Pantech Breakout Rated 3.5 out of 5 by Wireless and Mobile News' Review of Reviews

The Pantech Breakout was called the most affordable 4G LTE smartphone on Verizon Wireless. For $49.99, the Pantech Breakout is packed with many features and if you buy one, you can get on free. Along with the double data deal running, it makes for a very reasonable price for a reasonably good smartphone. Verizon Wireless has sweetened the deal evern further, when you use the exclusive code:PRCODEVZW. and wwitch to Verizon, you can get a FREE 4G Pantech Breakout or $50 off select deevices.

We've had the pleasure of using a Pantech Breakout over the holidays, it kept its pace with other smartphones, we have tested. The Pantech Breakout is good solid smartphone. Many reviewers called it mid-level. Mid-level today was top of the line a few months ago.

Pantech Breakout to Breakout on Verizon 4G LTE 9/22 for $99

While the Droid Bionic is the most powerful 4G LTE and most expensive smartphone on the Verizon wireless network, the Pantech Breakout will be the cheapest when it is released on September 22, this Thursday for $99 after a rebate with a contract.

The Pantech Breakout will have the same expected download speeds of the other Verizon 4G LTE smartphones with expected download speeds of 5 to 12Mbps and upload speeds of 2 to 5Mbps in 4G mobile broadband coverage areas.

The Pantech Breakout ships with Android 2.3 Gingerbread, 1GHz processor, 4"(480x800) touchscreen, mobile hotspots (up to 10), 5MP camera, front-facing camera, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, 8GB preinstalled microSD. It has added Pantech widgets allow it to be connected to the DLNA devices such as TVs via DLNA.

We checked with Pantech, the battery is 1500mAh which puts it with 100mAh more than the first Verizon 4G LTE smartphone, the HTC ThunderBolt that has 1400mAh battery but a slightly bigger 4.3" touchscreen, 8MP camera and kickstand. With a smaller screen, the Pantech Breakout will likely use less battery power.
