Calls

The Alias 2 offers no surprises or new calling features compared to other Verizon phones running the same base software. If you want to see your recent calls list, hit the send button. This feature is as intuitive and simple as can be.

Contacts

From the home screen, hitting the right soft key takes you straight into the contacts menu. The default action is to search your contacts. If you want to view your contacts, you have to scroll down. Each contact lets you add 4 phone numbers, 2 email addresses, street address, a photo and fax number.

In all, there's nothing confusing or unique about making calls or searching through your contacts.
