Hi Saqib,

Yes there is a Voice Dictate button on the on-screen keyboard.

All the best

Hi Mike. Yes I've heard good reviews about this phone. How would you dictate
a message on that phone? Is there a dictate button on the screen somewhere?
I think Google's voice recognition is much more accurate than the pathetic
IOS version of it. I know this as I once owned an Android phone and I use to
dictate messages by holding down the volume up key within the Mobile
Accessibility app and I use to get a few sentenses back. I had to select the
one that was correct.
