Pantech Pursuit Cell Phone Review–You Can Do Better
The folks out at Wirefly sent me another exciting cell phone, the Pantech Pursuit. I actually enjoyed my experience with it, because it’s so compact that it seems a bit on the futuristic side.
The Pantech Pursuit is a slider-style cell phone with QWERTY keyboard, 3G wireless, a two megapixel camera, music player, Bluetooth connectivity, a six hundred entry phone book, speakerphone, alarm clock, calendar, world clock, calculator, stopwatch, timer, GPS, sketchpad, mobile web, mobile email, a variety of AT&T specific services like the cloud-dependent AT&T Address Book and AT&T Online Locker, a battery that yields about three hours of talk time on a single cell phone charge and a microSD card for added storage space.
Like I said in the beginning, the Pantech Pursuit is a REALLY compact cell phone. It’s almost too small for my hand, but still, I like it. I also definitely like the vibrating touchscreen controls–press a button and it shakes in confirmation. Oh, sure, it doesn’t exactly offer anything fantastic like some phones–this will never be called an iPhone killer–but it’s still a solid if somewhat basic phone. And the small screen adds to the compact nature of the phone but it makes for an unpleasant user experience.
You can do better than the mixed-bag that is the Pantech Pursuit, but if you do go with this one, you shouldn’t be terribly disappointed. Wirefly, meanwhile, is offering this one up at $229.99, unless you’re a new or existing AT&T customer. Then it’s free.
The Good
Ultracompact design
Plenty of features
Tactile feedback
