I also thought the Pantech Ease had a front camera but what has been
call a front facing camera by some is actually a sensor that detects
when you have the phone up to your ear.
The sensor is that small round hole you see under the glass just to the
left of the ATT logo and the ear speaker. Try making a phone call to
your voice mail. You may not have noticed that the screen goes black
when you place the phone next to your ear during a call. (this helps
save battery life) During the phone call take the phone away from your
ear an in 1 or 2 seconds the screen will come back on with menu options
for features you can use during a call.
Now test the sensor by placing your finger tip over the sensor hole.
The screen will instantly go blank. Remove your finger and the screen
comes back on. Put your finger on the glass to the Right side of the
ATT logo and the screen will stay on because that hole on the Left side
is the sensor.
Like I said before, some sources describe that sensor as a camera which is only half true. Unfortunately I was also fooled by this misinformation. I was hoping to have a front facing camera to use with Skype. I was a fool to believe their hype.
