The Sliding QWERTY Keyboard vs. Onscreen Keyboards

You can use either the sliding QWERTY keyboard or one of the onscreen keyboards to enter text.

Sliding QWERTY Keyboard

Your device comes with a sliding QWERTY keyboard, which is similar to a standard keyboard on your computer.

To use the keyboard, slide the screen panel to the right to reveal the keyboard. The screen orientation automatically switches to landscape mode when the keyboard is opened.

For more information about using the QWERTY keyboard, see “Using the Sliding QWERTY Keyboard” on page 26.
