The Samsung F480 undoubtedly boasts of its display as its main feature. Comparing it to the widescreen resolution of F490 the F480 by no means does a better job. Its display has nice saturated colors and great contrast. It can be said that F480's display is by far the best among the Samsung mobile phones. Even though it may have the best quality it also has its drawback which is reduced legibility under direct sunlight which makes it inconvenient to use outdoors. Even if this is the case the touch screen capability is sensitive, it is very responsive and gives an excellent haptic feedback. Intensity of vibrations can also be adjusted.

 

The Samsung F480 does a great job in making calls. It has an excellent voice quality on both ends and interferences are not present. Though, it does not have any animations unlike other non touch screen Samsung mobile phones. Compared to other mobile phones its speaker phone loudness is only rated as Good.

 

When looking at the Samsung F480's user interface it is like looking at your desktop screen display because of its colorful background and widgets alongside it. Though, it is not as good as the Croix UI found in other Samsung devices. The widgets add to its user-friendliness and wider customization. The main menu shows a 4x3 grid composed of icons and its sub-menus displayed in a list form.

 

A new feature of the Samsung F480 is that it highlights the last used application in the submenu which is a feature that is much disputed by several users. Because it is touch-operated by default it makes no difference which application is highlighted but it may come in handy for some users.

 

Being a touch-operated device, it very impressive that it is very responsive and it does not lag in any way. The main menu is very accessible through the right key located on the tab at the bottom part of the screen.
