Pantech. You may have heard of this South Korean company, maybe not. Anyway, Pantech is about to enter the U.S. market with a different tablet (or the promise of being different) of what we have seen so far. Dual-core, with a camera recording in Full HD, and most importantly, waterproof.
The Pantech Element is ready to be presented at the CES 2012, which takes place next week in Las Vegas. The site BGR found that the device will run Android 3.2 (Honeycomb), although the Ice Cream Sandwich is there for some companies use - legend has it that the latest version of Android is present in 0.6% of the devices currently.
Pantech Element
Among the physical attributes of the device can highlight the 8-inch display, a 2 megapixel front camera (records video in 720p), rear camera of 5 megapixels (1080p), all duly protected from water. The inner beauty of the Element comes down to dual-core 1.5 GHz (no information about the manufacturer so far) and 16 GB of internal storage. No word on RAM.
By "waterproof", understand that the device can not be immersed. In addition, all entries must be sealed, more or less as with the Motorola Defy. The difference is that the Defy may be a few inches under water, as we find ourselves in the review published by TB.
Pantech Group works closely in partnership with operators. For now, what is known is that AT & T U.S. training vendors to show the operation and eventually make customers buy the tablet. For the price of U.S. $ 299 it will come out with two-year contract. More expensive, the Element has unlocked priced at $ 499 (I will not compare with iPad or other Android tablets, leave the job because of you).
