Review: Pantech Breakout for Verizon Wireless
The calling and contact applications of the Pantech Breakout work well together to make reaching out to friends, family, and loved ones a breeze, though they will look familiar to anyone who has used an Android device before.
As noted, you can go straight from the lock screen to the phone app by using the little shortcut. This is a great feature when you need to make a call in a hurry. The phone application itself has been given its own appearance, but has the same underlying architecture as other Android handsets. In-call features include mute, speakerphone, adding a line, and sending to Bluetooth.
The contact application syncs well with Gmail, Exchange, Facebook, Twitter, and other contact databases. You can merge the data or leave it all separate. From the contact app, it's a cinch to access the recent interactions you've head with your contacts from their info card. I particularly like how you can swipe left or right from the contact app to see shortcuts to the phone app or messaging app.
As with most Android devices, you can add contact short cuts directly to the home screen panels, which is the quickest way to reach your favorite people.
