Comparisons Featuring HTC S730
Short Review
- The HTC S730 features a compact design with dimensions of 105.8 x 51 x 19.4 mm and a weight of 150g, making it portable but somewhat bulky.
- Its 2.4-inch TFT display supports 65K colors with a resolution of 240 x 320 pixels, offering a pixel density of approximately 167 ppi, which is adequate for basic tasks.
- Performance is driven by a Qualcomm MSM7200 chipset, a 400 MHz ARM 11 CPU, and an Adreno 130 GPU, complemented by 64MB of RAM, which may limit multitasking capabilities.
- The rear camera is 2 MP, allowing for basic photography, but lacks advanced features like optical image stabilization and a front-facing camera.
- Battery life is supported by a 1050 mAh capacity, but it does not offer fast or wireless charging options.
- The device runs on Microsoft Windows Mobile 6.0 Standard, which may feel outdated compared to modern operating systems.
- Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11b/g and Bluetooth 2.0, but it lacks 5G and NFC capabilities.
- The build is simple with a metal grey finish, but it does not offer water resistance.
- Overall, the HTC S730 presents basic functionality suitable for users seeking essential features without modern enhancements.
