Slider Hinge Weak February 27, 2008 J. Lattanzio 5 out of 8 found this review helpful
Do not buy this phone. The slider hinge breaks easily and ATT will not replace or fix the phone. I sent the phone in and they charged me $300.00 for a new one through their exchange by mail program. A total rip-off.

There are many pros and cons to the Pantech Duo. Unfortunately, there are probably more cons than pros. PROS - The keyboard feature is amazing. It's great for people that love to text. - The Internet feature is handy. I can look up the weather, go on myspace, and look for directions or maps on mapquest. - You get a couple entertaining games with the phone. - There's a calander that you can write upcoming appointments in and the appointments for that day or the next day will show up on the homescreen (for those people that are forgetful and need to be reminded often). - There are many options for the homescreen layout. CONS- - Bad sound quality. Even when the volume is all the way up, I can't hear the person I'm talking to well. - Even if you have no intention of using the Internet, you have to pay $30 a month for the Internet option. - When you change the homescreen layout, you probably won't realize you have texts, missed calls, or voicemails because it's not noticable on the screen. I ended up missing a call for a job interview and I didn't realize it for days. - There's other little quirks that bother me but probably nobody else, such as the inability to edit phone numbers without saving them and not being able to see the time on text messages or recent calls. - The Internet option is great, like I said, but it takes awhile to do anything on the Internet because computer screens are huge and cell phone screens are so small, making it a little bit slower and more difficult to use. I would recommend this phone to somebody that texts a lot, because of the keyboard feature. I would not recomend this phone to someone that talks on the phone a lot, because the sound quality sucks. Also, if you don't want the Internet option, I recommend looking for another phone. You don't want to waste $30 a month if you're not going to use the Internet. Overall, it was kind of a disappointment.
pantech c810 duo May 19, 2008 T. Dillon (Hattiesburg, Mississippi, USA) 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
I have had this phone for a month. This is a great smart phone . Web download times are great. The phone switches to landscape view with in 2 seconds not instantly, but not bad either. The color on both screens is great. Although the phone only has a 1.3 mega piexel camera it takes pretty good pictures.The phone can be set to have your e-mail come to your phone almost as soon as it reaches your work/personal e-mail accounts. The dual slide function is great. The phone overall seems pretty solid mechanically. I have dropped the phone several times and have had no problems with it. CONS: The battery life leaves much to be desired. If I use the phone a lot, I have to charge the phone daily, sometimes twice a day. If I only use the phone for conversation the battery may last 2 days at most.
C810 Duo February 11, 2008 T Dabney (Tampa FL USA) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
Great Phone!! PROS: Very cool. Crowd Pleaser. Nice Photo quality. Memory card option is awesome. I love having music without the pod. Sync is easy. Downloaded google maps and use regularly. Very nice to have. Internet is amazing! Reasonable reception. CONS: Freezes from time to time. (won't recieve calls or turn off but reg OS still works) But I take the battery out and it works great again. Dust has gotten under the exterior portion of the screen. Dusty screen drives me nuts! Wish i could use my own songs as alarm tones. Wish I could delete the pointless games that come preinstalled. Email hard to set-up for the unsavy. OverAll: Worth the money. Nice phone. Cool design. Would buy again!
Like it, but don't LOVE it. February 23, 2008 Patrick T. Opinaldo (PA) 2 out of 5 found this review helpful
Is this a brand new phone or a refurb? Is it supposed to slide really really easily??? I like that it has all the features i want in phone. I've had for a month or so, and its already malfunctioning. When its in the normal position, none of the buttons work, unless i slide it. then it works. I like the dual slider. i text a lot, so the keyboard is a big help, even though it took some getting used to.
