AT&T Samsung Focus 2 Review
Online, June 6, 2012 (Newswire.com) - Apparently Windows and AT&T have a good partnership, since the third 4G LTE Windows phone has just been released onto the AT&T network. The Samsung Focus 2 is an entry level 4G LTE phone, perfect for those that want a compact phone with the Windows system. Also affordable, you can get it for $49.99. The great thing about any Windows phone is you know they don't skimp on features and you know exactly what you're going to get with every phone. The Focus 2 comes equipped with everything you'd expect from a Window's phone - Mango operating system, Zune music system, Super AMOLED display, the integrated email system and the top-of-the-line keyboard with top-of-the-line word prediction/correction software.
The Focus 2 measures 4.79 by 2.47 by 0.43 and weighs 4.3 ounces. It's small enough to hold comfortably in your hand or slip into your pocket yet big enough to hold a 4 inch display. The body of the phone has a slick white coating with silver lining, setting it apart from the competition. The display is 4 inches with 233 ppi, so it has good detail, crisp colors and is very responsive. Windows designs their phones to run on a single core processor and the Focus 2 doesn't lag or show any problems with the 1.4GHz processor. The Focus 2 is a world ready phone and can connect in a variety of ways - Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, mobile hotspot, and aGPS. On the back is a 5 megapixel camera with LED flash, great to get shots on the go.
