Best buy Unlocked Pantech Matrix C740 BLK Qwerty Dual Slide Phone

If you are a fan of compact, handy phones packed in with loads of features and also high on functionality and style, then the new Pantech Matrix C740 for AT&T is just what the doctor ordered. The phone has a one of a kind dual-sliding double-keypad feature that allows you to use both the QWERTY and the regular numeric keypad. The battery type of the Pantech matrix C740 is Lithium-ion. Users can get a talk time of up to 180 minutes and a standby time of up to 10.5 days.The Pantech Matrix C740 comes with a quad band GSM coverage (850/900/1800/1900 MHZ) and data download speeds from 3G (on AT&T’s HSDPA data networks), HSDPA (Average speed of 700 Kbps), and EDGE (up to 144 kbps) cellular networks. Location services like Google Maps are built into the GPS receiver.

The build quality on the Matrix is pretty good, and the handset is stylish looking, if a bit blockish. We weren't horribly impressed with either the keypad or the keyboard, but having both options available is a very nice thing. The only real issue with the QWERTY keyboard is the layout, since it offers only 3 rows of keys. That messes with the positioning of the keys and prevents it from being laid out exactly like a normal keyboard. But otherwise, it worked pretty well. The 12 key keypad, on the other hand, just didn't offer the best feel.

The Matrix comes with a colorful 2.2 inches display with over 262,000 colors. The phone measures 4.0 in x 2.0 in x 0.8 inches and contains a round wheel for scrolling up and down, send and end keys, navigation keys along with a music key to access music features. The integrated speakerphones make handsfree communication oh so easy. With the Bluetooth profile (A2DP), one can stream music to any compatible Bluetooth-enabled stereo headphones. Through Bluetooth or USB you can connect to your laptop and access the web, send or receive emails, have dial-up networking and access files from a server.
