Pantech Pursuit II Review

Online, September 16, 2011 (Newswire.com) - The Pantech Pursuit II is the next generation to the Pantech Pursuit, a fun and inventive phone designed for phone calls and text messaging. With a 2.8 inch touch screen measuring 3.98 by 2.4 by 0.59 inches, it's small and compact, great for someone who needs a simple phone that's fun to use. The screen is capacitive and very responsive. There are 3 home screens, 2 which are customizable. The main screen displays the time and date, the second screen is for apps and widgets and the third is for your contacts. You can add as many shortcuts and widgets to the second home screen as you want, as you're not limited by the screen size. The physical keyboard slides vertically and is a full QWERTY keyboard and although it's a vertical keypad, it's roomy and the keys are domed, making it easy to type quickly and accurately.

There is a digital phone dialer that can double to type messages with T9 predictive text. The Pursuit II has text messaging, instant messaging and email options. The AT&T SocialHub app is preloaded, giving you access to all your social media needs. It has a 2 megapixel camera that takes great pictures and a multimedia player for your music and video needs.

You also have access to your email anytime, anywhere. The multimedia player can play anything. Fill up to a 32GB memory card with music, videos, pictures from your 2 megapixel camera and apps.

We recommend having a Bluetooth hands free device, as it allows you to connect to phone calls without having to be holding your phone. This is especially useful in the car, where in many states you're required to have a hands free device while driving.

With its attractive and user-friendly design, the Jabra BT2045 makes wireless calling easy.

We also recommend having a back up power supply, as the Pursuit II has a rated talk time of 3 hours and 10.4 days of standby time.
