Intro

The Samsung 480 Tocco’s fully touch-operated menu navigation, huge Touchscreen and stylish card-size design marries luxurious looks-appeal with futuristic functions. With a leading-edge five megapixel camera, it’s got everything.

The Samsung 480 Tocco’s slim and minimal looks make this a phone unlikely to be topped in the design stakes. With a leather case and brushed aluminium exterior which fits beautifully in your palm, stylish body with hairline texture and card-shaped silhouette, it takes some beating.

It’s also a technological market leader, with Samsung’s incredible Haptic technology – offering feedback when you make a selection on the touchscreen user interface. It’s intuitive, simple to used and offers digital and analog functionality which will enhance any user’s navigation experience.

Samsung 480 Tocco’s incredible five megapixel camera takes photos and video you’ll treasure and comes with Auto Focus, Smile Shot (which made its world-wide debut on the Samsung 480 Tocco), Face Detection, Image Stabilization, Power LED and Quick View features. You can then edit and enhance your pictures, straight from your phone – ready to upload to your blog or Facebook page.

But it’s not just a powerful camera. With Bang & Olufsen’s superior ICEpower technology you’ll be the envy of all music lovers – the multi-format music player sounds as great as you’d expect from the stereo manufacturing giants. With Music Library for organizing your tunes into folders and playlists, FM radio with RDS and album artwork it’s easy and fun listening and the sound quality is unrivalled.

Other features include mighty internet connectivity with HSDPA (speeds as fast as 7.2Mbps), USB 2.0 Full Speed for fast data transfer, Bluetooth for hooking up with wireless devices (printers, stereos, computers, A2DP headsets), amazing video quality recording and the ability to use both vertical and horizontal menu views.

So far I've found it to be a very good phone, easy to use and very nice looking, pity it doesn't have Wi-Fi & the scrolling can be hit & miss, but the range of features is very very good, I'd tell anyone to get this phone.

Had this for two months now & it's a very good phone that meets ALMOST all of my requirements - If it had Wi-Fi it would be perfect, But I can live without it.

There are so many great features on this phone it's hard to know where to start, the touch screen actually responds to you for a start. This took a little getting used to but is a great gadget! The music player is also awesome - definitely a cut above.
