Intro

The Samsung S5230 Tocco Lite is a touchscreen phone of rare quality. And whatever its name may suggest, its high-end camera media player and advanced social networking functions, mean that it’s far from light on features.

Samsung’s S5230 Tocco Lite takes the brilliant features and stunning handset design that made the F480 Tocco and the Tocco 8300 Ultra so popular and crams them into a super light handset.

Onboard you’ll find the company’s brilliant TouchWiz interface that makes operating the phone a brilliantly intuitive user experience. And thanks to the addition of widgets, you’ll be able to access all social networking sites quickly and easily with a single press of the 3-inch touchscreen.

But that’s not all. The Samsung S5230 Tocco Lite also boasts similarly outstanding imaging capabilities. The 3.2 megapixel camera is easily a match for most dedicated digital cameras and thanks to the inclusion of smile and face detection technology, you’ll be sure of a great image every time – irrespective of your skills with a camera.

Better yet, once you’re happy with the photo, you can upload it to social networking sites within seconds. And if you so desire, you’re even able to tag photos of your contacts.

Other features of the Samsung S5230 Tocco Lite include a media player, which harnesses Samsung’s DMSe 2.0 technology to give a rich, natural sound, and an FM radio keep you entertained and informed while you are on the go.

The Tocco lite is sooo much cooler than my last Tocco - I had the original Tocco and dropped it once and it totally smashed, I've dropped this one a few times and it's still going! Much more sturdy!

This phone is extremely easy to use and the on screen qwerty keyboard is great, many different feature in an otherwise not very well known phone, overall i'd recommend this phone to my friends
