Awesome for texting, horrible for talking :(
When I bought this phone I read all the reviews and decided that I would give it a shot even though people complained of the voice quality. I figured I will text most of the time anyways, so I can deal with a little bit of diminished voice clarity. Two days after I bought the phone, I was back at AT&T exchanging it for a blackberry pearl which I love! The duo was really slick for texting and I loved windows mobile, but trying to have a conversation on the phone was frustrating and pointless. If you are solely a texting person this phone is great for that, but even occasional phone conversations will soon drive you crazy! Best of luck!

Do not buy this phone!
We bought 3 of these phones. We've only had the phones for 4 months, and I've already had to replace my daughters phone twice for just shutting down ... and not being able to ever turn back on ... it was never dropped. When I first got my phone receiving text and picture messages was really fast. However, now it takes 2 days to download picture messages ... and when I try and retrieve a normal text message .. the phone freezes up on me. My husbands phone is working fine. But given the 2 out of 3 ratio of the same phones not working ... I wouldn't trust being the 33% person. And, of course ... this is only after 4 months of having the phone. I'm sure its just a matter of a month or so, before we'll have to replace his too!

Great 3G - Windows Mobile 6 Experience
I have had a great time with the phone... got it about a month ago. I hesitated due to poor reviews I had read, but when I lost my 2125 again I upgraded. It has really surpassed my expectations. Looking forward to the 6.1 update.

Looks good on the outside.
The phone is very stylish and wows spectaters who have never seen the phone before. But for you, your battery will be dead by the end of the day and good luck typing text messages if you have large fingers. The Duo is very enjoyable to use and the features matches the average person's needs. However, some phone technicians say that this phone gives them more trouble than all the rest.
This phone really does suck. I had it for 6 weeks when the LCD screen cracked, while the phone was in my pocket at work all day! When I contacted Pantech they basically had the attitude of oh well that's too bad. The guy on the phone actually told me that I must have dropped it or something even though I swore that I hadn't. Then they tried to justify it by saying that it has a very large LCD screen. But as far as I know it's not any larger than the iPhone or Sidekick.
Anyway the repairs for the phone came to $100! That's more than I paid for the phone so I decided not to repair it but instead just buy another phone- hopefully one that's not as fragile as the pantech duo.

I wanted to love this phone!
This phone was a big disappointment. I've had to replace my phone 3 times due to poor sound quality or the phone just quitting on me. I love the form factor (other than the keyboard being a bit cramped for my big fingers) but the phone itself leaves a lot to be desired. Poor sound quality, drops calls all the time, and unreliable performance. Pass this one up!
had the pantech duo for 4 months, broke down, ATT replaced with a refurbished one. No battery life, poor photos, and phone akward to use. Bought 2 ATT Tilt for sons at the same time , much better phone. No problems with Tilt a sturdier phone with better features.

Smartphone - best yet! (non-touch)
First, I'm amazed at all the non sequitur comments, i.e. I bought mine on ebay and can't get warranty replacements from AT&T. DUH! Or that the battery life doesn't last as long as my pocket watch. If you're going to have a cellphone for at least a year, then do your homework and look at the mfg. specs. Check the review sites, compare, know what you're getting. If the device doesn't live-up to those expectations, then complain at will. And as one comment mentioned, there are third-party software packages that can improve the experience - thank you Handango :)
Now about the Pantech C810 duo... I don't have one... BUT I have to support several people that do use them. And they love them! Realize that this device is a Windows Mobile smartphone, hence a PDA with calling capability. Yes, batteries are short-lived, but compared to the TILT/TyTN/etc it's probably longer on average. If it locks-up, maybe you didn't close applications and left a bunch of them running in the background (which will bring any device to its knees). I have several users who need access to corporate email / calendar / contacts, but don't want the hassle of blackberries. And they don't care a lot about internet - just enough to check the headlines and weather forecast now and then. So ditching the touchscreen was not a total loss. Besides, those were the same people who hated the on-screen dialpad and wanted a fast (traditional) dialing method. That is the biggest advantage of this device, compared to other smartphones. (And who likes the miniscule buttons on the MotoQ / Blackjack / Palms anyway?) I've had two replacements - one for call stability and another for a poor speaker (distortion, low volume), but in both cases I had the replacement in hand the very next day.
You will not find a better smartphone in such an efficient package anywhere. And if you hate on-screen dialing, but have to have email access & qwerty keyboard, then look no further. So charge the phone when you sleep at night and be happy!
The size and keyboard is great. The slide out feature is great. The sound quality is not very good but comes through better when using a hands free device. The picture quality is also not very good. I would only buy again if there was no comparable AT&T product which had the same features because the sound quality thing is a big hurdle to jump....Also I have not been able to get mine to pair with the Jabra SP5050 bluetooth speakerphone....which is too bad because I really like the speakerphone.
I've been using it for weeks now and I must say, I've impressed by it. It can do everything I want it to, and everybody wants to see if when I flip it out. I recommend it whole heartedly.

The phone part doesn't work for me!
I have had this phone for 6 months now. I love the qwerty keyboard and the ability to receive my email on this phone. That function is perfect. The phone part however has only worked 5% of the time and I am beyond frustrated. When I call AT&T they have given me every excuse except exchange the phone or fixing it. If you want this phone to actually talk on it, don't buy it. Every call ends right after I dial and the phone hardly ever rings, my calls go directly to voice mail. If I do get through, the person is mumbled. I don't think the network or it being Windows based is ever in-synch. I just plain give up!

It died after 10 days
I purchased the phone from EBay Express for my teenage daughter 10 days ago for over $325.00. We are not yet in the period of our 2 year phone contract therefore this phone would have cost $450.00 through the AT&T store. The phone was brand new (not reburbished) and exactly what we expected in size and appearance. My daughter loved the Qwerty keyboard, and was more then pleased with the look and style of the phone. The phone however was extremely slow with transmitting text messages and super slow with any photo downloading or attempts to navigate on the internet.
We have now had the phone and entire 10 days and it has completely shut down and does not work at all. I am in the process of trying to get reimbursment through pay pal from my ebay purchase. I would warn anybody who purchases this phone from a non AT&T dealer, that you lose your "return it to the store" option when you do not purchase it direct from the store. I am not sure how the process works through Amazon, but I want to say "buyer beware".. The phone is super cute, but not very hardy.
There are many pros and cons to the Pantech Duo. Unfortunately, there are probably more cons than pros.
PROS
- The keyboard feature is amazing. It's great for people that love to text.
- The Internet feature is handy. I can look up the weather, go on myspace, and look for directions or maps on mapquest.
- You get a couple entertaining games with the phone.
- There's a calander that you can write upcoming appointments in and the appointments for that day or the next day will show up on the homescreen (for those people that are forgetful and need to be reminded often).
- There are many options for the homescreen layout.
CONS-
- Bad sound quality. Even when the volume is all the way up, I can't hear the person I'm talking to well.
- Even if you have no intention of using the Internet, you have to pay $30 a month for the Internet option.
- When you change the homescreen layout, you probably won't realize you have texts, missed calls, or voicemails because it's not noticable on the screen. I ended up missing a call for a job interview and I didn't realize it for days.
- There's other little quirks that bother me but probably nobody else, such as the inability to edit phone numbers without saving them and not being able to see the time on text messages or recent calls.
- The Internet option is great, like I said, but it takes awhile to do anything on the Internet because computer screens are huge and cell phone screens are so small, making it a little bit slower and more difficult to use.
I would recommend this phone to somebody that texts a lot, because of the keyboard feature. I would not recomend this phone to someone that talks on the phone a lot, because the sound quality sucks. Also, if you don't want the Internet option, I recommend looking for another phone. You don't want to waste $30 a month if you're not going to use the Internet.
Overall, it was kind of a disappointment.

A nice little phone
I purchased this phone for my wife (the red Duo) to help her stay organized. And so far she loves it. We haven't experienced any of the issues other reviews noted. My wife hasn't had any major complaints.
This is a Smartphone and does not have a touch screen, but once you get used to the navigation methodology of smart phones you won't think twice about it. The only complaint I have is there does not appear to be a light to indicate the caps lock or the function lock is on. When trying to switch from inputting numbers (using the keyboard) to letter the function key stays locked. This is more than likely a lack of familiarity with this functionality, but it didn't seem to be intuitive.
You'll have a little harder time finding software for the Smartphone, but there is some great stuff out there. Like any device the software you install will make a huge difference in its usability. I would suggest using SBSH Facade, Pocket Informant, and Pocket Quickens, to name a few.
If you are a power user, you will probably get a little frustrated with this device. You are limited to microSD cards (and not microSDHC cards) so you are limited to 2 GB of extra storage. For most users this isn't an issue, but if you want to store tons of music and movies you may need to look else where.
For my wife and most users this is a great phone, and I would recommend it. But if you are a power user you may want to look at the Tilt or something similar.
I have had this phone for a month. This is a great smart phone .
Web download times are great. The phone switches to landscape view with in 2 seconds not instantly, but not bad either. The color on both screens is great. Although the phone only has a 1.3 mega piexel camera
it takes pretty good pictures.The phone can be set to have your e-mail
come to your phone almost as soon as it reaches your work/personal
e-mail accounts. The dual slide function is great. The phone overall
seems pretty solid mechanically. I have dropped the phone several times
and have had no problems with it.
CONS: The battery life leaves much to be desired. If I use the phone
a lot, I have to charge the phone daily, sometimes twice a day. If I
only use the phone for conversation the battery may last 2 days at most.
First, I would like to state that I did not buy this from Amazon.com, but from AT&T. This review is more about the phone itself with a few snippits about phone service.
Overall, I really like this phone. I am not much of a texting person, but I found the pad useful for other things such as entering contacts. My fiance has stated that he found the MS programs very useful for entering his grades (he's a teacher) and that has saved him some time.
The picture quality is not wonderful with this phone. My main issue, actually, was just getting the picture feature to turn on. I need to hold down and hit the button a few times to get the camera to turn on, and I love taking photos on my phone. They could work to improve this feature.
My fiance and I bought the family plan from AT&T. So far, I have not been able to send him a text, and the book does not state anything about texting other then the instructions for doing so. We did not buy a texting plan, but I was under the assumption that we would be charged per text message. Need to contact AT&T about this.
The sound is alright on this phone. Not the best, but it works very well for what we need. At least, unlike my previous T-Mobile with Razor phone, we can contact each other when we're on the bus (could not get through/ would not ring with my previous plan). It sounds just a little bit more muffled when doing this, but we can fully understand each other in this situation.
Overall, I am finding this phone to my needs and am happy with the purchase.

good buy for those who text frequently
I bought my 18-year-old daughter this phone to replace a Razor so she could text more easily. She has had it for 6 months and LOVES it. Very easy to use as a "texting tool". She does not connect to the internet on it. The smaller size is nice, it fits well in a pocket.
I then bought the phone for my 16-year old son, and had a different experience. After 25 days, we returned it because it froze frequently, and would not receive phone calls/texts occasionally even with full bars of service. He regularly had to remove the battery and put it back in to reset it. The new replacement pantech duo phone has worked great, no problems. He has had this one for 2 months.
I am guessing that maybe there are some duds out there, so just make sure you can exchange it before you plunk down your money. (I purchased mine through an AT&T store and had no problem with the return.)

Slider Hinge Weak
Do not buy this phone. The slider hinge breaks easily and ATT will not replace or fix the phone.
I sent the phone in and they charged me $300.00 for a new one through their exchange by mail program.
A total rip-off.

Like it, but don't LOVE it.
Is this a brand new phone or a refurb? Is it supposed to slide really really easily??? I like that it has all the features i want in phone. I've had for a month or so, and its already malfunctioning. When its in the normal position, none of the buttons work, unless i slide it. then it works. I like the dual slider. i text a lot, so the keyboard is a big help, even though it took some getting used to.
Great Phone!!
PROS:
Very cool. Crowd Pleaser. Nice Photo quality. Memory card option is awesome. I love having music without the pod. Sync is easy. Downloaded google maps and use regularly. Very nice to have. Internet is amazing! Reasonable reception.
CONS:
Freezes from time to time. (won't recieve calls or turn off but reg OS still works) But I take the battery out and it works great again.
Dust has gotten under the exterior portion of the screen. Dusty screen drives me nuts! Wish i could use my own songs as alarm tones. Wish I could delete the pointless games that come preinstalled. Email hard to set-up for the unsavy.
OverAll:
Worth the money. Nice phone. Cool design. Would buy again!
This phone is one of the best phones I have ever used.
The features on this phone make life a lot easier because it's like a PDA but smaller and a phone. Now, I am not a business person on the go, but I'm a full time student and working 30 hours a week, so things can get pretty crazy for me. This phone has helped with scheduling my classes, work , and time set aside for homework.
If I had to name one problem, it would be that when I first received this phone, I got a faulty one. When I went to the settings menu, I found codes instead recognizable language. So, I returned it and AT&T gave me a new one with no hassle at all.
Some people have given this phone bad reviews and that's their opinion. I think they don't like this phone because they are too used to their old phone and too stubborn to break their shell and try something new. My point is this, if you're looking for a new phone and you want your day to flow with easy, give this phone a try.

Good design, poor call quality/reception
I purchased this phone to replace my aging Treo 650. I loved the size and the idea of having 2 keypads, as I'm a text-aholic and can't text or email using T9. After I ordered the phone and started using it, it became quite obvious that the phone was not going to be a good replacement. The qwerty keyboard is nice, but for big fingers, not so good. The keys are flat, and do not really give a lot of feedback.
Concerning call quality and reception, I am on call and have to have my phone as this is my primary phone. I need a phone that is going to receive a signal at least 90% of the time; since I know that cellular service is spotty at best even here in DC, I don't really expect more. I can't recall the Duo getting a quality signal inside my office or condo without me having to stand next to the window. This didn't work very well because my bedroom is located on the interior of the building and I needed the phone to be at my side while sleeping.
After 2 weeks, I returned the phone and went back to my Treo until I find a suitable replacement.

good idea, but not a good product
Let me first start off by saying I LOVE AT&T- I love their services, I love their customer service, they have great phones. I was trying to switch over from Sprint. Sprint sucks. their customer service is horrific, I've had nothing but problems, and most of their phones fall short of the current technology.
Secondly, IF YOU BUY CELL PHONES WITH SERVICE FROM AMAZON, YOU CANNOT EXCHANGE THEM. You can return them for a refund, your account will remain active with the cellular carrier you chose, but you cannot exchange the phone through Amazon, and you have to close the cell account, return the phones and wait 60 days before ordering cells with service from Amazon.com again, if you decide to do so. I will not.
but back to the Duo. we've had this phone since Jan 2, 2008. they are being returned, without exchange mind you.
I have a Treo 700wx and my daughter has the Rumor with Sprint. she loves her slide-out QWERTY and YIM, and I was envious of that- I have a full QWERTY, but no java support on WM5 for instant messaging services (I can't even send picture text messages without 3rd-party software). we wanted to switch over to AT&T for several reasons, and the Duo seemed like a good match for the both of us. so I ordered 2 of them through Amazon. I should have listened to the reviews.
in our opinion, the Duo is small in size, difficult to handle, and the buttons are small as well as difficult to manage. the slide-out QWERTY is the second "layer" and it is not hard to slide out- actually, it's hard to make sure it doesn't! the 12-key pad has a locking to it, to avoid accidental sliding, unlike the QWERTY. in all, it felt like with one drop on the carpet, this thing would break into it's three layers, and you feel that sensation while in your hand.
the QWERTY keys are square, rubbery and flush with the tray, so it is difficult to type with. I had fun playing with it, but my daughter was almost crying because she wanted her Rumor back. she really did not like this phone. she thought she was going to break it.
I'm a multi-tasker, and I could not hold the phone between my ear and shoulder. the way the slider is, there's not enough there to hold onto this way. I hadn't investigated enough to know how to turn the speaker phone on.
calls sounded muffled on both mine and my daughter's. even with the volume all the way up, it was hard to hear whomever we were speaking to. we checked with AT&T to see if it was the service area, but it was not.
it is attractive to look at, until you see the finger smudges all over. the camera was decent. the colors and screen clarity are great, but the screen is small to me. great AT&T services to use the internet, instant messaging, etc.. WM6, which is great, but you cannot customize the today screen with what *you* want on it, unlike my Treo with WM5.
so we're back with our Sprint phones for the time being, until all this mess gets straightened out with Amazon, so we can have our phone numbers ported back on phones we really want, with an excellent service provider.

Great for a person on the go!
I purchased this phone after reading mixed reviews.. I am glad that I followed my gut on this one and got one.. Other phones promise, but this one delivers.. The bluetooth is solid, using the device for email and messaging is the easiest I have ever experienced. I get service with this phone in areas where my other phones wouldnt.. the QWERTY is very usable and the phone is very solid.. I have dropped mine numerous times and it still works perfectly... I am getting my husband one for his bithday since he is always asking to use mine!!!

Make sure you can return this item
I purchased the Pantech Duo model C810 because of the qwerty keyboard feature. That part of it worked fine. The rest of it I was more than a little disappointed in.
MY BIGGEST COMPLAINT is the sound quality of a normal voice conversation. It was extremely muffled and at times unintelligible.
QWERTY KEYBOARD: This is a nice feature if you send a lot of text or typing. The layout is, of course, small and takes some practice to get the right keys. It is still better than tapping out on a numerical layout.
BLUETOOTH: I tried to use bluetooth to transfer my ringtones from my other phone and received an error message stating that "was not supported". Although it did come with a data cable in the box to transfer them from a computer.
MENUS: It is easy to get lost in the menus. It took quite a while to even find where to change certain options or how to set ringtones. I feel I am very knowledgeable on with electronics. I have had and set up many different cell phones by several different manufacturers. With that said, I quickly became lost in the menus.
I will be returning this phone and do not recommend it if your primary use for it is voice communication.
