Samsung F480 Tocco User Reviews

I find the Mobile phone I have easy to use. Slim and very clear on talking and hearing. I've had other mobiles, but haven't found them very good, especially when losing the signal. The signal on this mobile is extremely good, and gives no problems on connection or receiving calls. They come in black, but I daresay other colours are available to suit everyone. It would be good to see what they bring out in the near future and interesting to see if it prompts me to change. Battery life is also very good, I am not constantly recharging it, unlike my husbands mobile which needs constant charging throughout the day.

The phone design is okay, its nice and light however I don't really enjoy touch screens. The phone constantly freezes when you have too many applications running at once. If you are a low usage user when using mobile phones this phone is fine. If you are more tech savy I would not recommend you to buy this phone. The battery life span is low and I was constantly charging the phone. A nice attempt at a smart phone but not up to the standard of others at the time when it was released. A average mobile phone but not up there with the best.

A great looking phone which is pretty easy to use.

The phone is nice and slim, and comes with an extra battery cover that flips up and doubles as a screen protector, much more convenient than a full case.

The best feature is the "fully customisable" main screen where you can ‘drag and drop' ‘widgets' onto the main screen from a sidebar hidden away off the left of the screen. You can open this by tapping an arrow that pulls it out. This offers all available widgets. Then you drag what you want across to the main screen. When you've finished with it, you can drag it back-this includes the network logo. The selection of widgets isn't massive but does include games, photo album, the date, clocks, calendar, music player and FM radio.

All other functions work similarly to any other phone.

The phone has 2 cameras-one on the front for video calling and a main 5MP one on the reverse for standard photos. I found the quality of these photos good however the biggest downside is the long shutter time, it takes a while from when you press the button for the photo to be taken.

The phone has no wifi capabilities, which you would expect from a phone of this spec. Also sometimes with the touch screen it is easy to exit applications or mistype. Perhaps a qwerty keypad may be better. Another (minor) but most annoying thing is the fact that you cannot rotate photos in your photo albums so that you can use them as wallpaper.

This phone is well designed, light and easy to use. Camera is of good quality and taking pictures is simple. The touch pad is easily accessible and the space between the numbers is ample for small or large fingered users. This phone holds it's charge exceptionally well and I would recommend this to any of my friends.

For a touchscreen phone the Tocco is very good and even hard to damage. Mine sits in a trouser pocket in an engineering background and has not let me down yet. Overall I am very pleased with its ease of use and the features it has, the 5.0 megapixel camera is fab.
