I am with T- Mobile and my 18 month plan was finishing up (this year March) so I had to find a new phone. To replace my old Nokia, which I have to say I had, had enough of.
So searching through phones that had recently came out I found the Samung Tocco. This phone was everything i needed in a phone. Plus it was pretty good looking, with a high pixel camera (5.0).
I hadn't heard much about the Samsung Tocco so I had to make my own mind up about it.

When I got the Tocco it was pretty hard to get a hold of. I had to figure out which button went where and what the widgets are. But once I had mastered this which only took a couple of hours it was easy to use. The touch screen allows easy movability. What else I liked about the phone was that it came with a protective case. This protective case is small and covers part of the back and a thin piece of leather covers the screen. But this case has saved my life numerous times. Without the screen my phone would be scratched to smithereens which is obvious from the looks of my friends Tocco who chose not to put it on. This may have been because it took me a lot of hard work to slide off the metal cover and put the leather one on.

My favourite feature on the Tocco is the music recognition which works every time!! It is amazing though does cost money for the internet. The camera is pretty good and has many effects and features to it.

I have what I need in a phone:
Bluetooth (This part of the phone is interesting as you visually send off bluetooth information, with the bluetooth format.)
Video (Easily uploadable and the phone comes with video editing software but i have yet to figure it out.)
Camera (5.0 mega pixel but may take time to take pictures.)
FM Radio (Can scan through any stations and it gives you constant information about them)
MP3 (you do not recieve a memory card but i happened to have one which was quite small (micro SD) about 100 mb so not much music can go on but it sounds good when it is.
Internet (Since I have T-Mobile it is web n walk which is quite easy to use but can be expensive)
Memory Storage
Calender (I like the calender set up as it makes it easy for me to see things with it)
Games (only one which is photo puzzle though extremely boring)

Because the mobile is 3G you can recieve messages and phone calls anywhere including the underground, which i was surprised to find.

I would recommend this mobile if you can first afford it and if you just want something simple with not too much flash about it.
