Hands On With the Samsung Focus 2 for AT&T

The Samsung Focus 2 is AT&T's new entry-level Windows Phone, running for $49 with contract.

The Samsung Focus II is surrounded by a band of chromed plastic that wraps around the back.

The Focus 2 isn't that thin, at 11mm, but it feels comfortable to hold.

The Focus 2 comes with 8GB of on-board memory; 6.2GB was free on this test unit.

The Focus 2 has a slick, white plastic back with a 5-megapixel camera embedded in it.

The Focus 2 is smaller than the competing HTC One S, which also has a 4-inch screen but has a longer bezel.

The Focus 2 is 11mm thick, which is thicker than the HTC One S but not unmanageable.

The Focus 2 comes with the usual bloatware, which Microsoft keeps to a relative minimum.

Samsung offers a few exclusive apps for its Windows Phones, including an Instagram competitor.

A combination of super-fast LTE and an efficient OS means the Focus 2 loads Web pages very quickly.
