Taking and sending images is simple using the integrated 1.3-megapixel camera. With a versatile 8x digital zoom, the W490 captures everything from spontaneous moments to posed shots, and allows users to view, print or share at the touch of a button.

Great phone. Disappointed that half the features described in my instruction book (yes mine came with a printed instruction book) are not available on the phone. Some really cool things - just not on menus. Not sure if anyone is working on a flash for this yet.but please! and hurry!

Otherwise solid phone - awesome battery - incredible signal improvements from my v3. Sleek and much faster menus than razr. Although still playing around and customizing it, I highly recommend it.

I have a motorola w490 cell phone and it worked great for about 3 months. Now when I try to text my friend who also has this phone the numbers get stuck and the phone will not work. I took the phone back and they sent me another one and now it has started doing the same thing along with my friends w490. So now both phones are going back and I would not recomend this model of cell phone.
