Samsung Genio Touch gets Saturdays launch
05.11.2009
The Genio Touch, Samsung's brand spanking new touchscreen handset that comes in an eye-popping range of colours, made its debut on 5 November alongside chart-topping Irish-UK girl band The Saturdays.
Cute and curvy and in a range of funky colours, the Samsung Genio Touch has a big and bright user interface that makes it easy for users to tweet, Facebook and surf the web on the go.
Vanessa, Mollie, Frankie, Rochelle and Una from The Saturdays show their love for their favourite Genio Touch shade
Like other Samsung touchscreen handsets, the Genio Touch has a customisable home screen for you to drag and drop your chosen widgets into place, but the best feature has to be the pop-up SNS (social-networking sites) notification alerts.
There is also direct access to YouTube, Flickr, Picasa and Photobucket, as well as a built-in FM radio.
Instead of password protecting your Genio Touch phone, you can unlock with finger gestures: you smart unlock your handset by drawing a chosen letter on the screen.
The diminutive Samsung Genio Touch comes in Jamaican Yellow, Minimal White, Festival Orange or Cupid Pink, and is available from Meteor, Vodafone and The Carphone Warehouse from €119 prepay.

hi i have had this phone for about a month now and it's a really good smart phone, it's cheap and reliable. it's a very girly style and internet is very easy to use anywhere. it hasn't played up at ALL and i haven't had any problems! as soon as i saw and tried the phone in the shop (and my dad tried it too!) we both thought that it was so good that we bought it right there on the spot! 5 out of 5 stars from me! i reccomend it for anyone that wants to text and use internet (email is quite good and basic internet use but not very complicated sites). xxx
