The Samsung S5600 Preston is a neat touchscreen phone with a quality set of features and the nifty extras that we have come to expect from Samsung.
The touchscreen is the main feature of the S5600, and while the 2.8-inch screen isn’t the biggest around, the Preston represents excellent value for this kind of technology. This Samsung model uses the TouchWiz user interface, which employs drag-and-drop technology so you can easily tailor the device to suit you. Using this interface is a complete joy, as the Preston S5600 is remarkably fast. There is no lag in moving widgets, opening and closing menus, or even when looking at photos.
