Expert review by : Ross Catanzariti (goodgearguide_com_au)

Samsung Preston Icon mobile phone

 

This compact and affordable touch-screen phone has a responsive interface and features Samsung's TouchWIZ UI

Responsive touch screen, compact design, zippy and functional interface, text entry is intuitive

No 3.5mm headphone jack, widgets aren't labelled, social-networking widgets are links not apps, positioning of space key on keyboard

The Samsung Preston Icon is a functional and fast entry-level touch-screen phone. We were disappointed by the lack of a 3.5mm headphone jack. But that aside, the Preston Icon is easy to use, intuitive and is a good option for those who are on a budget.

Energy efficient

Crappy touch screen, slow to react

A great modern phone with all the features a person would need, even a few you won't. It has a camera, bluetooth, memory card, videocall, music player and much more. A great phone if you enjoy making use of all the technology and quite a common...

Very stylish with lots of modern features and fun to use being touch screen. Good quality and reasonably easy to use.

May not be ideal for all as the touchscreen surface gets very dirty easily and beocmes covered in fingerprints which never quite clean away. Also for people who are not good with technology they mightn't enjoy it being touchscreen or if you are not up...

Great value for money. I bought this phone for my wife who is not very mobile/gadget savy. She had it humming in a couple of days and is now using it like she always had one. As an introduction to the touch phone technology it is great. The inbuilt...

Very stylish looking unit, easy to handle. Menus are easy to learn and logical in execution. Easy to set up function like phone book. Battery life OK for this type of phone. Bluetooth setup easy. Sound good. Some reviews I have read said the phone...

The finger drag and slide is a bit precious, you need to to take the time to get used to it and be very precise when using it. This also impacts on the use of the widget.
