Well, when it comes to smartphones, there are two classes of users – one
who loves the full touchscreen display and the kind of freedom that it
comes with, while another class would want something more proper – that
is, a full physical QWERTY keyboard so that you can have that comforting
tactile feedback that your fingers are so used to after all these years
of using an old school phone. Well, we are glad to say that the Pantech
Renue from AT&T delivers something from both worlds, although I
would not be bold enough to venture that it is the best of both worlds
considering the relatively small 3.2″ capacitive touchscreen display.
Well, one thing is for sure – if you happen to have a soft spot for
the environment, then you certainly will not be able to go wrong with
the Pantech Renue from AT&T. After all, it was constructed with 67%
of its components being recyclable, and despite its green accreditation,
that does not mean it is some sort of pansy device. No sir, it was
constructed to withstand everyday wear and tear.
Just how much does one need to fork out for the Pantech Renue? We are
looking at a highly affordable $69.99 with a new 2-year contract after a
mail-in rebate. As for the rest of its environmental friendly
accreditation, you would be pleased to hear that the packaging of the
Pantech Renue itself is made out of 95% recycled paper and non-POV soy
ink. Not only that, it is UL Environment certified and complies with
RoHS (Restriction of Hazardous Substances) standards to reduce exposure
to hazardous materials and harmful toxins including Lead (Pb), Mercury
(Hg), Cadmium (Cd), Hexavalent chromium (Cr6+), Polybrominated biphenyls
(PBB) and Polybrominated diphenyl ether (PBDE).
AS for the ahrdware specifications, there is the aforementioned full
QWERTY keyboard that slides open whenever you need to send out a text
message in a jiffy with adequate tactile feedback, having the Qualcomm
Brew Mobile Platform run on it, a 3-megapixel camera that is able to
capture video as well whenever the need arises, in addition to one-touch
access to social media, messaging, music, pictures and games.
