> In reply to shayne @ 2008-07-16 10:33 from mCSYI've just seen this phone and had a wee shot of it, it doesnt have a pen but when in text or dial mode the touch buttons are big and clear. I can even use it and ive got big hands/fingers. Very tidy phone. You get the normal battery case on it but it includes another battery cover that has a full cover for the front attached. i was 100% sure i was going for the motorola Z10 until i saw this now im in 2 minds what 1 to go for. i got a comparison sheet between this phone and the new iphone 3G it states the following-
tocco 5Mp camera
iphone 2Mp with no video recording

the tocco has the following that the iphone doesnt

Flash
Smile shot
Face detection
Anti shake
Image stabiliser
Auto focus
video recording
video messaging
MMS messaging
Bluetooth video transfer
Bluetooth image transfer
and supports 8Gb memory card

and all half the size of the iphone. very impressive

Hey there, i'm thinking of getting this phone as soon as i can, once i save up the £300 to buy it from play.com haha

But the only thing that is worrying me about this phone is the metal backing, as i am the owner of an LG Shine currently, and the backing on this phone reduces signal quality dramaticly.

My question is if this is also the case with the Samsung F480?

Thankyou in advance :]

Im about to buy this phone but someone says that you can't use the front camera when taking photos. Is this true??? Or can you switch between the front and back cameras when taking photos?

*In order to save VIDEOS you’ve recorded straight to your memory card instead of your phones memory-

Click on ‘menu’ then ‘settings’ and then ‘application settings’ and then ‘camcorder settings’ and then change the option under ‘default storage’ to ‘memory card’.


*In order to save PHOTOS you’ve taken straight to your memory card instead of your phones memory-

Click on ‘menu’ then ‘settings’ and then ‘application settings’ and then ‘camera settings’ and then change the option under ‘default storage’ to ‘memory card’.

As for having all images and ringtones you download to be transferred straight to your phone, I have no idea...

This phone is not out in Australia. You can manage to buy it on ebay which is how I got it. Just wanted to ask anyone if I could change the screen saver? Not sure how to.

Yeh the battery does sux... I have to charge it like 3 times a week.
