Samsung Focus

I upgraded from an older LG cell phone to the new Samsung Focus last week. I must say it was like going from a Model A to a Corvette!! Wow! What a phone. Being retired I didn't need all of the beeps and whistles, but this is one fun phone to play with and use. It will only get better with the Windows 7 features. There are a few things I would've designed differently, but overall a very nice and easy phone to use. I highly recommend the Focus.
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Realistic color, Lightweight, touch screen
Cons: short battery life after charge
I would recommend this to a friend!

Awesome phone hardware with fresh new OS

Love the phone. The camera is probably my favorite part - great photos, great optional settings, and fast access with a dedicated camera button.
Love the new Windows Phone OS and the fresh way to use a cellphone. After 2+ years with an iPhone, this is a great step up to a next generation phone. Loving my time with it.

I'm not a phone guru but the Samsung Focus windows phone is the best phone i've ever seen. The bright, vivid screen is amazing. The apps are awesome and its not complicated to get to know the features of the phone, which is important to me. iPhone has a serious run for the their money
Pros: Bright display, Inexpensive, Durable, Realistic color, Lightweight
Cons: low battery life

I can't describe how much I love this phone. Its slim, light, the buttons are in the right place. The operating system is second two none. It takes excellent pictures and feels great in the hand.
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Durable, Realistic color, Lightweight
Cons: expensive

I was holding off on getting this type of phone. What a mistake that was! This rocks, plain and simple. It replaced my PDA, ZuneHD (which I still love) and old phone at once.
Pros: Bright display, Inexpensive, Durable, Lightweight

Great phone, but where's the micro sd?

Great screen (supposedly gorilla glass), lightweight, but still can't find a compatible micro sd card. Even Sandisk pulled out their recommended ones.
back/home/search buttons should be hardware though - too easy to touch them by accident, and they're not lit.
