hello everybody I'm Lynne la from Cena here to show you guys the Pentek hotshot from Verizon now this touchscreen device doesn't require a data plan but you can browse the web check email and surf the ever-so-popular opera web browser if you do want data the handset has a 3.2 megapixel camera and a 2 gigabyte microSD card which can be replaced up to 32 gigs all of this is packaged in a very petite phone that weighs only 3 point 2 ounces it's screen is 3.2 inches and all together it's only a third of an inch thick with features like a customizable home screen and the ability to close and switch between apps you can see that this handset is trying to be a cross between a feature phone and a smart phone but for those who aren't technically savvy and don't need a lot of bells and whistles for their phones they may find the hotshot not very intuitive likewise those who are keen to current phone technology will find this device to Elementary the processor is also extremely sluggish and the touchscreen is not very responsive which makes texting frustrating in addition to that the camera lags a lot the full retail price of this phone is 260 9.99 if you sign with a two-year contract however it will drop down to $100 if you want the data plan it will cost you at least $10 per month and if you want Verizon Navigator that will cost you an extra $9.99 on top of that at these steep prices you're already encroaching on smartphone data plant territory so for those who want data it may be best to look for another phone again I'm Lin from CNN bringing you guys the pantech hotshot you
