Review Samsung ATIV S Smartphone

A new star in the Windows sky. Samsung offers a direct competitor to the HTC 8X and the Nokia Lumia 920 with the ATIV S; all three devices run Windows Phone 8. Where are the small but subtle differences and can it ascend to the Windows Phone 8 throne? The triumvirate is now complete.
Pros:
  • Good build quality and low weight
  • HD Super AMOLED Display
  • Completely smooth operating system
  • High quality camera
  • Removable battery
  • Storage extension via micro SD card
  • Long battery runtime
  • The main camera produces very good pictures and can replace less expensive digital cameras.
Cons:
  • Retail price: 549 Euros
  • Small scope of delivery
  • The app variety is still small - we are spoiled by the Apple App Store or the Google Play Store.

Samsung Ativ S review

If I asked you to name a manufacturer of Windows Phone-based handsets it is very likely that you'd come up with Nokia. The company has plenty of models available, and it has worked hard in its partnership with Microsoft to offer some good software add-ons that help its brand stand out.
Pros:
  • Huge screen
  • Nice physical design
  • Good battery life
  • Nice camera
Cons:
  • No 4G
  • Lacklustre add-on apps

Samsung ATIV S Review

Design-wise, the Samsung ATIV S looks like a smaller version of the Galaxy Note 2 with Windows Phone 8 inside. Samsung designed a few elements slightly differently, probably to differentiate the ATIV S from its larger Android-powered sibling, however it really feels like owning a Galaxy-series...
