samsung genio touch, 18 Feb 2010
This review is from: White Samsung Genio S3650 Mobile Phone on Vodafone PAYG (Wireless Phone Accessory)
i have the samsung genio touch on vodafone.the camera is 2 megapixels,which does not sound great,but actually the photos are very clear and the colours are vivid.battery life is very good,but if you use the internet on it,it will drain the battery much quicker,but with little internet use,the battery can last around 5 days with having made quite a few calls and sent alot of texts.the music player will use up the battery quicker,but the battery could last 3 days before needing to be charged,with moderate use of the mp3 player.the internal memory is around 50 megabytes which can store a fair amount of songs.you can buy a memory card of upto 8gb. there is a collins dictionary on the phone which is free to use,and you can save the words that you look up if you wish to do so,very handy.there are lots of applications on the phone,which are spread out over 3 screens.there is an mp3 player,internet,alarm clock,calendar,fm radio,voice recorder,memo,world clock,calculator,tasks,rss reader,stopwatch,converter,timer,texting is easy as the "buttons" on the screen are quite large ,therefore very easy to use.the text size can be adjusted to be small or medium or large.my dad is 65, and he has the tocco lite,he gets on with it well,the genio touch uses the same menu,call quality is very clear.though some people say that the genio touch phone is aimed at teenagers, i am 26 and i think that the phone is suitable for any age.i think the phone is fabulous and would highly recommend to anybody

Very smart, 10 Feb 2010
This review is from: White Samsung Genio S3650 Mobile Phone on Vodafone PAYG (Wireless Phone Accessory)
Seem's to have all that I need and then some, the touch screen is excellent and with the on screen display for the dialing pad it makes it easy to see and use, great if you have "fat finger syndrome" quite intuitive to use and you hardly need to use the reference book that comes with it. The only down side is that it is locked to "O2" so I will have to get it unlocked but not really a problem. If your thinking of a cheap and fun little mobile then this could be ideal for most people. Also it has a REALLY nice display very clear pictures and stunning graphics.

A Kid's Review
This review is from: White Samsung Genio S3650 Mobile Phone on Vodafone PAYG (Wireless Phone Accessory)
the samsung genio touch is a very likable phone easy to use
fast in touch
has all the basic apps you can choose from 4 colours:pink,white,yellow and orange i have the pink and with each colour
comes a plain black cover and a patterned one
its a good shape can fit in your palm it has a 2gb camera and very clear photos come out of that you would think it was 10gb not 2 also shoots videos which are great too.
some of the apps are dictionary,calculater,my files and many more out of 10 would be 10 out of ten its that good i was going to get a iphone but i am so glad i changed my mind my friend has a iphone and we were going to be i buddys but when she got hers she told me our plan would have to go astray the iphone was slow and you couldnt trust it photos were rubbish so was video and that the ones in the shops for show must have something on them that makes them go faster in the end she took hers back and got her money back and she brought the samsung monte instead and shes glad she did so i brought this phone instead
way better so if yr thinkin about getting the iphone keep this in mind the samsung genio touch is an excellent phone stylish,eay to use ,quick and just fab!!

Has its drawbacks, 22 Jun 2010
This review is from: White Samsung Genio S3650 Mobile Phone on Vodafone PAYG (Wireless Phone Accessory)
Going to point out some drawbacks to this phone, because I think there should be some balance to the reviews. Touchscreen technology on cheaper phones has a way to go, if this is an example. Touch sensitivity is not 100% reliable, making texting not always easy (call me old fashioned, but I loved being able to operate a phone with one hand on the go). The spell predictor on this model is annoying - it 'remembers' one-off rare words like names and suggests them before everyday common words. The touch sensitivity locks when you're in a call - pretty standard, but if you need to access the keyboard (e.g. call centre menus) you have to press Unlock, then Keyboard, then the number.
Some other design faults: the Lock/Unlock button is shared with the Shortcut-to-Camera button on the side of the phone. Terrible idea. Mine has a small intermittent fault: sometimes in camera mode, the whole phone locks up and you have to take out the battery and reboot it.
On the plus side: It is a good looking phone (friends will think it's flasher than it really is!); the camera's not bad at all; it has plenty of good features (music player, expandable memory, radio).
I'm being totally subjective here. I understand why this phone is 5 out of 5 for some people. Personally, the little niggles are not really worth the hassle.

Samsung Genio S3650, 16 Jan 2010
This review is from: White Samsung Genio S3650 Mobile Phone on Vodafone PAYG (Wireless Phone Accessory)
Brought this as a Christmas present for my 14 year old daughter. Arrived in good time (as usual). Loads of features to play with but whats important is that it work and looks good. Touch screen is nice to use with no clitches we have found. She seems very happy with the phone.

This phone is nice although there are a few probs with them, 15 Aug 2010
A Kid's Review
This review is from: White Samsung Genio S3650 Mobile Phone on Vodafone PAYG (Wireless Phone Accessory)
This phone is really nice looking everything about it is clear and easy to understand. The only thing is its has only got EDGE. For me that is a bit of a problem because i cannot connect to the internet so i cannot get anymore games, music etc. Overall i reccomend this phone for people who havent had a phone before and need it mainly for communicating not for gaming.

My daughter loves this., 8 Oct 2010
This review is from: White Samsung Genio S3650 Mobile Phone on Vodafone PAYG (Wireless Phone Accessory)
I bought this phone for my 11 year old daughter. She LOVES it! I've also bought her an 8gb memory card to go along, so now it can hold over 1,000 pics and 1,000 songs. She never puts it down, she texts the whole time, too! she said it's definatley 5 star. My advice is - buy it!

Genio Touch, 8 Dec 2010
This review is from: White Samsung Genio S3650 Mobile Phone on Vodafone PAYG (Wireless Phone Accessory)
This is a terrible phone. DO NOT BUY. The screen always freezes and locks up. There is no way to re-calibrate it, so it keeps happening and gets more frequent after the first time. If you can, spend an extra few punds and get the Tocco Lite, a much better phone!
:)
