 Pantech PG-8000 is announced in 2005
Design
The black and white display is ideal for text, messages and simple pictures like logos and picture massages.The display resolution 320 x 240 pixel ideal for small and smart phone.
The left side of the unit holds a spacious volume rocker, while on the other side we find a dedicated camera button.There is nice LEDs which notify users of new messages, active network and missed calls. This is not common for all Pantech handsets and is not necessary to pick up and activate the device to see whether any alerts are waiting.
Ergonomics
The PG-8000 is not comfortable for hold in ones hand because it is too wide.Sporting a simple and user friendly menu in style with other recent Pantech handsets.The plastic keypad has good placed keys, giving it a cheap feel while oddly designed buttons, with the comfortable center keys, make the phone easer to dial.And last,but not least, a five-way navigation buttons centered below the display.
Features
In the WAN department, the PG-8000 boasts healthy support for Tri-band 900/1800/1900 MHz, as well as GPRS, SMS, and a range of applications such as Java MIDP 2.0, 64-channels polyphony, a voice recorder, all of which laptop and handheld users will be pleased to learn is a breeze to utilize either by means of infrared old wireless device,GPRS support is the fastest way to download files with your mobile, and spacious phone book.
As previously mentioned, the PG-8000 is also equipped with a 0.1 megapixel camera support for picture-taking and audio/video recording, as well as an integrated MP3 player.The latter of which is also the reason for why the 8 MB of internal memory, which initially appears spacious, is quickly stretched to its limits. The PG-8000 also comes with an and Multi Media Card (MMC) expansion slot located under its battery,a 16-128 MB card comes bundled in the sales package, more space for images audio and video files, less time for PC and communication cable for updating internal memory, MP3 and MPEG4 are both formats which can be stored for playback on the Pantech PG-8000.
Performance
Audio quality on the PG-8000 was crystal clear, and signal quality was good. The removable 820 mAh Li-ion battery is rated for 3 30 hours talk time or 200 hours standby, which is quite low given the battery's theoretical capacity. Charge time is about 122 minutes.
Availability
The Pantech PG-8000 is now available throughout Europe in some language version.
Conclusion
Pantech PG-8000 is a beautiful phone to hold and use, and it's quickly won our hearts. The typical Pantech design flair is present in abundance, with all the requisite consumer features to back it up.But love doesn't notice such little flaws. |
