Long Description
5.0 Megapixel Camera
Including a built in 5.0 megapixel camera, with auto focus, the Samsung Tocco F480 on Orange takes quality pictures that you will want to share with your friends. Store them in your phone, email them to friends or upload them to your blog.
Email Client
The Orange handset has an email client, which will allow you to receive email from your own personal email account, and send pictures, videos or text emails to any email account anywhere in the world. Email access on the phone is simple to set up and a cost effective way of keeping in touch.
Music Player
With a built in music player, the Tocco can carry your tunes with you, in your pocket, and listen to them when you want. Most digital formats are recognised on the phone, including MP3 and AAC.
Bluetooth 2.0
Bluetooth 2.0 is the next generation of Bluetooth connectivity. With Bluetooth 2.0 one of the biggest advantages is the possibility of listening to music with a compatible wireless headset in stereo. Less wires, less mess, more noise.
HSDPA
HSDPA on the Orange Samsung Toco offers a similar benefit to a 3G network that GPRS offered to the GSM networks. It offers a higher speed data transfer with a compatible handset. HSDPA is commonly known as Mobile Broadband.
Java
Java is often a forgotten feature on many phones, and is probably used in many ways without you even realising. If you play games on your phone, it is likely they are java apps. But java is so much more than games. It allows you to add extra functionality to the Samsung f480 by installing third party apps to the phone. Add email functionality with Gmail, add a web browser from Opera Mini, add a business directory with Yell.com or keep an eye on a new purchase on Ebay.
Samsung Tocco
The Samsung Tocco F480 is similar in look and design to the popular Samsung Armani phone. The Tocco has an updated UI, giving an improved user experience to previous touch screen phones. Feature wise the Samsung tocco includes an impressive 5.0 megapixel camera, support for Bluetooth v2.0 and is compatible with HSDPA mobile broadband connectivity, for very fast downloads.
DG - Nottingham-07/05/2009 The phone has a really good responsive touch user interface, and the camera is fantastic quality with good features. All round nice phone.
HG - London-23/04/2009 i've heard amazing things about this phone. It looks so sleek and stylish and i had the option to get the pixon which i think is the upgraded version of the Tocco with 8 megapixel but i stuck to this phone, i love the cool little widgets and all the texting maybe something i need to master as i text very fast but no worries, overall i am very happy with the phone. I worked very hard for it so it definitely seems worth my while!!
G.P - Motherwell-16/04/2009 Phone looks great, takes a little while to get used to the touch screen, especially scrolling, but once you figure this out it is a doddle, battery also lasts a hell of a long time, features are also good and easy to use - would definitely recommend
VC - Cambridgeshire-07/04/2009 Great service and a great phone. Would use Mobiles co uk again!
JB - Manchester-30/07/2008 The Samsung Tocco is amazing!! Its smaller than the i-phone and does the same. It comes with a case that protects the screen or just a back, picture quality is really good and the best thing about the phone is the touchscreen features. Very good phone...would recommend to EVERYONE!!!
LR - Warwickshire-29/07/2008 I was impressed with my new Samsung tocco mobile phone, it had all the features I needed and was happy with my free gift.
RP - Surrey-28/07/2008 The Samsung Tocco is a sophisticated touchscreen phone/PDA.
BS - Dunbartonshire-25/07/2008 I got two Toccos from you guys, one for me and one for my wife and it has to be said it is a great phone! Once you get used to the touch screen feature it is very easy to navigate round and has tons of features that make it a pleasure to use. I have only had the phone a few weeks but I am still discovering new and wonderful features! The camera is great and the fact that it makes no noise when taking pictures was brilliant.
KM - Selkirkshire-24/07/2008 The new samsung tocca is stylish and professional looking. Despite all the technology packed inside it is remarkably slim and is really easy to use. Definitely the best phone I have ever used. The sound is clear and the camera has amazing clarity. Very happy with the tocca. Mobiles.co.uk have provided an excellent service.
AE - Perthshire-23/07/2008 The phone is great, really modern and a great deal. The only frustration I have is being unable to use my own screensaver, and if I can, the phone is a little bit complicated. It could do with some password protection as well as it is a business phone and messages may be private. Apart from it being a little difficult to get to grips with first, it looks great and works well.
DM - Bradford-22/07/2008 I love my new Samsung Tocco. It looks great, is easy to use and the camera is excellent!
KB - West Yorkshire-21/07/2008 I recently purchased the new Samsung Tocco and was initially dubious it would not live up to all the hype. I shouldn't have worried - it is a fantastic little touch phone that really does give the iPhone a run for its money (money being the operative word!). For a lot less cash you get an awful lot of phone. I previously had a Nokia N95 and did not think any thing would beat the 5mp camera, yet the Tocco certainly produces clear and crisp photographs even in poor light! A fantastic adaptable touch phone that I would recommend to any one thinking of purchasing!
TT - Shropshire-21/07/2008 Samsung Tocco is fab! I picked it up and easily understood all its operations straight away, only needing to look up the more detailed aspects of the phone. The touch screen works beautifully and takes no time at all to master. The fact that you can lock the screen to prevent accidental calls makes it even better. Camera is fantastic, some great features, and the cover provided with it does a great job of protecting the screen, while in your bag or pocket. Its great!
BE - Stoke-on-Trent-21/07/2008 I have found the Samsung Tocco to be an excellent choice. I can now carry one device to replace my old phone, I-pod and main camera. So far the performance has been as good as the items it replaced. The music player is as good as my i-pod and the camera function is as good as my sony 5mp camera. On top of this I now also have mobile internet access at 3g speed. I have added a 2GB micro sd card to give me plenty of memory. The phone is a class act.
LG - Surrey-16/07/2008 I can only give the Samsung Tocco a raving review. It looks great, is fun and easy to use, and its picture quality and effects are brilliant. Texting took a while to master, but I have to say it is the best phone I have so far - it is hard to put down!!!
HD - Tyne and Wear-16/07/2008 Samsung Tocco is sleek and sexy and I really love it. Camera is high spec. Best feature is the touchscreen which is very sophisticated. I would recommend this phone to everyone.
JC - Lancashire-16/07/2008 I love the new Tocco. It's slim and light and the screen is a good size. The camera is good. However, when you lock the phone a random 'Wallpaper' is displayed. However, only 7 (out of 10) of these are available to choose from. The rest are hidden in the phone (the best one's can't be selected - rang the helpline & they confirmed????) The guide book provided is limited and doesn't go into detail. Therefore you don't know how the majority of the functions work - (Ok keep the basic guide book simple, but provide indepth guidance separately - via booklet or internet). The leather screen guard seemed like a good idea in practice, but you feel stupid using the phone with the thing flapping about around the mouth piece. However, I've only ever had Samsung phones and I intend things to stay that way.
Kristy - Eastbourne- This phone is great!! It even comes with a cool case that fits the phone perfectly!!!
CO - Bedfordshire- This is what I would like to call a more affordable version of the iPhone. It is very sleek, with a very good camera and can be used by both men and women.
