Reviewer: Sue - UK
Date: 30th Aug 2009

I must say I bought this Samsung Tobi for my son ready for him setting off to secondary school in September & we are all really happy with it. OK it's not like my iPhone 3G but it won't get stolen at school either, it is a little lacking & only has standard features, although these features all work well & are very good for a younger mobile phone user.

I would recommend this phone to younger users & the parents of younger users, it really looks very good, works extremely well & it is not the type of phone to be ashamed of but neither the type of phone your classmates want to get their grubby hands on, as a parent we all worry about our kids being attacked for their gadgets, so in my opinion this is a safe bet.

Good price too.

Thanks for reading Sue.
