Samsung’s Focus Flash will soon join the Samsung Focus S on AT&T’s shelves as the South Korea-based company’s second and third Windows Phone devices in the United States, it's packs Mango and a 1.4GHz Snapdragon, but its 3.7-inch Super AMOLED screen and $49 price. The Focus Flash offers a number of enhancements over the original Focus and the Focus Flash is smaller and more compact than the original Focus. There are plenty of phones to choose from at AT&T for $50 or less, including the iPhone 3GS and a variety of Android handsets and it’s time to think twice before passing up Microsoft’s mobile OS for Android or iOS.




The Samsung Focus Flash comes pre-loaded with the latest Windows Phone 7.5 Mango OS and everything that goes with it. You’ll have, among other things, built-in Twitter and LinkedIn, a handy Linked inbox to see all your email messages in one place and Local Scout, powered by Bing. You’ll also have a 1.4GHz processor to make sure all that sending, receiving and updating happens as quickly as possible. Software is only part of the story. The Focus Flash also has some very impressive hardware, including a large 3.7-inch Super AMOLED display. In other words, everything you see on your phone will have richer, deeper, brighter colors and will look just as rich, deep and bright from almost any angle in almost any light – perfect for sharing with friends. 4G speed is a lot more than a bullet point. It’s a whole new level of mobile processing performance. It’s faster browsing, uploading and downloading. It’s smoother video. It’s better app performance. And with this Samsung’s powerful Qualcomm1.4GHz processor, it’s connecting with your friends better and quicker than ever before.
