Philips seems on the rage with new phone releases. Just when we posted about two other models — Xenium 9@9q and Xenium X620 — the electronics giant has unveiled another handset. The Philips Xenium X710 is a candybar-shaped device with “standard for Philips” great battery (Li-Ion 1900 mAh). In addition, it also comes with two SIM card slots, allowing users to have a single device running on two networks – a feature that is in demand in parts of Asia.
Other specs include:
- Tri-band GSM/GRPS/EDGE (900/1800/1900 MHz) radio
- 2.4-inch QVGA (240×320 pixels) screen
- 3 megapixel camera with auto-focus that can take both photos and videos
- FM Radio
- Bluetooth with stereo support (A2DP)
- 20MB of internal memory that is further expandable with microSD cards
We’re not sure about the release date, but we do know western hemisphere probably won’t get a chance to try the Xenium X710 out. It’s heading to Russia and parts of Asia…
