Bells were ringing, and the bell towers are already in sight. The Samsung South Korea prepares to launch its new Windows Phone phones for the segment, and will be called Samsung Focus S and Samsung Focus Flash. These devices will be the terminals with which the manufacturer takes advantage of the return to the Microsoft platform, whose update to Windows Phone 7 Mango is imminent (it is said that it could arrive this week).
There are no photographs of the terminals that can be seen in stores with the names of Samsung Focus S and Samsung Focus Flash, although some of the specifications that this pair of smartphones will display have been known. Surely, from the name of the first of them, you begin to suppose that we will be facing a review of the Galaxy S for Windows Phone, but even more: the Samsung Focus S would be a version of the Samsung Galaxy S II, adapting the hardware to the system of Microsoft (as already said a few weeks ago).
Thus, the Samsung Focus S will be a terminal with a 4.3-inch screen and WVGA resolution (800 x 480 pixels), which will carry a dual-core processor at a speed of 1.4 GHz. It will not lack the same camera as the Galaxy S II, with a maximum resolution of eight megapixels and compatibility for FullHD video recordings at 30 frames per second.
And all, how could it be less, in a slim structure of only 8.5 millimeters in profile. Since there are no images of the terminal itself, we do not know if it will bet on the metal casing (heavier, although elegant and resistant) or the plastic structure (with which it gains in lightness and loses in robustness).
The Samsung Focus Flash would be, on the other hand, an option more oriented to an incoming audience, although not less demanding for that. The screen would be tiny, up to 3.7 inches, with the same resolution as the Samsung Focus S. The camera, meanwhile, would have a high quality of five megapixels, and although it has not said anything to respect, it seems unlikely to be a function of reserve HD video (either 720p or 1080p). The processor of this terminal will have a power of 1.4 GHz.
Unfortunately, it has been the North American AT&T that has revealed the existence of these terminals, so it is not yet clear if these devices will be available in Europe or will travel suitable versions retouched in features and names.
