Contacts
Contacts give you quick and easy access to the people you want to reach. When you first time turn on your phone and sign into your Google Account, any existing Google contacts are downloaded to your phone. After that, your contacts are synchronized: any changes you make to your contacts on the phone or the web are made in both places the next time you sync. Contacts from Exchange ActiveSync accounts are also synced in this way. Information about your contacts is shared with other applications, such a Gmail, Google Talk, Messaging, Gallery (for sharing photos and videos) and so on. If you have more than one account with contact information, Contacts joins duplicates into a single entry. You can also manage that process manually.

You can search for a contact by name. Search for a contact Tab in the Search box and start entering the name of the contact you’re searching for. As you type contacts with matching names appear below the search box.
