    e-waste

    Not really, I would use that to describe something that is relatively new that isn't useful or becomes obsolete, quickly. Surely this is the pretty much the opposite since it's had years of useful life and may still be used in some way well over a decade later?

    Saying that, I wouldn't buy it myself. (edited)

    Not got one myself but these old phones are still loads better than the crappy nokia 105 that i was given as a works phone. Poor signal and going for new at 9.99 on ebay.

    Brought a nokia e72, spare battery and it was fine. Calls and txt only though. Cost around 9.99.

    Don't use it now as was given an iPhone instead but for 6 months it was great.

    E71/E72 were fantastic phones!

    I bought one of those on 10th of October from the same seller. Never arrived. So SCAM alert ⚠️ 📢

    Do people get these for trade in deals?

    Correct

    Would this be any good for my 9 year old? Who is constantly loosing things lol
    Xiaoda's avatar
    Probably not. Get something running Android rather than Windows Mobile - this phone was great for hobbyists and enthusiasts who could mod it to high heaven and dual boot Android / Linux / Vista / Whatever and play around with it.

    Your 9yr old probably wants to play Candy Crush

    I remember around 10 years ago I had 2 of these. One was running android and the other was windows 98. xda developers was all over these because of how versatile these were. Fond memories. Lol

    Oh and defo heat from me for this price. Good job (edited)

    These are so damm NICE. They feel great, nice size, beautifully made. It's just a pity there's not a lot you can do with them. Apart from using as a phone, camera and music player, that is.

    Google Maps still works.

    Why will this phone not go away?
  12. heathergreen1's avatar
    Gawd, where are they getting 'em from, hahaha!
  13. smartbuddy's avatar
    The download links are dead on it though, looking for some working Android ROM, received the phone and it looks as good as New, wonder do they get it in such new like condition.
  14. urinthematrix's avatar
    Htc used to make awesome phones.. there built quality were 2nd to none.
    I had HTC wildfire, desire , desire s, and incredible. All were awesome.
    Wish they were still actively in the mobile game

    They are they just don't sell much in the UK if anything. 

    Ive got a Desire 19+ in the household, bought via Amazon Germany £93 from this site via switchy.

    Is weather app work on this?
  16. aruf's avatar
    The os and interface was just the best. Can some one just make launcher with the same features. These days with more power on our phones Devs have chosen to go for fewer animations and finding apps a chore. In this interface the weather animations were just the best and with the sliding bar at the bottom you could get to the apps you wanted with fewer clicks.

    I have fully working mint Nokia 930 , wonder how much that is worth
    picklejarbaron's avatar
    How's the alarm clock on yours? Mine only worked 60% of the time.
  21. jimbo23's avatar
    Do you have to put this one on speaker and shout at it in the middle of a shop with a 1 metre distance?
    Besford's avatar
    No!

    My HTC Titan was a beast.
  23. barg_ains's avatar
    Wow…trip down memory lane!!

    Upgraded from this to the HTC HD7 (which came with a built in kickstand) (edited)
  24. dacq's avatar
    It says "Due to old model and Windows update, this device will be Compatible for Calls & Texts only."
  25. nikc0069's avatar
    Technically this thing will run ubuntu!
    MilkTheFrog's avatar
    And Firefox OS. Think the Android ports are the most stable though.
  26. Seth_Tremb's avatar
    wow, i think those are the ones i sent back. Cant be used in trade ins but great phones I kept 2 for testing. Love old HTC phones
    stec77's avatar
    I bought two of these recently with the thought in the back of my mind that I could use them for trade ins! I was hoping to use them for the recent Google Pixel phone but they wouldn’t be accepted! For future reference, can anyone suggest the cheapest phone fir a future trade in!? Thanks in advance.

    Ordered one to toss in a go bag with a pay as you go sim, seems to function well enough and you can get spare batteries, heat added
  30. aidan_brennan's avatar
    Bought two. Handy for spares.
  31. Sebastian_Golli's avatar
    I used to buy those cheap as no one wanted windows phone and install android on it and resale. Probably done over 15 of them
    PremKumar's avatar
    Great! Can you please link to stable android ROM? Also there way to install rom on these from MAC or without PC? I can see lot of tools not working in latest Mac os version
  32. cabstar's avatar
    Damned I missed this phone. Was always getting asked if it was an iPhone.

    This is one of the greatest phones ever made :-)

    Just got mine delivered from seller, considering the age looks like new (edited)
  35. fancyschmeterling's avatar
    Recived mine too. Its running windows os 5.5
    But the latest update for it is 6.5

    These phones have never been used
    pxh's avatar
    Mine is running 5.2.21913 and also looks unused.

    Opened maps, showed Sydney in Australia. I am guessing they are non sold models from there. Regardless. The nostalgia is so real. Will attempt to flash android 5 today. Ideally android 7 would be the choice, but there isnt anything stable. Can see a few android 5 roms. Having older tech that works, anything below android 5 is unusable.

    Latest 5.1.1
