Pantech Duo says, “nice to meet you”

There are a couple things not confirmed ever since we broke the Pantech C810 Duo story. For starters, we knew it would have 3G but what kind of 3G? Well friends, it turned out to be HSDPA. Yeah! AT&T has nabbed the Pantech Duo as a "lifetime exclusive", and it will sport a 1.3 megapixel camera. The rest of the usual specs we were aware of —  Windows Mobile 6 Standard — unique dual sliding form-factor, and a $249.99 price point with 2 year agreement. The launch date for the Duo is supposed to be "late September", so you better hurry on down to your AT&T store when the time comes. We got’s a feeling these won’t stay stocked for long…Full product shot after the jump!

Thanks, Jay L!

    Yeah this phone is great until you need to buy a part for it. My phone was stolen and recovered without a battery or back cover and no one (internet, At&t salesman, customer service) can tell me where to buy a new battery or battery cover. Its like the million dollar question…can anyone help?????????

    I love this phone except when using it for what I bought it for…Talking on it. I hear a slightly muffled conversation unless the other person is talking loudly and directly into their phone but at the other end they say they hear me fine. Thinking about returning it back in for a Blackberry.

    Barb, how about returning it for one that works? My wife and I both have Duo’s and have no problems with calls. This is a neat little phone!

    I’ve had this phone for just over two weeks now. Highly impressed with all the features. My previous phone was a Nextel i930 Smartphone with Windows Smartphone 2003. This phone is overall much smaller, lighter, and much, much smarter. Not one soul has mentioned the voice recognition ability. Press your Voice Record button and ask your phone for the time, date, battery status, etc. This is one slick phone! Not to mention AT&T’s service is much better than Nextel ever was……….

    hey all. i actually work for pantech, and have pretty much gone over all the posts. we will be soon coming out with a patch for all those who are having bluetooth problems, sorry for that. also, all accessories should be available for purchase on the AT&T website. if not, i found this cool website that seems to have all the accessories u could ask for on a Duo. “http://www.daydeal.com/home.php?cat=3061″ they even have headphones that’ll plug directly into the phone, rather than having to use the connector. sorry for all those who feel that the phone is cheap and whatnot. this was our first high-end phone that was made for the US. we got our foot in the door with the low end phones. but look out for new and improved phones to come out soon. we’ll still carry the lower end phones, but are definitely branching out to the high end market! and remember to always go into task manager and stop programs/applications when you’re not using them. this will help in conserving battery.

    Apparently no one has purchased this phone. I unfortunately did. One month after I received the phone which cost me $299.99, it locked up and erased my SIM card. I had to call and get a new one and I have to reset the battery every week because it locks up on me. The sound quality is horrible. The only good thing about the phone is the QWERTY keyboard.

    Wow this phone is ridiculously annoying. Or maybe its the network. I would not recommend – I have to spend literally about twenty minutes waiting for a split second when the 3G turns into a G or E, then I can make calls and send texts. Everything else, I get rejected immediately even if I have full reception. What a bunch of bulls**t – this is completely unacceptable and moves beyond simply inconveniencing me – it’s actually f***ing up my life.
