This is a great windows 7 based phone! I am switching over from and iPhone and less than 24 hours...I'm in love with the phone. Now the only downfall that I see so far is that I can't put ringtones on my phone easily...but hopefully with a little research I can figure it out!
Pros: Bright display, Durable, Lightweight
I would recommend this to a friend!

Best Phone out there? I Think so.

I've had the Samsung Captivate and the Samsung Blackjack 2, i've fiddled around with the iphone4 but none compare to this phone. The details in this phone are amazing, everywhere from the colors to the way the OS interacts perfectly with the phone. The quality of the videos are amazing, and from every other samsung phone i've had i can bet that this one is extra durable too. I purposely switched back and forth between a game and Facebook to try to see if it would lag and there was virtually no lag at all. I've shown it to all my friends with Iphones and they are all very jealous of the extraordinary qualities that my phone has that that the iPhone does not have. I really can't recommend this phone enough.
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Inexpensive, Durable, Realistic color, Lightweight, better then the iphone
I would recommend this to a friend!

I have owned an Android phone, iphone, and Windows Phone 7. I definitely believe this phone is far superior to any of these.

I would have to say that this is a great phone, the best of all the other Windows Phone 7's. The screen is large, very responsive, and has a good screen resolution. Blacks are black and whites are white, colors pop, and everything is very clear.
Pros: Bright display, Inexpensive, Durable, Realistic color, Lightweight

I've had the iphone 2g, an Andriod phone and the new Iphone 4. I really have fell in love with my Focus, what a great product. The windows 7 operating system even in its early stages just feels write. It's only gonna get better with updates, love the live tiles. The ease of linking all my contacts emails as well as social networks all in one. The focus not only works well its nice to look at everyday. The screen just pops, so bright and sharp. I hope Samsung continues to support the focus in the future with new models.
Pros: Bright display, Inexpensive, Lightweight, windows 7 phone
Cons: custom ringtones

Have has this phone since Dec 2010 and I've loved it. I've dropped it on the pavement a dozen times with no issues (screen protector film prevented scratches). Very fast and not much lacking since Microsoft released the Copy & Paste update on March. On Thur 06/02/11, I left my Focus on my rear bumper and it fell off on a four lane road. Before I remembered and found the phone it had been run-over at least once. I am writing this review from said phone. The glass is shattered and being held together by the screen protector, but it is still working perfectly fine.
Pros: Bright display, Inexpensive, Durable, Realistic color, Lightweight
