Butterfly phone concept made by a high-schooler is gorgeous

Believe it or not, this exquisite phone concept design was made by a high school student. 15-year-old Andrew Kim posted his design on a forum recently and has understandably been getting great feedback. The Butterfly features a horizontal slider with dual AMOLED touchscreens. Unlike other horizontal sliding phones, Butterfly would feature a “slide ‘n tilt” feature, allowing the first screen to become your keypad. The phone would also feature a SD card slot, audio/video playback, and a side button which... Continue reading

Pantech Concept Phones make an appearance at CTIA

Seeing all of these Pantech concept phones in public is as rare as a understandable sentence coming from Ozzy Osbourne’s mouth. Meaning it almost never happens. Visitors of the CTIA conference were lucky enough to see a showcase of these concepts. Pantech says that not only is it rare for these phones to be shown together in public, but they aren’t together much period. We’re happy they are getting a chance to see their friends. The phones themselves are an... Continue reading

Pantech announces Korean version of W51PT: IM-U170

We posted a spy pic of the W51PT last month, and Pantech finally announced the Korean version of that at CES this week. We believe that the specifications are similar, EVDO support, 2.2″ QVGA screen, 2MP camera with autofocus, but we are still waiting for announcement from AU KDDI’s side in mid January, as well as the confirmation on its thickness (W51PT thinner than 15mm?). None the less, the real Korean model looks as good as what the pictures promised. For... Continue reading

The Gearfuse Plumbers got their hands on some leaked photos of what’s supposed to be Pantech’s (the largest phone manufacturer in Korea after Samsung and LG) unannounced W51PT for Japan AU KDDI’s EV-DO Rev.A network.

If all that is real, Pantech might... Continue reading

Pantech IM-S150 Phone: For when you want nothing less than Korean class

Pantech has announced it’s IM-S150, which seems to be geared towards the hipsters of Korea.

On the technical side, the IM-S150 features an advanced quality screen using dual TFT LCD displays which can display 260,000 colors, or... Continue reading

Pantech IM-R110 Cellphone, Swivel What Your Momma Gave You

One thing I’ve learned from watching The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air through my childhood, was the phrase “if you have it, flaunt it”. Much like Carlton and his crazy swiveling hip dance, the Pantech IM-R110 (another Korean made mobile) adds a crazy swivel screen to it’s crazy t-shaped body. Along with it’s love it or hate it design, comes the standards of Korean cellphones, such as DMB and 3D gaming capabilities, and also the ability to double as a portable... Continue reading
