The Craft’s built-in 3.2 megapixel camera with flash and camcorder with auto-focus features single, multi, panorama, mosaic and frame shot to capture photos instantly on the go.

Along with the Craft, Samsung Mobile supplied LTE infrastructure for MetroPCS’ Las Vegas LTE network.

Samsung Mobile ranked at the top place in the number of contributions and obtained most of essential IPRs.
