it can take pcitures but there is no web cam, you can e-mail or text or go online, you have the 10/4 walkie talkie, alarm and skedule calender, there is no memory card but you can still take 15 or more pics and save them, it doesnt fall into pieces like the other phones when you drop them i mean the battery cover and battery doesnt come out, this is a built strong phone for minute card reading solo mobile can be used for contract and you can quit their montly contract anytime you want like other cell phones in Canada will work in USA cause ive only used it as an emergency card reader.
