Samsung has confirmed that the Tocco Lite 2 feature-phone will be made available in the UK in early March.
The phone, which is the successor to the 30 million-selling Samsung Tocco Lite, features enhanced social networking and multi-media capabilities in a "stylish and sleek design".
The Tocco Lite is a feature-phone, which essentially denotes any mobile not deemed a smartphone.
Facebook, Twitter, Samsung ChatOn and push email are all supported, along with instant messaging services such as MSN, Yahoo! and Google Talk. The device has a built-in music player, 3.2 megapixel camera and 3-inch QVGA screen.
"Our range of Tocco devices have been among our best selling over the past few years," said Simon Stanford of Samsung's UK & IRE Telecommunications & Networks Division.
"Thanks to the incredible response we've had to the original Tocco Lite and Tocco Icon handsets, we're excited to now be offering our customers improved social networking and enhanced multimedia capabilities with the Tocco Lite 2.
"Our aim with this new handset is to build on the features we know our customers enjoy and find useful by providing greater synergy between their mobile handset and their social networks, and in doing so, giving them more ways to stay in touch with their friends and loved ones when they're on the move."
The Tocco Lite 2 will be available across a range of the UK mobile networks and retailers from early March 2012. Pricing has not yet been announced
