Pantech has announced a veritable truckload of new handsets from CTIA Wireless in Orlando this week, including its new music-centric folder, the C510. With a metallic design and features tooled for audio, the Pantech C510 is an interesting little handset.
The Pantech C510 is a quad-band GPRS/EDGE device to be released in the North American market, and with its bright color scheme is obviously aimed at the youth demographic. A slightly disappointing 128×160 pixel resolution internal display is complemented by an inverse monochrome external screen for track information, positioned next to music control keys on the outside of the flip. While the device holds only 30MB of on board memory, music can be easily stored on microSD memory cards and listened to through stereo Bluetooth headphones. A 1.3 megapixel camera is also present for imaging.
The Samsung U600 isn’t the slimmest slider any more, because this Pantech IM-S230 just out-skinnied it by a whole millimeter. Like a couple of supermodel battling to see who can be the first to be completely invisible when viewed from the side, this Pantech phone is just 9.9mm thick, besting the positively corpulent Samsung U600, which at 10.9mm thinks she’s starting to look fat in those short shorts.
Besides that unique thinness, the Pantech slider holds the same spec line of many other phones, with a 2.2-inch display, MP3 player and DMB TV tuner, as well as a 1.3-megapixel camera. Koreans, who may need to be careful not to cut themselves while this phone occupies their pockets, will be shelling out a $535 for the privilege of carrying it. Can these phones get any thinner ? – Charlie White
