Getting to know your phone
Screen control
You can control your phone through a series of operations on the screen.
- Touch
: You can touch the items on the screen to select, to open the applications or to use
the keyboard to input characters.
- Swipe or slide
: Quickly move your finger across the surface of the screen, without
pausing when you first touch (so you don't drag something instead).
- Touch & hold
: You can touch & hold some items to get the item’s available menu.
- Drag
: You can drag some items on the screen to realize some operations.
- Switch between landscape mode and portrait mode
: You can switch to the landscape
mode by rotating your phone. The landscape mode is only valid under some interfaces,
such as the text input interface, the message viewing interface, etc.
- Pinch
: In some apps (such as Maps, Browser, and Gallery), you can zoom in and out by
placing two fingers on the screen at once and pinching them together (to zoom out) or
spreading them apart (to zoom in).
