Can you send and receive picture messages? and do you have to have data?

Well you can only send and receive picture msgs with data thats how that works, because thats the only way to send a MMS msg. But to get internet you can use wi-fi and download an application that lets you send pic messages through it. There are plenty. but directly you need data of course just like every other smartphone.

I had alot of trouble with picture texts myself. I could not receive or send any picture texts at all. I dont know of any solutions to this problem.The phones are no good I threw mine away.

No WIFI. You need to buy a SIM card from AT&T;, T-Mobile or other GSM provider. (No data required, just un-limited texting) You cannot call this camera, but you can send a text message and it will respond with an instant picture. The camera can also be programmed to automatically send you a picture every time motion is detected.

Yes and yes you just have to manually put the APN settings to receive pic message

The other answer is very informative. When I had this phone, I had unlimited and I could receive group texts and photo texts. I had unlimited text, talk, and internet for about $10 but it was through ATT. Also, my phone only took ok pictures. They weren't exactly the best.

as far as I know you can...it works better IF you have the internet as the size in a message is much smaller. Hope this helps:-)

You can, but the phone is tiny so it's hard to see pics and vids. Especially since the processor isn't fast, so you can only rely on Wi-Fi to watch videos. I had this phone for a year, I couldn't send pics through text messages, that was a downer. But it is a cute phone for someone who has tiny hands and has never had a touch screen phone before.

The camera sends pictures to either an email address, or as a text message to a telephone number. You do not have to call to retrieve photos.

Yes but does not require payments for a data plan. I just use talk and text.

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 email pictures from your phone to computer. Its like sending a text but you type in an email address. Your phone can send emails too.L

I only use this phone as a "simple" phone and for text messaging (and it is great for both). There is no wifi or internet connection, so you can't transfer via "wireless". It has a slot for an internal Micro SD card to store photos and music, so I guess you could transfer files that way. I don't need "smart phone" features, just a reliable phone with a keyboard for texting, and I give it 5-stars for that -- and the battery life is phenomenal. Hope that answers your question.

No. It is a single rear facing 5 megapixel camera, but you can send and receive picture messages with it, yes.

Yes. Definitely something you want if you take pictures and want to send them. The phone needs the extra memory space to send the picture message.

you can download your pictures with a USB cable provided with camera, or using the disc card connected to your PC, they provide even a multi-card speed connector, and then there is Wifi..whichI have not used yet. You can send pics from your camera as it can be used as an IPhone sending Pics via email, Facebook. I like to load my photos onto my PC first because I like to crop, etc before using them.

Yes but you have to program the mobile to receive pic text messages otherwise it won't read them
