Loaded with two cameras, one in the front and a 5MP camera at the rear featuring a dual-LED flash, Streak owners can effortlessly and intuitively capture all their special moments. The robust 1GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon processor combined with an Android OS and Dell’s multi-touch user experience provides users with an efficient, fast and powerful handset.
