Your smartphone comes with an
easy-to-use, built-in, 1.3-megapixel camera
with 2x digital zoom. You can use the
camera to take and view pictures and
videos and send them to your friends and
family. To add a personal touch to your
smartphone, use your pictures as your
wallpaper in the Phone application’s Main
View, and as caller ID images (see
Assigning a caller ID photo
for details).
