Design and Build
In terms of design, the Pantech Renue stands out with its compact dimensions of 99 x 63 x 12 mm and lightweight nature, tipping the scales at 128 grams. This made it an easily portable device, comfortably fitting into pockets. The robust build and mini-SIM design were typical of the era and catered well to users who appreciated tactile and intuitive functionality. Its QWERTY keyboard was a significant feature, aimed at enhancing the texting experience with physical buttons for ease and speed, a boon for those not entirely convinced by the sole use of touch screens.
