Amazon.com Product Description
Share your passions, happy accidents, and triumphs with the Microsoft KIN ONE, a new kind of mobile phone that enables you to share more of your world with the people who matter the most. Small and compact, the KIN ONE is a perfect fit for your pocket and is easy to operate with one hand.

Stay connected with the latest updates from your friends on social networks like Facebook, Twitter, and MySpace, along with your favorite Web sites directly on the KIN Loop home screen. And make sure your best friends come first by adding them to your Favorites, so their updates, posts, and photos will appear more frequently in the Loop.

You'll be able to easily share almost anything with almost anyone--photos, videos, or web sites, Twitter posts, map locations, and more--using the KIN Spot, a small colored dot at the bottom of the screen. Just drag it to the Spot, add the people you want to send it to by dragging them to the Spot, and then choose how you want to send it (e-mail or MMS).

Powered by Windows Phone OS for KIN, the KIN ONE features a 2.6-inch capacitive touchscreen display that's complemented by a full QWERTY keyboard that slides out from the bottom of the phone. The 5-megapixel camera is designed for use in low light with image stabilization and a bright LumiLED flash, enabling you to capture late-night snapshots. And all your photos and videos--as well as messages and contacts--get backed up to the secure KIN Studio Web site.

The KIN ONE is the first Windows Phone to feature a Zune-powered music and video experience, which also provides FM radio and podcast playback. With a Zune Pass subscription and Zune software on your PC, you can listen to millions of songs from Zune Marketplace on your KIN while on the go or load from your personal collection.

In addition to running on the fast Verizon Wireless 3G EV-DO data network, the KIN ONE can also connect to Wi-Fi networks (802.11 b/g), enabling you to view Web sites on the full HTML browser and download files using your home network as well as on-the-go hotspots.
