Samsung Focus S and Focus Flash release date and pricing
Samsung WP 7.5

Official release date and pricing was recently announced for the Samsung Focus S and the Samsung Focus Flash.

Windows mobile gambling fans have been waiting for the official announcement for the phones for over a month now. AT&T, the carrier where the smartphone duo will first become available, named the pricing and the release date.

The Samsung Focus S will fall into the hands of mobile casinos fans for $199.99 and the entry-level Focus Flash will only cost $49.99. Both phones go on sale on November 6 and customers will have to sign a two-year deal with AT&T.

Both smartphones are based on Windows Phone 7.5 Mango, but the difference naturally lies in the feature list. The Focus S comes with a 4.3 inch SuperAMOLED screen, 1GB of RAM, 8MP primary and 1.3MP secondary cameras and a 1.4GHz CPU will provide more than enough power to regulars of Windows mobile casinos.

The Focus Flash is more modest and packs just a 3.7 inch SuperAMOLED, with the same 1.4GHz CPU, but slightly cheaper 5MP back snapper. The phone will have 512MB of RAM and offer the same connectivity options as its big brother.

In any case just 50 bucks for a Windows Phone 7.5 device? Why don’t I get myself three of those? A very generous pricing approach from both Samsung and AT&T. I wish more manufacturers would bring the latest technology into the masses at affordable prices.
