I have had this phone for a couple of weeks now and can honestly say that it is a great phone. Build quality is superb and the display is crystal clear. It is quite tricky at first and the manual is pretty vague, but it doesn’t take long to get up to speed.
This is the first touch screen phone that I have used and find it to be very responsive indeed. I can’t compare it to the iPhone because I have never used one. Composing texts with the touch screen is a breeze. I’m not sure what the other reviewers are doing, but I have no problems.
The only thing that I would say to potential buyers of this phone is that it is not an iPhone. If you want an iPhone then buy one.

The original Tocco was a direct competitor for the uncomparable iPhone when it came out, trouble was its touch screen wasn’t up to scratch and nowhere near as intuative as the apple, texting was fiddly, navigating around was not as easy as it should’ve been and although cheaper, just didn’t compare. Now don’t get me wrong, it is a great phone but had flaws. I guess that’s why this `ultra’ edition is here.
Firstly it has the addition of the slide out keypad, at almost no extra phone size for the text maniacs out there who found their overly large fish fingers were churning out allsorts of messages trying to find those colon, dash, close bracket symbols, this is a great feature – although you still have to navigate around via the touch screen.
I’d say this isn’t for people who, dare I say it, just want to bell home and find out what’s for tea, no, no, no. I would say most of us would need a week in night school to get to grips with this and for those out there who actually utilise 90% of the features would get a diploma in the post, or a letter saying that they should get their noses out of this piece of technical gadgetary and venture out into the real world for once.
Saying that, it does have pretty much everyting you’d need, and don’t need in this modern day and age. Music player? Check. Good camera? Check. GPS? Check. Video, email, internet, fancy ringtones, alarms and oh yeah, the ability to call someone? Check.
There are smaller phones out there, and for some people that’s just what they want; something to pop in their pocket. It used to be the sign of a quality mobile, the size of it. They got smaller and smaller to the point where you actually need a dialing wand to call someone. Nowadays they’re getting bigger, and feel better for it. I always found it stupid when you were holding a phone the size of a tic-tac with the mouthpiece up by your sideburns somewhere – at least with this you actually feel like you’re talking into it…now if we can banish those stupid bluetooth earbuds we’ll be laughing.
All in all, if you can get past the first week where you have no idea what part of the phone to press or stroke or caress to send a message, then you’ll love this little magic box, it really has more than you’ll ever need…until the next one that is…now where are those symbols?…oh yeah
One last point, if you are anal about scratching your phone, have a look about first for covers/cases because I’m not so sure there is any just yet that protect the screen. Just a thought.

I bought this phone for my husband and he is thrilled with it. I only ordered it a short time before Christmas but it was despatched very promptly and arrived with time to spare.
