Pantech Vega R3 is a powerful, Korea-bound phablet

Pantech unveiled a powerful phablet in its own backyard – Vega R3. The device rocks a 5.3-inch IPS-based LCD screen while getting its power from Qualcomm’s quad-core Snapdragon S4 Pro processor (just like the LG Optimus G). But that’s not all – this big fella also packs 2GB of RAM and a 13-megapixel camera, effectively making it the best phablet device ever. Too bad it won’t leave the shores of Korean peninsula. South Koreans, on the other hand, can pick it up on any of their three major carriers starting today, September 25th.

When it comes to preloaded software, Pantech talks about Text Action that allows handwritten content to be imported into messaging; Best Face which allows you to select the best facial feature from multiple photos; Canvas Talk – for sending texts or images during a voice call; Mini-window; support for Vega Cloud Live and Vega Media Live. Awesome!

Dusan Belic

Dusan has been using smartphones since their introduction and is now following the latest trends in the industry. The "convergence" is what he's most excited about, and writing about it is the next logical thing to do. He thinks that using a smartphone is what everyone who cares about their time should do. In addition to his interests in mobile phones, Dusan also loves to experiment with the latest web and mobile 2.0 services. The idea of accessing and managing your information from any device no matter where you are simply amazes him. Whether it's an online to-do list, note taking service or a video sharing social network, he's there to try it out. He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application. Dusan used to run SymbianWatch.com which later became part of IntoMobile. He lives in Serbia, South-East Europe, from where he edits the site on a daily basis.

      CyanogenMod is based directly on the core android OS. It’s extremely close to the ‘real android’, and aims to bring the flavour found on Google’s devices to others.
