Although the F700 is a nice phone, its Croix OS certainly isn’t as smooth as that of the iPhone. Samsung know that, of course, and they’re pleading a rush to market and asking us to give them another chance with this, their new TouchWiz interface for touchscreen handsets. As of the F480 and F490, all Samsung handsets will use the new system, which has a new widget-enabled homescreen, better use of shortcut buttons and improved labelling. PhoneScoop shot a video walk-through of TouchWiz while at the Mobile World Congress; you can see it after the cut.
The menus and general layout are unchanged, it seems that Samsung have really just learnt from feedback on Croix and tried to give the OS an extra shot of intuitiveness. Personally I think the homescreen is a bit gimmicky, but users will probably love it.
