Screen
There's hardly a flaw in the Versa's striking 3-inch Thin Film Transistor
LCD touch-screen display. Using 262,000 colors and a 480x240 pixel resolution,
the Versa's screen displays sharp, ultra-vibrant graphics and animations
that supplement an equally eye-catching "3D" Flash user interface and menu
layout. The touch screen provides tactile feedback that can be customized
for calibration, vibration strength and sound effects.

Turn the phone horizontally, and the Versa's multidirectional accelerometer
will automatically shift the screen to landscape mode. The widescreen view
is ideal for messaging, web browsing, motion-controlled games or surfing
through your photos and music album covers.
On the outside cover of the QWERTY keypad module, you'll find a second
display screen that uses energy-saving Monochrome OLED technology. At 0.96
inches long, this 56x120 pixel grayscale display is just big enough to display
caller ID, battery life, signal strength, time and date.
After a period of time, the main screen will automatically lock and slip
back into energy saving mode. Simply press the unlock key on the top of
the handset to resume activity. Screen lighting and backlight time can be
changed to suit your preferences. You can also swap menu fonts, dial fonts,
display themes, main menu banner, wallpapers and the image that appears
while the phone is charging.
Audio
 Because
the Versa comes with a built-in 2.5 mm headphone jack (as opposed to the
more standard 3.5 mm jack) you might need a headset adapter or wireless
Bluetooth stereo headset to take full advantage of the music playing capabilities
on this particular model. Versa's music player can handle MP3, WMA, unprotected
AAC and unprotected AAC+ files. Headphones and stereo Bluetooth accessories
are sold separately.
Users can manage playlists and navigate through songs with the swipe
of a finger on the Versa's scrolling display of album covers. Plus, it's
easy to multitask while you're listening to music. Just hide the player
to send texts, browse the web or edit your contacts. To ignore calls and
messages, switch the phone to "music only" mode.
Additional audio features include one-touch speakerphone, visual voice
mail, voice messages (up to one minute recording time for sending messages)
and voice memo recording for up to an hour.
The Versa operates on an 800 MHz CDMA digital dual band frequency and
a 1.9 GHz CDMA PCS frequency to ensure consistent call quality. The phone
additionally offers TTY/TDD support and hearing aid compatibility (M4/T4-rating).
