AT&T Confirms WP7 Phones: HTC TITAN, Samsung Focus S and the Samsung Focus Flash And 4G Windows Phones
|Wow what a way to start a Monday. Here’s the specs on the phones:
Samsung Focus S
The Samsung Focus™ S builds on the success of the award-winning and highest-selling Windows Phone in the U.S., the Samsung Focus™. Featuring a 4.3-inch Super AMOLED Plus display, 1.4 GHz processor, 4G-capable speeds and a thin profile at 8.55 millimeters. It includes front facing 1.3-megapixel and a rear facing 8-megapixel cameras. The Samsung Focus S will find its way into a lot of pockets this fall.
HTC TITAN
Debuting as the largest screen in AT&T’s smartphone portfolio at 4.7 inches, HTC TITAN™ fits comfortably in the palm of your hand. Watch video from AT&T U-Verse Mobile or play Xbox LIVE® games on the largest screen yet for a Windows Phone. Running a 1.5 GHz processor and an 8-megapixel camera with dual LED flash, HTC TITAN will feed the senses.
Samsung Focus Flash
Designed to hit the market packed with value, Samsung Focus™ Flash’s 3.7-inch Super AMOLED screen will both fit in pockets and be light on pocketbooks with the full power of Windows Phone 7.5 inside. As fast and lightweight as it is compact, it runs a 1.4 GHz processor and a 5-megapixel camera plus front facing camera.
What else?
- New 4G Windows Phones in the fourth quarter include three new 4G devices, two from Samsung and one from HTC.
- AT&T sells more Windows Phones than any other carrier.
- AT&T will be among the first carriers to start updating existing phones and all Windows Phones already sold by AT&T will receive the Windows Phone 7.5 update this fall.
Very very nice. This is getting exciting.
Updated to Mango last night and this OS absolutely kicks ass.
Hmmm, it will be interesting to see how bad the HTC screen is compared to the Samsung cheap plastic feeling exterior shells. I had intended to get the Titan but now I am beginning to wonder.
@Doug Smith: I too had planned on getting the Titan but now i’m with the Focus S pending screen and phone tests. That and of course launch dates because unlike last fall I believe these releases will be rolling releases like every other phone has.
So much for hte 4in screen sweet spot. Its either go large or go pedestrian it seems. The people have spoken. Now I can really see Apple releasing a 4in Retina Display and absolutely demolishing their sales records.
In any case i’m excited and it’ll be interesting to see how the upcoming Galaxy SII sells compared to the Focus S.
And I get poo’d on by T-Mobile yet again. >:-/
@Murani Lewis: to be honest i doubt iPhone’s screen size would change and have retina display. they don’t want to change the screen resolution again, as they only did it last year. it would tick a lot of people off.
Looks like I will be waiting to see what Nokia has to offer. A 4″ screen “is” the sweet spot. Don’t want to get a backpack for my phone (and spare batteries).
