HTC S740 Diamond 3G Wi-Fi 3.2-megapixel QWERTY Windows Mobile Smartphone, Factory Refurbished, GSM unlocked
Factory-refurbished HTC S740 Diamond 3G WI-FI 3.2-megapixel Qwerty Windows Mobile Smartphone GSM Unlocked, the faceted QWERTY slider on Windows Mobile 6.1. Collector shops like it for the Diamond styling; exporters take it for UMTS markets. It has no US network use. Color is not stated; confirm with your account manager.
The HTC S740 is a 2008 Windows Mobile 6.1 Standard phone that borrowed the faceted back of the Touch Diamond and added a slide-out QWERTY keyboard under a non-touch 2.4-inch QVGA display. It has a 3.2-megapixel camera, HSDPA 3G, Wi-Fi, GPS, a built-in RSS reader, and a 528 MHz Qualcomm processor, and it was sold unlocked in Europe and Asia rather than through US carriers.
It is a 3G GSM phone with no LTE, so it is a legacy device in 2026. TG Wireless sells factory-refurbished S740 units to collector and enthusiast shops, exporters serving live UMTS markets, and prop houses.

Condition: Factory Refurbished
Factory refurbished units have been reconditioned to close-to-new working order. They are not brand new and may show light signs of handling. TG tests and grades each unit before it ships. Tell your account manager whether you need units with the original box and accessories or handset-only packs; the mix varies by lot.
Network and compatibility
The S740 is a 2G GSM and 3G HSDPA phone with no LTE and no VoLTE. US carriers retired 3G in 2022 and T-Mobile shut down 2G GSM on August 3, 2026, so this phone will not get voice or data service on any US network. Realistic uses are export to markets where GSM or UMTS service is still live, collector sales, film and TV props, display, and Wi-Fi-only use. Lock state is per listing; see the network status line in the table.
Resale fit
- Collector and enthusiast shops stocking Diamond-era HTC Windows Mobile hardware.
- Exporters serving markets where GSM and UMTS service remains.
- Prop houses and parts buyers.
