Samsung SGH D710

The Samsung SGH-D710 is a Symbian Series 60 smartphone that was announced in 2004. It is a slider phone with a 2.12-inch TFT display, a 1-megapixel camera, an RS-MMC card slot, and infrared connectivity. It comes with a variety of pre-installed applications, including a music player, a video player, and a web browser.

The D710 is a well-built phone with a solid feel. The slider mechanism is smooth, and the phone feels good in the hand. The display is bright and clear, and the colors are accurate. The camera takes good photos and videos, and the card slot allows you to expand the phone's storage capacity.

This device is Samsung's second attempt at a Series 60 device, after skipping the SGH-D700 shown at CeBIT last year. The new device uses the slider form factor instead of the twisting clamshell design of the D700, but still keeps the external stub antenna.

I find the presence of the antenna a bit strange, considering that so many of their current handsets no longer have it.
