Included is a 3.2MP camera and, even more importantly, a VGA camcorder that can be used for recording and streaming, allowing users to engage in full-fledged video chats. It’s designed to be especially geared towards sports enthusiasts, as it includes GPS with geotagging, a pedometer, a GPS tracker, a compass, and a stopwatch. And in case a hiker gets lost in the wilderness and runs out of battery charge, all he/she must do is hold the phone to the sky.
Additional Information
Additional features include a 2.8” touchscreen display, a music player, and FM radio. It's intended for being strapped to your arm or shoved in your pocket.
