Chapter 14. Using the Samsung Galaxy Tab 4 NOOK Camera and Google Hangouts

When the first NOOK Color was released, no camera was part of the device. As the NOOK Tablet and NOOK HDs followed, no camera was added. That’s all changed now with the Samsung Galaxy Tab 4 NOOK. In fact, you have a front-facing and rear-facing camera. The rear-facing camera is a 3 megapixels, while the front-facing is 1.3 megapixels.
