The size and weight of the "PANTONE5 Softbank 107SH" make it very comfortable to use. If you're looking for a smartphone that is easy to handle and carry around, then this should be your first choice.

The CPU performance of PANTONE5 Softbank 107SH

The processing performance of the "PANTONE5 Softbank 107SH" is quite low at 1.4GHz×1(1.0-cores), and you may find minor issues even while browsing the internet or Twitter.

The "PANTONE5 Softbank 107SH" only has 1.0GB of RAM, which is fairly low. The RAM is regularly insufficient, so operation gets unstable and jerky even when using apps that are not resource intensive.

In rating the "PANTONE5 Softbank 107SH"'s overall operational speed, it ranks at the low end of smartphones. It will lag and feel sluggish even during normal use. In most cases, users will feel the performance to be lacking.

PANTONE5 Softbank 107SH 's storage capacity

The "PANTONE5 Softbank 107SH" has 4.0GB of data storage. This is fine if you mainly use email or social media sites, but if you plan to take photos and videos or play games, you should buy an upgrade.

Since the "PANTONE5 Softbank 107SH" is compatible with SD cards, you'll be able to easily expand your storage capacity; you won't need to worry about how much internal space it has.

PANTONE5 Softbank 107SH 's screen

The "PANTONE5 Softbank 107SH" has a 3.7inch screen. It comes in a standard size, and the screen is adequate for most uses. Some users may feel that they would rather have a larger screen, however.

The resolution of the "PANTONE5 Softbank 107SH"'s screen is pretty much standard. It shouldn't be a problem for normal use, but it might prove to be a bit dissatisfying for those who wish to better enjoy their photos, videos, or games.

The camera function of PANTONE5 Softbank 107SH

The performance of the "PANTONE5 Softbank 107SH"'s main camera is rather low with only 4.9MP pixels. If you take a lot of pictures, then you'll likely be dissatisfied with what this camera has to offer.

The "PANTONE5 Softbank 107SH" comes equipped with a 0.3MP pixel front-facing camera, which is very low resolution. If you aren't particular about your videos or photos, it might be fine, but otherwise, we recommend a smartphone at least one tier higher.

The battery performance of PANTONE5 Softbank 107SH

The battery of the "PANTONE5 Softbank 107SH" has a capacity of 1460.0mAh, which is rather low. Compared to other smartphones, the battery life of the "PANTONE5 Softbank 107SH" is not very good. It's okay if you're just using it for calls and the occasional bit of browsing, but if you're going to browse for extended periods, play games or watch videos, you want a reserve battery pack.

Overall assessment of PANTONE5 Softbank 107SH

The "PANTONE5 Softbank 107SH"'s performance level is that of a budget smartphone. It's a bit too weak to use as a main smartphone, so if possible you should consider something slightly more powerful. However, it should be sufficient for people that only want to use the most basic functions, like making calls and browsing the internet, and for people that don't really use smartphones much.
