Samsung S8300 Tocco Ultra Slide Phone Touchscreen 3G mobile phone handset reviews and tariffs

+ Great camera and good memory capacity.

- The battery is awful - as soon as you browse the web, listen to the radio or play a song from the music player, the battery seems to drop from full to nearly empty staight away.

+ Easy to use, slide out keypad is great for those who want a stylish touch screen, but without the complications on one.

- if you tilt your phone whilst viewing photos, the photo flips angle and keeps skipping to the next one. good if you want to view a very fast slide show, but can get rather annoying!!

+ its small compact great picture and video looks good music sounds really good

- battery life is very poor

+ I love my Samsung Tocco Ultra Edition...Not only does it look good (I got the red one) Its packed with features and with the combination of touch screen and keypad make it easier to use. The camera is brilliant and all you would expect from an 8MP. Browsing the internet is easy and very quick. The headphones i got with the phone are excellent, great sound off them. Holds hundreds of songs and ideal to use as your personal music player with shuffle and playlist options.

- when browsing the internet u have no option but to use the touch screen...a navigation key would have been useful (replacing the back key with a navigation key would have been better) sometimes if your trying to click on a link that is small, its quite hard to get the touch screen to select the small link...you often have to zoom in and out of webpages to help you.

+ First off, I love this phone. The touchscreen, while slightly laggy at times, is a lot easier to use than navigation buttons in my opinion. The camera quality is very much worth the money for this phone, along with its internal memory. The widgets are very handy, but also have a major downside, which i'll cover in the bad section.The sound quality of the phone is decent, along with a fairly good battery life.

- Texting with touchscreen is a bit annoying, as if you make a mistake, and want to go back, you pretty much have to delete everything up to the point you want to correct. The touchscreen has a hard time pinpointing exactly where you want it to be in the text editor. The other downside to this phone, is the widget system. Whilst very useful, there is no function to lock the widgets in place, and if your keypad is unlocked for whatever reason, widgets can accidentally be moved around, which is very annoying.

+ the camera is very good

- cause iam hard of earing the sound does let it down

+ I think the Tocco Ultra overall is a fantastic phone. Ease of use, music camera cannot be faulted whatsoever.

- The only bad thing about this phone is the battery life, it goes down way too quickly. The good far outways the bad so that i can live with.

+ THE CAMERA IS WICKED ORGANISER IS GREAT

- THE BATTERY LIFE IS POOR HAVE TO CHARGE IT EVERY DAY

+ i got this pfone because of the camera it great takes better pictures then my normal kodak camera

- only bad points is the touchscreen and thats bacause if i get carreied away pressin the screen im on to something completely different but thats my own fault really i do advise to get a memory card though its got memory but as i like taking pics it takes alot of memory up even though i have 187 pics as it is n the memory card it comes with

+ camera andshreen was very nice

- there was really no good music quality

+ camera

- phone internal memory. eventhough i have a memory card all the wallpapers, ringtones, msg tones, contact pics, or contact ringtones automatically transfer from the memory card to the phone memory to allow it to use in any of the functions listed above, as the phone memory is too small you can imagine my frustration when i have to re transfer all the wallpapers ringtones myself bk into the memory card before i can change the wallpaper ringtone. Also the memory is so bad it doesnt have enough to store 2 different ringtones therefor the msg tone or ringtones have to be the standard ringtones of the fone. transferring bk into the phone memory isnt as simple as it should be. i would have thought that a hi tech phone might have a been able to commincate with the memory card.

+ The phone looks nice and the screen is quite a good size with the phone remaining slim. It is good to have the keyboard as well as the touch screen.

- The phone is not that easy to navigate around and I cannot get it to sync with my computer which is a pain. Texting is not easy to use and can take a lot longer than my previous phones which were quite 'user friendly'. Quite dissapointed with this phone.

+ good camera

- battery life not very good

+ screen and design

- plastic quality

+ i really like it just what i wanted.

- loads of problems loading software to pc.
