 Pantech G670 is announced in 2004
Design
Pantech's G670 has a standard design for this class handsets, measuring 40 x 80 x 21 mm and 85 grams. Despite the weight it has a good feel in the hand, and the good shaped plastic body and styled highlights give it an attractive and nice look.The black and white display is ideal for text, messages and simple pictures like logos and picture massages.The display resolution 128 x 160 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 G670 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, with the comfortable center keys, make the phone easer to dial.
Features
Dual band 900/1800 MHz connectivity isn't all the Pantech G670 has to offer: there's also support for GPRS, SMS, and a range of applications such as Java MIDP 1.0, 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 GPRS support is the fastest way to download files with your mobile, and spacious phone book.
As previously mentioned, the G670 is also equipped with a 0.3 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 1 MB of internal memory, which initially appears spacious, is quickly stretched to its limits. MP3 and MPEG4 are both formats which can be stored for playback on the Pantech G670.
Unfortunately, neither Memory Stick Duo format or any other method of memory expansion is supported by the G670, meaning users find themselves drawn by the MP3 playback capabilities will also quickly - and repeatedly - drawn to their PC and USB cable for updating ones playlist.
Performance
Audio quality on the G670 was crystal clear, and signal quality was good. The removable 700 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 105 minutes.
Availability
The Pantech G670 is now available throughout Europe in some language version.
Conclusion
Pantech's G670 is yet another model in a range of phones from experienced users from Pantech. A new compact design and a reduced sized battery - which avoids rendering a negative impact on battery life - ensures a thin and light phone which is ergonomically comfortable. |
