Pharos Traveler GPS 137 (unlocked) review:

 

Editors' note: The Pharos Traveler 137 shares similar features to the Pharos Traveler 127. For this review, we will be focusing on the different design and performance. For more details on the phone's features, please read our full review of the Pharos...

The Pharos Traveler 137 features a bright touch screen and ships with navigation software and maps, so there's no need for a location-based service. The smartphone also offers 3G support, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and a 5-megapixel camera.

The Traveler 137 is sluggish. The navigation software is unintuitive and didn't always provide accurate directions.

While better designed than the Traveler 127, the Pharos Traveler 137 still suffers from performance and navigation issues.

Runs a little hot. Have had it shutdown on me a couple times while running processor intensive program ; Has gone through 3 ROM updates since release (they finally got a very functional build with the last update). If you don't want to flash your phone...
