  • Abstract:  The highlight of the Pantech Duo C810 is its unique dual-slider design. Slide the cover up to reveal a standard dial pad; slide it to the right and you’re presented with a full QWERTY keyboard. It’s ingenious in its own way, though not without a few ca...

  • Stylish, dual-slider design, Good voice quality, Fast data downloads, Easily accessible microSD Card slot
  • Cramped, recessed QWERTY keyboard, Short talk time/battery life, No GPS
  • More compact than most Windows Mobile phones, the Pantech duo sports a dual-slider design, so you get both a QWERTY keyboard and numeric keypad. (Its actually kind of addictive.) Other highlights include high-speed HSDPA data and easy access to instan...

  • Most people that read this site probably know that Im a big fan of Palm OS and have been using a Treo for what seems like forever. A couple years ago I went through a whole nightmare ordeal buying a SprintPCS Treo 650 that was hacked to run on the Ve...

  • Abstract:  The time I spent with the Pantech Duo seesawed between enjoyment and mild frustration. The Duo’s dual-slider design makes for, quite possibly, the best non-touchscreen Windows Mobile Smartphone configuration thus far, but its lackluster features and...

  • Unique design, more compact than the Helio Ocean. Good browsing speeds on AT&T’s HSDPA network.
  • Flat, cramped keyboard makes messaging difficult. Mobile Office is hobbled. Proprietary connector a hassle.
  • The Pantech Duo is a nice alternative to other Windows Mobile Standard devices on the market, like the Motorola Q. Instead of that phone’s slab form and bulk, the Duo offers an elegant compromise. A little bit of bulk for a QWERTY keyboard. Suffer t...
