voice to text capable

No voice to text. (However, there are apps for that on google play). Just remember, this is a very basic device and you get what you pay for. I'd say it's between andriod and some cheap $20 mp3 player that is total crap. It's good. Not the best, but definitely not the worst.

I had the same problem. There was absolutely nothing in the manual about how to enable text to speech. If you did not know the acronym ("TTS") and what that meant alongside the voices, you would never have guessed it. I love my unit, but was seriously disappointed with the poor documentation of the product. It is like so much tech doc these days: written BY the people who thoroughly understand the product's ins and outs and FOR the same sorts of readers (i.e., fellow knowers of the ins and outs)!

Basically the short answer is yes but you will have to either download an app or visit one of the several websites that provide free txting. This tablet does not carry a SIM and therefore does not directly support texting in the way one with a network connection would. Hope that is helpful. There are tons of apps for it though.

It has the ability to search items on the phone such as call John" or search for items on the web. If you do speech to text it ill take a while and sometimes misses words.

Yes you can use Google voice commands with no problems. The camera works fine too. No issues with the cover at all. Just the minor fit issue on the case bottom section, but that may just be a manufacturing fault. Nope I'm really happy with this case, can't beat it for the price.

Sure can! Voice is great. Video, well, I've never been able to transmit my face, but can see who I am calling very well.Haven't used it recently.

As far as I know, it is not capable of text messaging. Do not know what would be needed to do so or even if it can be adapted.

I have been able to using the voice commands. There is a bit of a lag from the time you press and hold the button to when you actually hear 'Say a command'. I used it paired with a Motorola Razr Maxx.

I never do text, but it can connet to internet, there are several chat apps for Android, so I think you can text.

Yes you can listen to music. As for texting, I don't believe so because you can't activate the phone's voice commands.

Chris, you can send and receive text messages, but you can not make voice calls

Should be able to, haven't tried myself but the speed is decent to handle skype and the microphone from what can be tested when messing with google search voice recognition is more spot on detecting what i am saying than my samsung galaxy player 5 can usually recognize.

Yes. My husband uses this phone. He does not text, but it is capable of it.

I believe so. I sent it to my nephew as a gift but I did a little research on it and I believe it can be programmed for voice activation. ...

This function is possible on the phone but would depend on the system it is connected to. I use our grandstreams running on asterisk and asterisk supports this feature. It works great. You need a SIP or similar VoIP enabled service to use this phone

I find the Speaker Phone to be quite adequate; sufficiently loud enough for those with hearing difficulties. The playback on the voice messaging system is not quite as loud, but I believe still adequate.

I do not think so. I was not able to get this headset to activate the voice dialing on my phone, but I may not have been doing it right. Reading texts is generally handled by an app on the phone. If you have an Android phone, Dragon Mobile Assistant, formerly Vlingo will do that. You press the button on on the headset and say "Read new text." You can also send texts. S-Voice on some newer Samsung phones is a variant of the same app so if you have a newer Samsung you may already have the capability.
