Review: Pantech Crossover

Form Basics Extras Video Wrap-Up Comments 2

Calls

The Crossover defaults to the stock calling and contact applications. It looks different only because Pantech chose to add a splash of color (green and blue) to the dialpad.

Calls are easily swapped, sent to the speakerphone, sent to Bluetooth headsets, and placed on mute. The Crossover doesn't break any new ground in terms of phone calling prowess.

Contacts

The contacts application is the stock Android app, but again has been colored in a bit by Pantech to match the Crossover's overall theme. The Crossover supports the typical list of contact databases, such as Exchange, Gmail, Yahoo Mail and so on. It will also add your Facebook friends if you wish.

As with all Android handsets, the calling and contact applications continue to work well together.
