Design
Take a closer look at the 8910's functions.
The phone features a traditional clamshell design with a 128 x 160 TFT color display with 65,000 colors. The rear of the flip-up cover houses a camera that can snap shots at 640 x 480 resolution, also known as VGA resolution. There's also a small 95 x 64 secondary black-and-white LCD display on the back of the cover that displays incoming call information, network signal strength, and more. Most camera features and on-screen menus are controlled by a five-way center button on the handset's control pad. The top right side of the unit houses an extendable antenna, and data and charging ports are housed on the unit's bottom edge.
The Flasher V7 has all the latest calling features you've come to expect. The phone comes with built-in Virgin Mobile Superphonic ringtones, plus a vibrating alert. Superphonic ringtones feature real music tracks; more are available via Virgin Mobile's VirginXL service. Ringtones can be assigned to specific callers so you don't have to look at the phone to know who's calling. The built-in speakerphone makes it easy to talk without having the phone to your ear, and voice-activated dialing makes calling your friends, family, and associates as easy as saying their names. There's also a built-in address book that can store up to 300 contacts for quick and easy management of phone numbers and e-mail addresses.
