Widgets are real coo useful and fun way to use the phne, the picture quality from the camera is brilliant, design is fabulous - will always go fortouch screen now over traditional buttons.

sometimes over sensitive, cant get it to sync with my pc and the 'leater' flap is ugly but necessary so not to scratch the screen.

You have the chance of an 8gb memory in a card. The Samsung PC studio is very good allowing you to take off important information and also for downloading items such as birthdays/anniversaries in the organiser by using a keyboard (less time consuming). Still really finding new things about my Tocco. Has a better memo for jotting down notes as really I wanted something that would cover phone & pda but not too big and bulky. It goes a little way there! Have managed to drag across word and excel documents and although a bit fiddly you can read the information on the documents - a definite good point!!!

Signal is not very strong. Other phones I've had motorola, nokia have a really good signal. When texting you have to keep having to highlight T9Ab every time you want a capital because there is no symbol on the keypad to just let you shift up to a capital letter. Maybe they could have added this button where the EN is because generally you choose what language your phone is going to be used on so why need a button to change it to another language.

EXCELLENT PHONE AND FEATURES, SLEEK DESIGN AND FAIRLY EASY TO USE (ESPECIALLY IF YOU ARE USED TO THE SAMSUNG MENUS) WASN'T SURE WHETHER TO GET THIS PHONE BUT FELL FOR IT WITHIN THE FIRST DAY I HAD IT AND WOULDNT SWAP IT FOR ANY OTHER PHONE (OK MAYBE THE I-PHONE)

TOUCHSCREEN TAKES A BIT OF GETTING USED TO FOR TEXTING BUT DON'T ALL NEW KEYPADS? HAS DROPPPED A FEW CALLS BUT I THINK THIS IS A POOR RECEPTION/3G ISSUE AND HAPPENS RARELY (ALTHOUGH ANNOYING WHEN IT DOES). CAMERA IS GOOD BUT YOU HAVE TO AUTOMATICALLY ADJUST EACH PHOTO AS THEY LOOK BLURRED TO BEGIN WITH (THE IN BUILT ADJUSTMENT SORTS THIS OUT AND ITS MAINLY THE PREVIEW NOT THE DOWNLOADED PIC THAT LOOKS ROPEY)

The Tocco is a very stylish phone and looks good, is easy to use and the widget is very handy for easy access to frequently used applications, the vibrate function on selection is good too!

Texting can be a bit of a pain, if hit 'ok' before finishing off txt, then need to go hit the keyboard again in order to finish text off.

I love this phone, I had read some bad reviews about difficulty txting and was worried as I mostly use my phone for txts but I find it really simple just as easy as a phone with a keypad and I think the numerical touchscreen pad is much better than the ipod touch qwerty keyboard that is displayed

I can find it difficult if I need to activate the touch screen during a call, eg while retrieving voicemail, it is easy to bring up a the on screen keypad, but when I then place the phone back to my ear I find myself inadvertantly pressing the buttons with my face.

The Tocco F480 is so simple to use. Everything is done by touch and it has bags of features so that you can store whatever you need. The music player is one of the best with a superb crystal clear sound prodction. Web browsing is simple and quick so there's no waiting around to download those favourite tunes and wallpapers. All in all I think it's the best phone Samsung has produced yet.

If I had one niggling bad point to make it would be the keypad. Although it is easy to use, it is easy to hit the wrong keys too. I often find myself looking at the language section rather than having entered a letter in my text. Also it is easy to find you have eneded the text before you have really finished because you have caught the okay key instead of the space key.

The phone's pretty smart, and has a good range of features, set out in an interesting way.

Two handsets have broken on me in 2 months...the first two months I have had the phone...The speakers have broken, so everything is very very quiet, despite being on top volume. Also, the screen lock key jams, so sometimes you have to press it a good few times for it to register. Next, when writing a message, the space button is too close to the ok button, so it is easy to accidentally press the wrong one. Also, my handset cuts out on calls 10 seconds in, even when signal and battery are fine. Overall, I would probably think these problems were a one-off with my handset, but unfortunately, I have had two handsets with the same problems, therefore leaving me to believe there are a few serious flaws with the design.

Sophia, Manchester, “New university student”

The phone is lovely to use, never jars or freezes as i have found with past touch screens and looks amazing, definately worth it for the wow factor.

The battery life isnt essentially bad, however i find that the battery can remain on three bars for upto 3 days and then go from 3 bars to no battery in a space of hours. This isnt very helpful when out and about as charging is practically impossible. If the battery gradually deteriorated, then if a day trip was coming up and the phone was on 2 bars, then I would know to charge it. i find it a bit annoying that you cannot input words that you know the phone will not recognise when you have it in predictive text mode. Often i write something, it isnt recognised and have to scroll through all the options before being able to add my own word in. It would be much less time consuming if you had the option to enter a word without having to change it to manual text entry or scroll through options.

Zoe, Dorset, “love this phone”

I think this phone is brilliant. At first i was worried it would take a lot of getting used to as it is a touch screen but it really doesn't and i've rarely had to look at my user manual. I can't really pick fault with it and it comes with a case to prevent the screen getting scratched which i like. The memory is brilliant as well. My message inbox is almost full and i have loads of pictures, videos and music but it hasn't slowed the phone down at all.

If you had larger fingers it may be difficult to access some things without pressing other buttons accidently however this isn't a problem for me. Also, sometimes the phone cannot keep up with you if you are texting too quickly for example.

A great looking phone, easy to use and featuring speedy internet access - I was dubious at first having read other reviews but I've found no problems in using it at all. The battery life is fine so long as you don't thrash the thing with hours of internet surfing and MP3 playing so again no problems from my end. Glad I got one!

It's not the loudest phone ever so you might be likely to miss the odd call (the vibrate mode isn't particularly powerful either). People with 'sausage fingers' may have problems navigating the screens.

This Phone is quite straight forward to use, The phone itself has many features that i still havent found yet, the keypad also is very good and quite responsive. the 5MP camera on the phone is ok, a bit blury if your out and about and in strong sunlight, but in normal conditions, its fine for a phone camera, the battery life is very impressive! mine seems to last for ages without a charge! so five stars for that. overall good phone, but will fall out of fashion easy.

The sound quality from the handset is poor, compaired to nokia N95 and even other Samsung models. However it does come with a nice headset with a 3.5mm headphone jack (converter plug is included as you cannot plug 3.5mm direct into the phone) but a good sound come from these as long as the sound is up FULL. Also, my phone has a bad habbit of clicking off in mid call? i dont know whether there is a fault with my handset, or if it is when u get out of range and it just shuts the call off.

This phone is good because the keyboard islike a normal phone keypad with the numbers and the buttons are large and easy to use unlike a qwerty keyboard on the other touch phine, the widgets are also good, a little big for screen if you have more than one, if you have used a samsung phone before theres nothing new about the features really the menu is the same, the phione is touch screen but i find that it is still very easy to use

the only thing i find bad about it is you put the phone on the side to take pictures and this means that the pictures come out sideways and sometimes it can be difficulty if you use them as wallpaper as the cut off either side

I love the style of this phone, the touch screen is perfect no faults with that! The camera and video quality is great. The layout is very good, i like the way you can drag and drop toolbars onto the main dusplay screen, Graphics on the internet browser are also very good.

The sound...i cannot stand how low the volume is on everything, whether its ringing, or you are playing music. Unless i have my phone in my hand i cannot hear it ringing at all. If the speaker is slightly covered you cannot hear a thin. MEMORY I receive loads off text messages, this mobile should hold 600 messages as it says on my memory status yet i only have 200 and it is full. Im so dissapointed in samsung for this because i have an older samsung phone ( E840) which currently has 1000 messages in and is still not full. You would think the newer the phone the better the memory but obviously that's not the case. If the messages could be saved to my memory card the phone would be perfect but unfortunately you can't

The touch screen is incredibly easy to use and there are plenty of functions and features which are intuitive and easy to use. The camera is excellent and it holds the signal very well.

The ear piece volume is very low on calls and often you have to strain to hear the other caller if you are in a noisy environment and the battery does not last much longer than 2 days with minimal use (texting and a few short calls) with much heavier use of the more power hungry features (longer calls, camera, games) I suspect the battery will not last very long at all.

I don't think I have particularly large hands by the way...and still get frustrated with the touch scren at tmes. However, I generally am pleased with my purchase and would recommend this phone. Ear piece in the head phones not user friendly - keep falling out!! Prefer the type of head phones supplied with the Sony Ericsson phones. The ear pieces come in differennt sizes, so you can choose the one that fits best!

I like samsung Tocco alot. I waited for a long time to get a phone that really had my kind of features. I didnt not rilly fancie Iphone. i saw the samsung Tocco used for the first time from my manager and immediately i knew i wanted to buy it. So far i am loving the phone and am not considering exchanging it for anything for now. The sleek and balck and pocket sized phone is just appropriate for me. The touch screen and widget features is a good innovation to the phone. The camera is a 5.0 mega pixel with flash features, great for taking superb pictures on the move. The navigation around the menu is very ok. The battery life lasts me 2-3 days fully charged because i use my phone for listening to my music radio, and web facilities. I recommend the samsung Tocco to anyone looking to buy a similar phone.

The only feature missing is the wifi function. watching Mobile TV could be a little blurry. other than these i love my phone

It is very easy to learn how to use the phone. It looks stylish. The camera is excellent and very simple to use. The music option is very good.

The battery life is absolutely appalling and enough of an inconvenience to make me consider changing telephones. The sound quality when making/receiving calls is occasionally poor, especially when calling between Tocco to Tocco phones. The touch pad frequently fails to respond to touch. I find it annoying that a standard Samsung car telephone charger does not work with this particular telephone. although an almost similar shape and size it does not fit - it is hard not to feel 'ripped off' when it would appear that the design has been changed solely to appropriate further revenue.

The phone is compact, and simply laid out, takes no time at all to get used to. The Tocco is a nice enough phone, but the little features that are important to me just didn't cut it on this phone.

Having to use the touch screen in call for navigating telephone systems with 'press 1 for...., 2 for...' is annoying, text message entry is frustrating, and there are limited customisation features. The widgets are selected from a pre determined list, so you cannot choose links to options of your own choice, bookmarks list in order of saving, which is also annoying.

being a man and having larger fingers it can be frustrating sometimes hitting the wrong key.

looks good

cuts out half way through calls sometimes restarting itself, internet doesn't always work, some times it freezes and when i restart the phone i get lots of texts from hours earlier that I hadn't recieved. The keypad for texting is annoying as the ok button is right under the space so it keeps going back to the main bit of the text and the dictionary doesn't save new words so you have to type them in each time. The lock on it doesn't always work and it unlocks itself in your bag or pocket. Sometimes it's very hard to hear someone you are talking to and the hearing volume is too low even at full volume. If you recieve 2 messages at the same time and it displays in the events after reading one it goes back to the widget and you have to go through the menu to get backk to your texts.

It's small, stylish and very easy to use when you have figured out the buttons! The widget is extremely useful, and makes your phone more accessible.

Text messaging if you have dainty fingers is fine. If you have bigger fingers, it can cause problems, as you push more buttons than you are supposed to!

i was really pleased with this phone, love the touch screen, i was told that scrolling through menus was a challenge and irritating as they kept selecting rather that scrolling, i didn't have this problem and after getting used to the touchscreen found all aspects of it easy to use. The camera is great, music player is great, cant really comment on the web functions as i dont really use them. all in all a great phone. i love the music recognition function on this phone, enabling you to record a 10 sec sample of a song and it analyses the sample and produces the artist and song title if it can, it is a shame you get charged for this!!!

it's too easy to unlock the touch screen and buttons, as you only have to lightly press the hold button, it keeps coming unlocked in my pocket/bag, would be better if it needed holding down for a few seconds to lock. so far the sound quality through the ear piece when on a call has not been great, not awful, but not great. other than that, no complaints!!

i like pretty much everything on the phone

the only thing that can be slightly annoying is when you are on the phone and then need to type in numbers you have to press a few buttons ust to get the numberpad up

I really like the phone it looks great and has some really great features. i like the drop down menu and how easy it is to use the touch screen phone. The battery life is pretty good and the phone is light and sweet.

The camera is really fuzy , it looks a great picture at first then it goes all blurry!!! i thought it was gonna be alot better. I also dont like that you cant delete the screen savers asi really dont like them.

Everthing else on the phone is good and very on point,its very good and fast when you click on every feature and the web browsing is brilliant and very effective.

The music part of the phone needed more attention and the earphones that come with it are a pain to use.

Samsung tocco is easy to use, once you get the hang of it! It also looks good and has a range of great features including mp3 player.

The touch screen can take a while to get used to and the battery life is not as long as phones I have had previously.

The best phone i have had so far, large screen and once you are used to the touch screen it is quick and easy to use. The 5.0 camera and software is a great improvement on my last samsung. recommend this phone without a doubt

despite touch screens being traditionally hard to use, the size of the keypad means that use of the phone is very easy.

the phone sometimes tends to freeze when in use.
