In addition, 16 Million colors enhance the brightness, bringing immense vividness to the display.

As far as messaging is concerned, the virtual QWERTY keyboard is very convenient to use with its sufficiently spaced virtual keys. You can use this keyboard in both the landscape as well as the portrait mode depending on how you are holding the phone.
Impressive Camera Quality:
The 5 MP camera of the smartphone captures even very small details in photos. This high resolution, therefore, contributes towards the high quality of pictures which are really clear and life-like. For indoor and low-light photography, use the LED flash to add brightness to the captured scenes.
Additional features of the camera include face detection, autofocus, geo-tagging and image stabilization. Your pictures will, therefore, come out great. You will also be able to tag them according to the shooting location and share them with loved ones.
A Great Device for Entertainment:
The Smartphone brings lots of entertainment to you in the form of a great media player, fast connectivity and browsing, and several preinstalled apps & games.

Connect either through Wi-Fi or 3G and have fun sharing photos, sending emails, updating status and much more all the day long.
