This review is from: Samsung S5260 Tocco Icon Sim Free Smartphone (Electronics)
I sat here for almost 3 hours reading and reading and reading before I bought. My original intention was to buy a much cheaper basic phone and I realy do wish I had stuck to my original game plan. The basic reason for my regret is yes I was tempted by its features but my fingers are too big and a stylus wont work for some reason. So far I have managed to store just 3 phone numbers mostly because it is very easy to press the wrong button canceling the input or submitting it in an incomplete state and then getting a failure message ARGHHHHH!!!
I must have become “description blind” I completly missed the fact that I cannot plug this phone into my computer and do a quick up or download like my previous phone. I am pleased the wife does not use the internet, she might have read this and then there would be hell to pay.
I am put off returning it (I still have 6 days) because the cost is at least equal to the cost of the phone I originally intended to buy.
Its no good saying I will read the description more carefully next time, I spent ages doing that yesterday when I purchased the new one….
The phone gets 1 star because I have severe trouble using the touchscreen. I feel sure that technically its a good phone…but if you cant actually use it then whats the point….
If its for a child please be warned that the games offered have adult themes, Sexy this, Hot Bikin that….very inapropriate. But, the keypad would be perfectly suited to a young teenager rather than an adult.
Buyer Beware!!

Nice looking phone with decent specs including wifi. However the touch screen is absolutely dire. I have small fingers but i find it impossible to type accurately or quickly. Its not actually a pressure sensitive screen but one that detects the electrostatic from your finger. Consequentally a stylus or a pen won’t work either. It’s ok as a phone but if you want to use it for texting or IMing, you’ll find it an impossible experience.

|Phone Review,
My son loves his new phone. He like the ringtones, weight, size, games and the wifi. It was not very expensive either.
