What are the actual specs of the Samsung Focus? I am new to WP7, switching over from webOS, and I have seen so many conflicting hardware specs on this phone. I hear it is the best none the less. So is it REALLY 512 RAM and 1gb ROM?
Well, it's about time you came here. Early reviews were indeed muddy on RAM, probably because source docs like this Samsung one didn't help. Here is another specs page and a review where they corrected themselves on RAM. Welcome, and just start loading and enjoying your new device. You'll find many WebOS orphans here.
I will def still be using my touchpad. Pre 2 just isn't hacking it anymore. Battery life even with patches and data off and all the tricks is just so terrible
Also I was wondering is the Samsung Focus from AT&T got the Mango update yet. I see where people with the Foucs 1.4 havent gotten it, which version is the one that AT&T offers?
ATT has both rev 1.3 and 1.4 Focus devices. You need to check to make sure which device you have the 1.4 has issues which have caused delays in getting the mango update getting finaliuzed. The 1.3 update is out and it can be forced. If you get 1.3 then find the force update threads and follow the instructions.
It would be nice if they just updated it for both revs. I know from what I read that 1.4 will get the update, but it is just a waiting game. I want to go with the Focus because from everything I have seen, it is a super solid phone hardware wise. And it doesn't hurt that it is really cheap to buy off contact. I am not due for a upgrade with ATT until October 2012
