No it is not an IPhone however you can connect to the internet and it does have bluetooth. It is a great device to listen to music, books, and watch a video if you like.

I've actually heard of ppl doing that. I know that you'll be able to text and make calls but the data won't work unless you manually configure the phone settings. I've never done it so it might be a pain. I'm not exactly the nerd tech type but here's a link that may helphttp://mms.msg.eng.t-mobile.com/mms/wapenc

This is the Wifi version, you can't make calls if you mean by that phone calls.But if you mean Skype and others by 'making a call' then yes you can.

Yes, you can make a phone call. Item comes with a 3.5 headphone pin style for iPhone and other popular devices, like Android phones, that support headphone and microphone capability.

I believe you can send text messages. The phone purchased was not for me, however, I don't see a reason as to why it would not be able to.

You can make calls on this device. It's an android smartphone that uses the Gingerbread operating system. Ipod touch uses apple's iOS and you can't make calls as far as I know. Can refer to google to see the difference between the two operating systems but I believe both can do the same basic things(watch videos, play games, listen to music).

You can only make phone calls if you get the 3g version of the device (http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-Galaxy-Note-GT-N5100-16GB/dp/B00BLLX9CI/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1387842078&sr=8-1&keywords=galaxy+note+8+4g) however, if you are a subscriber to a third party calling application (for example, Google Voice) you can also use that. But in order to use 3g to call and text using a carrier, you need the version that I provided the link to above. Hope this helps.

Yes you can make calls. It's sort of uncomfortable up against your ear and the sound is a bit muffled
