Pantech announced the launch
of its IM-U170 handset, a slim phone fully wrapped with a metal case
as part of its design innovation initiatives.
The new IM-U170 clamshell handset features
enhanced both refinement and durability, coming in a full metal case
made of magnesium. The metallic keypad - beamed with EL light- is
another addition to the simple and refined design of the phone,
crowning the metallic touch of the phone. The new handset provides a
fresh and fun way to play an interactive game, which is the world's
first face-recognition mobile game in the industry. The built-in
camera traces the movement of the user's face to use for input
instead of controllers. Users can have their real-time faces while
playing games with the IM-U170.

The IM-U170 also focuses on its dynamic and
elegant Graphical User Interface(GUI). The animated user interface
includes mobile wallpapers and backgrounds, employing the Flash
technology. The dual camera -- a 2 mega-pixel camera and a VGA
camera -- mounted on the IM-U170 presents video telephony function.
They can also recognize a shape of face and automatically adjust it
to take the best photo when shooting.

Other highlights include a 2.2-inch QVGA LCD with
260,000 colors, 128 polyphonic ringtones and a multi-tasking MP3
player. Also it has document viewer functionality, enabling users to
scroll through the documents in MS office file format.
