While this phone's claim to fame is its 1.3 megapixel still camera, it's also a full-featured phone with a speakerphone, an airplane mode and support for Sprint PCS vision wireless Internet services.
The 8920's traditional clamshell form factor sports a large 128 x 160 display with a stunning 260,000 colors. A supplementary 96 x 64 color display on the outside of the cover displays picture IDs, call information, battery life, time of day, signal strength and more. An extendable antenna is located on the top right side of the phone while the phone's 1.3 megapixel (1280 x 960) camera unit is housed on top of the phone. A unique macro switch allows you to capture incredible detail in shots that feature very close subjects. A quick camera button, as well as up/down keys for volume control are located on the left side of the phone. Most of the phone's features and on-screen menus are controlled by a five-way center button above the handset's dial pad. A 2.5mm headset jack is also provided, as is a USB-compatible data connector.
The 8920's built-in address book allows you to store up to 300 entries, with each entry storing up to five numbers/addresses, for a total capacity of up to 1,500 numbers and up to 300 email and Web addresses. You can customize your caller ID by linking a downloaded image or photo to a specific phone number in your phone book. Choose from 11 multi-chord, melodic ring tones and eight traditional ring tones, including a vibrating alert. The 8920's GPS location technology pinpoints your exact location when you dial 911 (where available). Perhaps most importantly for users in rural areas, the 8920 is a tri-mode phone, meaning it can operate on Sprint's digital PCS network, as well as analog networks that serve many outlying areas.
The phone supports text and picture messaging for sending and receiving high-quality photos and quick notes to friends and colleagues. (Sprint PCS messaging charges apply). T9 text entry, a technology that makes it easier for people to enter words and text on handsets, is built-into the unit-- a plus for text messaging users.
In addition to a macro mode, the 8920's 1.3 megapixel camera includes a built-in flash, self-timer, and a 8x digital zoom capability.
