What happened to the WiFi? And that touchscreen is annoying
Sadly the touchscreen itself is no match for the iPhone's
And the touch controls lack the fluidity and ease of use that's so prevalent in Apple's blower. Still

No support for adding extra widgets
No smartphone OS feature customisation
Touchscreen not as sensitive as it could be and can lock up
TouchWiz UI is fun to use, has some neat effects. Widgets could be useful, worked well. Lots of power.
Texting wont be easy on such a small touchscreen. No U.S. 3G bands. NillSlightMODERATEPalpableExtreme
The Samsung SGH-F480 may be the unsung hero of Samsungs showing at Mobile World Congress, thanks to the TouchWiz UI that we loved to play with. The UI has some nice visual effects, reminiscent of another popular touch phone. It also makes nice use o...

No Wi-Fi , No GPS ,A tad on the expensive side ,
The Samsung Tocco T919 has some interesting and beneficial features. Those new to owning a cell phone might find it a bit more complicated than they would prefer as well as a little overpriced. If you do not require Wi-Fi then the Tocco is a good choi...
No 3.5 mm headphone jack; Small screen; Lacking apps
A beauty with brains. The F480 loses marks for a lack of applications, no GPS, and no headphone jack, but wins on design, ease of use, value and features like the 5MP camera. Take a look at the F480 if youre happy with what every other mobile can do (...
Abstract: The new F480 sports a great form factor, fits comfortably in the palm of your hand, and has a responsive touchscreen display. It does not have a lot of bells and whistles, making it good for users who just want to have a touch-based phone that works. ...
Abstract: We reviewed the SGH-F700 not too long ago and werent impressed. Reason being it is hard to get touch-user interfaces right and the Croix UI on the F700 just doesnt cut it in many areas. You can read about the specifics in our full review. Fortunately...
Abstract: Squat and Touchscreen only, Samsung’s F480 is like a sawn-off version of the company’s flagship Omnia smartphone, it even has the same Windows Vista-like gadget sidebar. However, where the Omnia offers wi-fi, GPS, runs on Windows Mobile and has an ac...
Sharp screen, Good audio quality, Good build, 5MP auto-focus camera, 3G (HSDPA 7.2MBps).
No WiFi, No touch QWERTY keypad, Poor Headset.
Way back when the iPhone was out and I managed to get a hands-on experience with the phone, I had said that we will soon have other manufacturers with their own full-touch operational handset. And soon enough we had rumors and spy shots of various com...
Responsive finger navigation, Good media and FM players, Decent battery life
Doesnt run Java applications too well, Inbuilt features like Shozu and Opera Mini dont seem to function
ConnectivityThe F480 comes equipped with plenty of connectivity options, except Wi-Fi, which it could have used to boost the ratings. It’s a 3G-enabled handset capable of HSDPA speeds for browsing (oh please let 3G be here soon!). It supports EDGE/G...

Abstract: To pick up where we left, prepare to meet the next bestseller by Samsung. If you think Samsung F480 is not up to such a challenge you might want to think again. The compact touch-operated handset has every chance of becoming the next best thing since slic...
