Pantech Marauder (Verizon Wireless)

 

Not only is it about time that we finally see devices natively ship with Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich, but it's also good to see inexpensive devices, like the Pantech Marauder, carry it too.

The Pantech Marauder rides on 4G LTE data speeds, has a user-friendly interface option for first-time smartphone users, and ships with Android 4.0.

The Marauder has a bulky design, a flat keyboard that's difficult to press, and a laggy processor.

Verizon's Pantech Marauder is a reasonably priced Android 4.0 handset that's perfect for beginners who want a keyboard and 4G LTE data speeds.

Pantech Marauder (Verizon Wireless)

 

Pantech was early to the Verizon 4G LTE party with the Breakout , Verizon's first LTE phone to debut with a sub-$100 price tag. Pantech has upped the ante with the Marauder , a keyboarded Android smartphone you can get for free with a new contract. It...

Runs Android 4.0 (Ice Cream Sandwich). Large keyboard. Good talk time. Inexpensive

Big and bulky. Mediocre camera. Flat keyboard keys

If you don't want to pony up the money for a Motorola Droid 4, the Pantech Marauder is a decent bet for an inexpensive messaging smartphone.

You can send and receive picture messages.

 

To send and receive picture messages on this phone, go to "Messaging". Pull down the top of the screen (or slide it...whatever you call it). On the "Quick on/off" just tap the "Data" and it should turn orange, which means that it is on. Then you can...

Disappointing

 

There are really only a couple good things about this phone, but the bad things extremely outweigh them in every way. One of the most important things is that this phone barely has any internal space and even if you put in a micro-sd card, there is no...

finally an entry-level Android for those challenged!

 

My father was an electrical engineer but any cell phone beyond a basic flip-phone and all computers frazzled him to no end. Step in my husband, he's quite technically savvy yet he suffered partial paralysis on one side affecting not just his leg but...
