EDA5S User Guide 47
USE THE PHONE
You can use the phone feature to make and receive phone calls as well as transmit
data through wireless wide-area networks (WWANs).
Note: Phone features are only supported on EDA5S WWAN models.
About the Phone
Phone features on the computer include dual speakers and three microphones for
noise cancellation. You can also use a hands-free kit or headset that supports
Bluetooth® wireless technology.
On WWAN models, the phone feature is enabled by default and supports all
cellular radio access technologies (2G, 3G, etc.) for voice and data connections
around the globe. These features are certified by PTCRB, GCF, and all major US
carriers.
After you turn On the phone and activate service with your wireless carrier, you can
customize the phone features and network settings in the Network & internet
section of the Settings app.
Note: WWAN radios support Network Information and Time Zone (NITZ) messages to
automatically set the system time.
Activate the Phone
WWAN models use either a nano-SIM card or embedded SIM (eSIM) to activate the
phone and connect to a mobile network. Available SIM options are model and
mobile carrier dependent. Contact your mobile service provider to obtain a nano-
SIM card or QR code or for additional details on phone network activation.
Available Configurations:
• EDA5S WWAN models include one nano-SIM card socket and eSIM.
