Samsung have always been known for releasing slim, slick looking mobiles and the Samsung Tocco is no exception. This latest handset is only 11.6mm thick, yet is packed with multimedia features. The Tocco uses the now popular touch screen functionality, with widget icons to access features in just one touch plus a high level of personalisation. It is a tangible attempt to compete with the highly popular Apple iPhone.

The Samsung Tocco also boasts 240Mb internal memory for music, with a memory card containing 8Mb storage. Where the Tocco steps up is the camera. WIth Samsung technology the experience is closer to that of a high end SLR. 5 megapixels will give to a high quality result, supported by face detection technology and a sophisticated image stabiliser.

Further phone features include FM radio, full web browsing capability with pre installed Google search. All in all Samsung are keeping up with the pack and taking a step further in a market where the interactive experience is becoming more of a selling point to consumers. Also Samsung like the other manufacturers will not rest easy, but push to get more out of the modern mobile.
