Compare Tocco Lite silver Deals

The Samsung Tocco Lite is the Samsung answer to the LG Cookie and, while not having 3G, it does offer a fun touchscreen interface with easy access to Facebook and Youtube. In addition, the Lite has a 3.2 megapixel camera, stereo FM radio with RDS, accelerometer sensor (to rotate the screen automatically when you turn the phone) and, for novelty value alone, handwriting recognition.

The Lite is a quadband phone, capable of international roaming, while EDGE ensures an excellent Web interface, with a WAP 2.0 browser. At 106 x 54 x 12 mm and weighing only 94g, it is stylishly slim and light. The music player supports all the regular formats and there is an FM radio with RDS.

The high-resolution 3-inch screen is a marvel, especially working with Samsung’s own TouchWiz user interface, including a virtual QWERTY keyboard. The addition of "real" keys for call, send and select make it easier to use even than a full touchphone. Mobile widgets let you customise your home screen and give easy access to applications such as the clock and weather forecast; there are also widgets for popular Web applications including MySpace, Facebook and YouTube

The Lite supports up to 16GB microSD expandable memory and a host of organiser-type functions, from timer, to integrated speakerphone for handsfree operation.  Battery life is a moveable feast, depending on how much and how many applications are used, but expect a minimum of four hours’ talk time.
