colour screen; and stout HTC-grey plastic shell. With its slide-out Qwerty keyboard, the S730 could be seen as a sort of TyTn mini-me. It does most of the same things, but at 106 x 51 x 19.4mm in size and 150g in weight it’s a fair bit narrower and shorter, and a whole 40g lighter. OK, it’s 5mm thicker, but you can’t have everything.
