Sound and Connectivity
The Pantech G500 lacks a loudspeaker and a standard 3.5mm headphone jack, limiting the audio options. It compensates with vibration alerts and downloadable polyphonic ringtones. On the connectivity front, the phone does not support modern features like Bluetooth, WLAN, or GPS, which confines its data-sharing capabilities predominantly to network messages like SMS, EMS, and MMS. Additionally, it features a WAP 1.2.1 browser, allowing minimal web activities on a basic level.
