It has been the same problem with each handset phone locking up and battery life no more than 8-12 hours in standby. According to the service provider it is not a common problem!!!

Rubbish Quality. Rubbish phone. Just do not buy it! Rating: Reviewed by janett on 24/04/2011 I got my Tocco 3years ago (still got it) for £350 ! pay as go. Never had any problems with it what is really impressive. it freeze for maybe 5 times during 3 years! and i just restart it. The battery at the beginning was brilliant i was playing it and it was still on for a week (now at least 3-4 days but i didnt change it and if i go abroad and dont use phone much it will stay for a week) The camera is very good but only during the day as flash is horrible to be honest. The phones software is simple however at the beginning i couldnt get used to that it doesnt have sortages and u have to go to menu everytime. the touch screen is really good and phone looks very posh. It has never let me down and i did think it wont last for that long as i have dropped it milion times on pavement down the stairs etc... Obviously now its got scratches everywhere but i dont think i wil change it as its really great phone ~!!!! never regret that i spend so much money on it. Rating: Reviewed by liz on 18/04/2011 hate this phone,it is rubbish.Brought this phone two weeks ago and then realised my mistake.It has no wi-fi which is like having a car without a door and is so old Rating: Reviewed by gc on 04/04/2011 i have had my tocco for over 2 years now and i love it i've never had any problems with it. i completely disagree that it looks dated especially when you see the similar styles of handsets being released now. for anyone still thinking of getting one now, its a good basic touch screen that, if you can find one, will prove be a great purchase at the price you can get one for. for me, it was a trend setter and a classic, the other handsets i had on upgrades i sold because they just weren't anywhere near the quality.

It has a very good camera, able to take photographs directly of the sun! So except for the minor fault of the broadband connection speed, it is a brilliant touchscreen phenomenon.

Rating: Reviewed by riyas on 22/11/2010 good not bad Rating: Reviewed by Hazz on 16/11/2010 i think it is a great phone although it can get a little annoying. :) Rating: Reviewed by Nick on 25/10/2010 Ok upgrade this phone from a horrible Nokia 6110 navigator see mobile phone uk review for more information. Well anyway I brought this phone on the 1st of October of last year and was a good phone when I had in my position such as a good screen, decent battery life for a touchscreen, nice looking phone, good camera during the daytime (horrible at night, nowhere near as my beloved Sony Ericsson k800i) and a decent music player. Many people have said that this phone is a pain to text with but for me it was just a matter of practice. However, during the 11th month period I notice that my f480i has started to develop minimal reception and was starting to not able to hear the person on the other line very well and will drop out the call eventually. To see if this was a fault with my sim card or my phone, I put the sim card into another phone and saw that I had full bar reception in the exact same area. Not only that I notice that this phone was starting to miss calls (i t will not ring just straight away to my voicemail) and I will receive txt message from people or ether an alert that I missed a call like 5-10min latter when they were sent. I also experience difficulty to hear the person on the other line even when I would be in the city. I was initially impressed with this phone that they fixed up many of the issue that I had with my Samsung d900i some years back such as the battery life, speaker, able to have custom ringtone; I even found texting better on the f480i then the d900i. I’ve sent to get it repaired 2 times and it’s still developing these faults which lead me having lost confident with this phone. And due to of these fault that I am expiring within my handset my network carrier offered to replace the handset with an lg optimus (only choice was between this or a nokia 6700 slide) which I am not confident with since every single new phone that I purchase within the last 2 years, I have not been impressed with and hav e developed some issue within less than a year of ownership. I am now using at time of writing another k800i which a friend gave to me for nothing to replace the k800i that I damaged and I have found it to work extremely better f480i and if my new coming lg optimus is also proven to be a dud, I will continue using the sony ericssson k800i until I am able to afford or find something that is a true replacement or until the k800i dies. I thought this phone was a great phone initially but this is coming to a conclusion that I will never purchase another Samsung phone again despite the chance I have given to Samsung along with Nokia phone as well since I had major issue in the past with nokia handset as well. I wouldn’t recommend this phone, especially long term.

I agree with Tom below, you need pins for fingers to SMS with this. It takes so long that I have resorted to actually calling people to say 'OK' and 'Sounds good' because I'd rather not punish myself by using the amazingly bad SMS functions. Another ridiculous thing about this phone is how it randomly resets to default settings - I don't know, maybe it thinks it knows better than you? I turn off the beeping tone that happens when you push a button (as all sane people do) and it just decided that it would actually rather make noises yesterday. I turned off the service provider band which is almost half the size of the screen, and when I turned my phone off and on again, lo and behold there it is! Cue struggling to remember how to get rid of it, considering the manual is of absolutely no help. Good luck to those who use this phone for an alarm - you can't just push a chunky button in the midst of your morning groggery, no you have to push the tiniest little cube area on the screen, which involves staring into the bright screen in order to push it properly. And don't push too hard, it must be a light, girly touch. Which is exactly how everyone turns off their alarms at 6 in the morning... I hate this phone like I have never hated a phone before. My boyfriend suggested throwing the monstrosity in the latrine. I don't know who uses the word latrine these days but WOW I am tempted. I hope this will stop an otherwise sane person from wasting their money. Rating: Reviewed by andy23666 on 08/09/2010 absolute waste of money i had one and battery life with no use was 4 hrs get a nokia Rating: Reviewed by Holly on 07/09/2010 i think this phone is pretty good, and reliable despite what the review says. ive never encountered any of those problems. it also plays music well+ the case is a good idea. the only two things i dislike are how long youu have to wait for a picture to take+ and how long youu have to hold down the unlock key to unlock the phone. other than that its a reasonable phone. would recommned.

Rating: Reviewed by reddalexander on 11/08/2010 Its a nice looking phone. I dont like the reception, I like to talk on the speaker and it will static real bad and drop calls. In order for me to call someone back I have to turn the phone off. Key pad is small, it is hard for someone with big hands to text or dial a number. I dont like it at all. The one thing I do like about it is, it takes good pictures. Do not recomend for anyone to purchase... Rating: Reviewed by emily dakers on 19/07/2010 i have it and it is the best phone ever, how did i live without it??? Rating: Reviewed by Christina on 18/07/2010 I've had this phone for 16 months now. I found it very easy to use and text alot and find it very easy to text quickly as well as having good use of the camera and editing abilities. However, over the past 3 months the touch screen sometimes becomes un-repsonsive and even after turning the phone off and replacing the battery, the touch screen fails to work. I have never had problems with it dropping calls, although due to the phone company i'm on, it does cut out and its hard to find signal. I've dropped the phone many times, and even though it's now covered in scratches and is chipped on all 4 corners - it must be extremely sterdy!! Rating: Reviewed by Lucy on 16/07/2010 My dad has this phone- and I must say, it's hard not to be impressed with it! A quick, responsive touch screen, slightly blurry camera, fab internet, gorgeous design... i could go on. i will be getting a Lite version tomorrow- hope it's as good! Rating: Reviewed by AZ. on 14/07/2010 I've had this phone for a while now and I'm still loving it. I have it in brown. Due to its sleek-design, a lot of people have been thinking that it's expensive when it's really not. The camera is great. Its even better when you view it in the computer, almost as good as a digital camera. The sound is nice. I like how the volume has higher maximization than my old phone. Overall, for a cheap price, Samsung Tocco is really really awesome! Rating: Reviewed by Jessica Sommers on 08/07/2010 Had the phone for quite a while now, but have not faced any problems at all, well, apart from charging. The first few days, charging did not complete well. But that was fixed afetr I had drained the battery completly and then re-charged. Apart from that everything is great. Only downfall is that there are no Themes for it. Rating: Reviewed by amy on 08/07/2010 I have this phone for over 2 years roughly and i have went to samsung office and get it fixed before after there was a problem on my phone as it would switch off itself and sometimes when i turn on the phone, it wouldn't work...if i get to choose again; i would not get this phone again as you cannot even watch anything on it really. Rating: Reviewed by dominic on 08/07/2010 had a nokia n95 , n96 and a host of others, the samsung tocco beats them all, great camera, video recorder, touch screen, its getting on now, but im getting new battery, and casing as i wouldnt part with it. Rating: Reviewed by Tom on 06/07/2010 This is quite possibly the worst phone I have ever used in my life. Lets begin with the speed, what they have done is put a fancy user interface on a phone which desperately needs more memory. The touch screen is unusable and has made me call the wrong person multiple times. The battery life is less than a day if you want to make any calls. Do not buy if you want a working phone because trust me by the end of the week it will be in the bin where mine is.

I have had this phone for nearly 18months and its driving me round the bend! I loved this phone for the first 2 months, then problems occured.. The main problem for me is the touch screen. it is soo hard to text as you have to have pins for fingers, and when tou type a word like "You" if DONT type it in wrong it will get confused and ask you to type again. However on the positive side, on the many occasions i have tried to break it, it still works, :) Rating: Reviewed by Ravinder Thaper on 31/05/2010 This phone ruined my life. Rating: Reviewed by pakeeza bozma hussain on 27/05/2010 i la la love this fooooone !!!!!!!!!!!!!! Rating: Reviewed by MZ. on 19/05/2010 in reply for emm8931 - I think you could update your firmware with the latest one. Perhaps that'll fix that for a bit. Regarding the battery lifespan I suggest you change the battery as the short batery-life is perhaps due the overusage of the battery. Maybe you charge it so often before the battery life starts to lower down. Charge only when needed (low battery warning) and that you make you battery last longer for a longer period. Have you tried to maximize the volume when you're on the phone with someone? Maybe that'll help you listen more loudly. Rating: Reviewed by emm8931 on 03/05/2010 I got this phone on contract nearly a year ago and i can't get on with it.. its a nice looking phone, and texting/general use is fine, but its so unreliable! It freezes all the time and the voice quality in calls is so bad i have to use speakerphone most of the time! Battery life is also fairly poor - it needs charging up everyday with average use. Ive bought a G600 to use for the rest of the contract which is a shame as I think the tocco has the potential to be a good phone. The camera is excellent, browsing the internet is fine, texting takes a while to get used to but isn't a problem..its just the call quality and freezing that make it completely unreliable. Anyone know if this is something I can get a software update for or is it just how this phone is? Rating: Reviewed by Megan Z. on 01/05/2010 I've had this phone since two days ago but I got it as a second-hand phone. I've read almost all reviews and knew all the specifications all along even before I bought it. Overall it's a good phone, even though this is my first time using a samsung since I've used nokia and SE before. The customization is quite limited as you can't change your theme & such. You can only change the wallpaper & I'm not quite sure about the screensaver. For texting I would say it's quite good but I never really liked the big fonts. You can't change the font size either, which is sad. The camera is nice but note that it'll look blurry when you snap it depending on the picture's size. But I'm sure it'll turn out good once you view it with your computer. Sometimes it'll take about more than 20 seconds to snap a picture. The flash's too bright if you're taking a picture of yourself and by yourself. I'm sure it'll come in handy on certain times. The user interface is very sharp and bright. You can set passwords for you messages if you're giving it to someone else to view the phone and you don't want them to read your messages. The sound is good despite the fact that it only has a small speaker on the upper-front surface. I would totally be thankful if this phone has a WiFi. Design is sleek, very contemporary. So I conclude that this phone is really use-friendly. Suitable for people who likes sharp and bright screen and big fonts. Pricing is excellent. It's worth a buy. However the suitableness of this phone is depending on what a person you are. Example if you want a more exciting phone you might as well go for the Samsung Tocco Lite. The only thing I dislike about this phone is the big, big font and that we can't change the theme. Rating: Reviewed by soph on 26/04/2010 i tried the phone for a day and just sent it back because it was awful ! camera is rubbishh andd u cant text properly i deffo wud not reccomend this phone!! Rating: Reviewed by Mina on 25/04/2010 I've using this phone some months now i think is cool. But i have one problem,i am not able to download operamini and ebuddy on my samsung f480. Can anybody help. Rating: Reviewed by Louise on 24/04/2010 I had this phoen for over a year (and then sadly it was stolen). However, not once has it faulted on me in any way. Texting: the touchscreen is brilliant. For texting you barely have to touch the alphanumeric screen (there is no qwerty) for it to register your touch. Therefore, texting is extremly quick (once you get used to it). Camera: In my opinion was very good quality for 5 MP (not that mp actually count anyway). It took clear precise pictures. However, you do have to hold down the camera button slightly for it to focus up and that wastes valuable seconds and is kinda infuriating. But it isnt that big a problem really. Calling: very easy to do. I had no problems with that (apart from the odd occasion when id accidently hang up). You can clearly hear the other person talking and they could hear you very well. Music Player: I never really used this as ive got a great little ipod nano. Battery Life: Very good. I could last a few days with heavy use and not need to charge up. Internet: i never used this alot either as i have a good little laptop. The Tocco isnt really an internet phone so i wouldn't recommend buying it for that. Im not sure there is much else to comment on. Its great for texting and has a great camera. Its not an interent phone and it only has basic features on it. But all in all its brilliant. Rating: Reviewed by sophie on 06/04/2010 not the best phone ive had, its not as exciting as i thought it would be. okay phone but get scratched easily! watch out for that 1 Rating: Reviewed by Sabrina on 06/04/2010 I have had this phone for about 11-12 months. I would not recommend this phone to anyone. Shortly after getting it, I had to have T-Mobile repair it because it kept cutting all of my calls off. I have set up security for my message and my photo (as you do ;)) and it will only ask my for my code about 10 times. After this, its like there is no code set up, it just won't ask me for one anymore, therefore meaning if I opened my messages, it would go straight to my inbox. The only way to get the code to appear again, is to turn your phone off and then back on again. Even if you go to the settings, it will show that its all set up, but doesn't actually work for very long. The signal is still very bad and the line is always breaking up when on the phone. Also, I have delivery reports and sometimes I don't get reports for the messages that I send to people. It's really frustrating because at times you really need to know if a message is pending or if its been delivered. Sometimes when I try to make a call, it won't let me. It makes a really weird noise or it will tell me that the number I am calling is incorrect or unavailable. People have trouble getting hold of me too. Another crap function is the T9 Dictionary. Words that you save to your phone e.g. I am really p****d off today - everytime you type a word using those exact keys, it forgets straight away. Same goes for other words such as Hotmail. However, other words you just cannot get rid of - I once typed 'CV' in, now when I try to type the word 'As' CV appears everytime and no matter how many times I repeat the 'As', CV will ALWAYS appear. This also happens with a lot of other words. Texting on its own is a task in itself. The keypad is very small and it took me ages to get used to its tiny keys. You cannot customise your phone with any themes but its no big deal because as long as it looks nice, and works properly, the theme is not an issue. The camera is ok, as long has you have very good lighting in the room or place. Usually its kinda dark, but when I went on holiday, there was sun everyday and due to the rise in lighting, the photos I took were crystal clear, almost proper camera quality. I hope this helps. People having similiar problems, please leave a comment. It annoys me whenn people leave comments two days after getting the phone. You cannot comment on the phone after two days. This is not really an experience, as the phone will probably not show signs of a fault for another few days or weeks. I never had any problems after a couple of days. They began after about a couple of weeks after I started using it. A phone's main purpose these days is to make and receive calls with no interference, problems or fault at all. You should be able to text properly and when you set something on your phone, it should work. This phone gives problems! AVIOD AT ALL COSTS!!!!!!!

I thought this was a sleek pink, and cheap device worth a go. So I got one for my birthday. Boy was I wrong! It may be nice looking but will you have to make a lot of changes to like this. First you may just never want to turn it on because the battery is awful. I keep my screen on lowest setting, and the haptic feedback off and it still dies on me in a day or two. I have to charge it every day. and it doesnt even indicate when it will die. It may just die when it feels like it, thanks samsung. Well done for making a rubbish phone for reliability! This is my first samsung after finally finishing the sony ericsson marathon for a change and it looks like the biggest mistake I ever made. Texting is bad too when I realised there is no qwerty keypad to text! The silly layout makes texting a pain and I am a heavy texter. On the plus side music is excellent on this phone and the camera quali ty is better than I expected but average video at 15fps. Overall it is pretty nice to look at but dont buy it even if it is cheap. I moved back to my k610im and I dont know why I didnt sooner. Million times better Rating: Reviewed by Julie on 16/02/2010 Hate it.

Rating: Reviewed by Vijendra Kumar H. on 27/01/2010 Amazing phone. I liked it the most even though there are certain drawbacks like you cannot find the incoming number whether it is from home/mobile/office when you have stored all numbers in a particular address book entry, you cannot name the camera files as per the date format etc. Also for the common man it is difficult to operate. But for tech savvys it is a feast :-) Overall best phone in that price segment.

It has a good battery, which before I got my phone on the internet, seemed to last a week sometimes, lasts a fair while even browsing the net. The only big issue I have with this phone is that it doesn't have WIFI, if it did I would be happy to keep it and not bother upgrading. Apart from that, the only other issue I have with it is the flash on the camera, it is not very good, in the dark it is too bright and everyone squints and still the picture is low quality and is very dark. However the camera is excellent in natural light especially a sunny day. Touch screen is good, I have chosen the cover with the leather flap, a couple of friends have the same phone but did not use the cover with the leather flap and both have said the touch screens are temperamental, so I think it's best to keep the screen protected.

I fully charge it every day as if I leave it on and don't use it the battery wears down, fast! Sometimes, the phone will not fully charge either. The rest is really good, I like the camera and touch screen very easy to use but the battery life on my phone is rubbish! :( Rating: Reviewed by Dawn on 05/01/2010 DO NOT BUY THIS PHONE! It constantly freezes, so much now that I can't actually use it. It flips between screens constantly on its own and you have to take the battery out to reset it. The battery life is terrible too, one long phone call and it gives up. It also has many features that you can't personalise despite it being marketed with that point! Don't bother with the Samsung, if you do, make sure you get phone insurance! Rating: Reviewed by HappyHannah on 04/01/2010 I got this phone a year and a half ago- i am now about to get a new one, but with much reluctance. I LOVE this phone, it is amazing and has never let me down, the camera is great (flash is blinding!) and everything else! So easy to use. I would deffo recommend this phone:) Rating: Reviewed by Luke on 03/01/2010 Is a 10 out of 8 becaues it has know wifi and no gps but is ok Rating: Reviewed by Hannah on 02/01/2010 Good phone on the whole but for a mobile that is marketed as the most customisable phone, and you can't change the screensaver on 3 mobile, it's not so great. Otherwise fine... Rating: Reviewed by Higus on 02/01/2010 I've had the Tocco for over a year now and it's been horrible since then. The touch screen does not work often and the voice call quality is rubbish having to resort to talking on loud speaker. The menu is not the best!

Texting is easy for me but that is probably because I am used to the touch screen cause I have an itouch, but once you use it for awhile it gets easy. I can't figure out one thing though, does anyone know how to change the texting tone? Like when I recieve a text it does a little bleep and I want to change it to a song but I can't figure out how? Rating: Reviewed by Jimmy on 22/12/2009 Its the best ever i say get it Its all good Rating: Reviewed by Tj on 17/12/2009 F480 is good in many respects. The only annoying thing about it its inability to play YouTube videos. Rating: Reviewed by sueg on 15/12/2009 had the F480 for over 12months - cant wait to change it. Within a couple of weeks it had kept cutting me off after about 3 words. Would take about 3 attempts to keep connected. Took it back to carphone warehouse -was sent away.When returned seemed ok for a few weeks then started cutting me off again. All in all this phone has been sent back at least 3 times - the last it had new softwear. Better but still loses signal or cuts me off at times.Never any trouble with my old Nokia when using as back up. I know a few people with same phone who are unhappy with it either same fault or problem with camera.(my camera fine)Roll on April when I can change it - back to Nokia. Rating: Reviewed by Michael on 07/12/2009 Do NOT buy this phones as a music phone it is terrible, the battery life is terrible and would last less than a day if you do anything on it scrolling is terrible esp. if you are going down a long list of music/ contacts. It is very difficult if not imposible to select what you want when going down a list and there is NO SIDEWAYS KEYPAD, the widget functions are rubbish and i cannot download any new ones. I CANNOT WAIT FOR MY UPGRADE and i tell you something considering going back to my old sony w810i, what a great phone it was. Rating: Reviewed by Rochelle on 06/12/2009 This phone is brilliant, at a great price it includes practically everything. It has the 5 megapixal camera, the touch screen, music recognition, to be honest its amazing. I would reccomend it to anybody that it thinking of buying it. I have no complaints about it, it is easy to use and looks great. I am very pleased with mine & I think if you buy it you'll think the same. Rating: Reviewed by calum memaster on 06/12/2009 My (rather accident prone)daughter has had one of these for 11 months now and it's still going strong (the leather flip over case and a mirror screen protector have helped this. I can honestly say that it has had no problems whatsoever and my superfast texting daughter has had no problems adapting to a touchscreen text experience. She uses it as her camera, music player and general communications device and is very happy with it. I guess you can be lucky or unlucky with any phone and her example of the Tocco has been exemplerary. So it has to be 5 stars. Rating: Reviewed by emily on 06/12/2009 hello, i have had this phone ofr just under a year and really like this phone. It is easy to use as it was my first touch screen phone and have had no porblems with it :) the only thing i would mark it down on is the fact that i cannot change my screen saver.

Rating: Reviewed by Peter on 04/12/2009 I am currenty using a samsung tocco and it is the worsd phone i have had the missfortune to upgrade to, the camera is poor quality, the touchscreen is an absolte nightmare and you cant hear a thing when people call. I have ordered a nokia n95 8gb to use until i get my next upgrade. A serious warning to anybody thinking about buying this phone, dont, its a phone that bad they had to bring a new model which has a keypad Rating: Reviewed by AngelB on 04/12/2009 I had, and still have the Samsung B3310 - quirkly little thing it is - as a bit of an intro to Samsung in readiness for renewing my contract (this being a whole five months away). I've had my Tocco as a birthday prezzie after getting through six, yes SIX Sony E's of two diffent models owing to the ongoing saga with them. I can honestly say I wish I would have gone to over to them sooner. Faultless, so far anyway. And if all I will have to worry about is the dropping of phone calls then big deal! I have a phone that I can use, inside my house, I have internet access whilst sitting and watching TV and not having to go outside, its a little gem, and so what if it is not all singing all dancing, you can add what you like to it and make it your own. Highly recommended!

I found it to be a waste of money. i do not recomend this phone to anyone. Rating: Reviewed by Gary Durie on 27/11/2009 I've had this phone for a year now. Its done me proud. the battery life's been great, no delay in the touchscreen. However I had no complaint till recently where the software wouldn't load, the menu would spin and today the screen would fade out. If anyone else has had this happen to them I would like to know what you done to resolve it. I'm going to take it back to the dealer tomorrow and see if they can sort it if not then its just an excuse to get a new phone. Rating: Reviewed by Rachael UK on 26/11/2009 Ive had this phone nearly a year now and im changing, had enough. its a good phone, but thats about it really. One thing i will mention is that when your answering the phone its abit tricky with the touch screen and i constantly hang up on people because of it. also texting is a bit fiddly at times. the internet is average, nothing great. but the camera is brilliant quality! so if your a camera phone person, the tocco is a great choice. recently the lock has been causing me abit of trouble. it has a mind of its own. the battery life is appauling. a need to charge it almost every day.no games really - had to download my own. cant really customise it. the widget is great though , but if you get the phone on orange then the widget is different and limited, so i dont reccommend orange for this phone. bluetoooth - 5/5 fantastic. hope this helped.
