What the Critics Are Saying...


Phone Scoop
Phone Scoop

I can only imagine that the Matrix Pro is going to appeal to a certain set of users. Those who very specifically want a non-touch version of Windows Mobile with access to a QWERTY keyboard and numeric dialpad for calling, the Matrix Pro is for you. Even if the form factor is what you're looking for...

In spite of the low-tech user interface, though, the Pantech Matrix Pro is a real fine smartphone. It could use a bit more application RAM, especially for those that wish to run higher-power third party web browsers, but the overall design and usability of the phone is good.
