(phone needs a separate on-off button). I like the smallness of the phone, (with everything else that you haveto carry or worry about)It is nice not to have to carry a brick aroundfor a phone. As for the camera, It may not be that good, but I don't buy a phone to take pictures. If you hold ittoo long the phone shuts off. but i give the phone a high 4.If the phone had the camera removed and a separate on-off button.With the added blue tooth. The camera-phone is good to add wallpaper or personal moments.The two features I do not like.
the center button does not go to a main menu as one would expect, the center but goes to the internet. I like the buttons covered so you do not accidentallydial. 2. 1. The on-off button is the call hang up button also. Phone is too small for that and it takes too long to disconnect.
I would give it a 5.
The phone also feels quite sturdy and well-made. There are alot of ambiguously-labeled menu items under redundant or illogical categories, though if you consult the manual it isn't usually hard to figure them out. It's tiny, but when it unfolds it's just long enough to be fairly comfortable to talk into. I really like this phone. The size and adorable-ness is definitely worth it, as the drawbacks aren't really that serious.[Update on battery life: If there are only two bars left, charge it. For one, the menus are somewhat confusing.
It's also so ridiculously cute that I think I actually feel emotions toward it.There are a few downsides, of course.
There are some very thoughtful features, like the ability to take photos using either LCD screen (as in you can also take photos of yourself).
If that setting doesn't exist, that's pretty annoying.Also, there seems to be something strange and unpredictable about the battery life.
The size is perfect.
Though I still haven't figured out whether there's a setting to make it give continuous "reminder" sounds every so often if there's a message, event or missed call.
It also lets you easily switch between text-editing modes with a single button, including one just for special characters, making it way easier to add punctuation to your text messages.
And the one-button vibrate mode toggle is amazing.
I keep finding that the phone has run out of batteries and has been turned off all day, when I thought it had almost a full battery left.But, I generally like this phone.
The last two bars seem to disappear disproportionately quickly].
It was a BIG Mistake that I picked this piece of junk from AT&T lots of NEGATIVE Stuff I can say:1stYou cannot send pictures that is saved in your file easy, first you have to be online and email the pictures as an attachment, which is already tedious just to go to your email account.UNLIKE other Cell Phone like Nokia you can send pictures 123, pick picture press "send" it will prompt you to directory with both cell #'s for texting or email address if you want to email them.2ndDOES NOT WORK with Motorola H350 HeadsetIt will recognized the model but will not work when you want to use them, my buddy tried this Motorola H350 headset in his cell phone it work without a problem.3rdTEXTING not that easyIf you have a private # you have to make duplicate of your directory and delete *82 before the number since it will not work.4th Clarity is very poor5thLIMITED storageCan only copy few messages you sent, you have to delete old messages if you want to save text you sent.6th NOT FRIENDLY USERUnless you read the entire Owner's Manual (which even AT&T Customer Service can't understand) you feel throwing this junk in the window.Pantech tried to be different from Motorola, Nokia and other major cell phone manufacturer. The basic operations SUCKS to the CORE.OVER ALL REVIEW STAY AWAY FROM PANTECH PRODUCTSThey are a JOKE.
I just got this as an extra phone. You can transfer pics and ringtones just fine on a mac with bluetooth. texting is fine too but I prefer my blackjack for that. I love the flashlight function though. I swapped the blue cover for the silver one. Very cool. I own a samsung blackjack and I just wanted another phone to use when having the blackjack would be inconvenient, First off the camera SUCKS. It comes with really lame ringtones and wallpapers so be prepared to buy some new ones or make your own.
The call quality is good, but not quite as loud as my blackjack. bluetooth works fine with my samsung headset. Overall it's a very good basic phone. I like it better.
