The big brother and improved version of Samsung focus. It is excellent and user friendly with Windows Phone 7.5 . It will probably suppourt windows Phone 8 if it becomes Available to update for current Windows mobiles since it is the latest generation of Windows Phones.Though it has a small bug of frreze up the improved firmware is now available and has no problem since I updated it with new firmware.Pros:1. Better pixel density than focus.2. Faster 1.4 Ghz processor.3. Is capable of 4G.5. Is latest generation of Windows phone.6. Front facing camera for skype or video chat or video call7. Excellent 5 MP camera.Cons:1. Sometimes freeze up.(though updating firmware solves it muchly) but not completely.2. Smaller screen than samsung focus(3.7 vs 4 inches)So This is an excellent phone for the price.Just go for it. For its specs the phone should be sold for a price range of $250+.Update :12 August 2012After using phone for like 4 months I have following things to say:1. I havent faced a single phone freeze after the recent tango update(there is way to trick phone to update even though AT&T doesnt push it)2. The app center is growing rapidly(In last few months as I myself have seen). There are a lots of apps tailored for your need.3. Games works great on this device no freezing and lagging.4. Some people haave said that they got a locked phone .I too got a locked phone but THIS PHONE WILL BE UNLOCKED BY AT&T FOR FREE.Just call them and ask for an unlock code. They will give it right away to you no need to goto third party unlocker.5. Battery life is superb.

I have been using smartphones since 2008, first on Windows Mobile 6 on a HTC Tilt, then iPhone 4, and I got bored of the iOS and wanted to try the Windows Mango interface. I picked up the Samsung Omnia W (the international equiv. of Focus Flash), which is the newer model that replaces the original Omnia 7, and found it simple to use since day 1. Skype is now fully integrated making it complete. Here are the details tech summary:Key features: Super AMOLED Technology, WVGA (800 x 480) Internal Display Resolution 3.7" Internal Display Size 16 Million Internal Colour Depth Gorilla Glass Quad-band GSM/GPRS/EDGE support Dual-band 3G with HSDPA 14.4 Mbps and HSUPA 5.76Mbps Windows Phone 7.5 Mango 1.4GHzQualcomm MSM8255 Snapdragon CPU, Adreno 205 GPU, 512MB of RAM 5 megapixel autofocus camera with LED flash (FRONT Facing & BACK Facing!) 720p video recording @30fps 8GB of built-in storage Standard 3.5mm audio jack Standard microUSB port (charging, hooking up to PC via Zune) Wi-Fi b/g/n Stereo Bluetooth 2.1 Mobile Office document viewer/editor Social network integration (Facebook/Google/Hotmail etc) and cloud services Built-in GPS receiver, A-GPS Stereo FM Radio with RDS 115.97 x 58.8 x 10.9mm Physical Dimension 115.3g WeightAnother good thing compared to the iPhone is the integrated Internet Explorer for web browsing.It has ability to open up to six tabs at a time, and the performance is top notch - the browser relies on hardware graphics acceleration to provide smoother graphics (and video) and animation and uses the latest (and fastest) JavaScript engine too. This is where the fast processor (1.4ghz Snapdragon CPU) really shines, and you can tell the difference compared to the 1st generation of Omnia 7 (which has slower CPU, but slightly bigger screen), released in early 2011.Overall this phone is speedy, extremely lightweight and portable (iPhone feels much heavier compared to this). I really feel this is the Smartphone for all-ages, and enjoy the simplicity and speed while meeting my daily needs (Skype, Evernote, flawless Outlook Exchange & Gmail integration, nice Zune player, and HD camera). Most importantly this is also UNLOCKED so I can just pop in a SIM when I travel (it uses the normal sized SIM, not micro-SIM).Good phone. For the ~$200 USD price, you can't go wrong.

*UPDATE*Although the phone is unlocked, the device is branded AT&T. This means you can't enable internet sharing on the phone until you visit / contact AT&T :-(Otherwise, still a great buy.-- Original Review --The phone -1) Mine came with Windows 7.10, updated itself to 7.5 with no trouble at all.2) The model I received was branded AT&T but was completely unlocked.3) Screen is bright indoors, not highly visible in direct or strong sunlight4) Audio is crisp and clear, call quality excellentThings it does well -1) Multiple email accounts! You can have more than one Exchange server account, multiple POP / IMAP accounts no problem. My old phone (Nokai e63) didn't support multiple exchange server accounts so this was a major item for me.2) Multi-calendar support! If you setup multiple accounts (Exchange, Hotmail, Google) the phone will sync your various calenders and color code each calender's items as they show up on the phone's calender. (VERY useful for me)3) Wifi works every time4) Market place - Not as many apps as Android or iPhone, but certainly a good selection nevertheless.5) Skype!6) Dual cameras, useful for item 5 above, although the cam doesn't come on automatically, you have to enable it every time.Things it doesn't do well -1) NO VPN support! Hopefully to be there in a future update :-(2) Custom ring tones - Really frustrating, you have to limit your ring tones to 40sec, the file has to be less than 1MB AND you must specify 'ringtone' as the genre for it to work. A little too much effort...3) Custom alert tones - Non-existent. You can't set a custom mp3 / wma file as your text alert or alarm tone. *rage*4) Can't copy items between calenders. *sigh*5) Switching between Wifi and Cellular data sometimes doesn't happen, you end up having to power cycle to re-connect to the cellular net after you turn off the wifiEnd Result -Perfect phone if you need to manage multiple email accounts and calenders, really fast and responsive and generally a joy to use. Skype with cam support is great if your connection is fast enough to use it.
