So, the Omnia lineup is no more. To match Microsoft's profound OS overhaul, Samsung chose to start with a clean slate. The Ativ line is the new home of Samsung's WP devices and it has room for smartphones, tablets and tablet PCs. Windows is now a consiste...
Abstract: The Ativ S takes on Samsung's now familiar shape, with its smoothed curves reminiscent of the Galaxy Note 2. As with most smartphones these days, the 4.8-inch Super AMOLED screen dominates. In fact, it's usurped the Nokia Lumia 920 as the Windows Phone wi...
Huge screen, Nice physical design, Good battery life, Nice camera
No 4G, Lacklustre addon apps
At the time of writing this, Samsung’s Ativ S is the Windows Phone 8 handset with the largest screen, and the screen is bright, clear and a real eye-catcher. Slick operation under the fingers, NFC, plenty of memory and a generally stylish physical desig...
The Samsung Ativ S is a highly capable handset. Windows Phone 8 is growing in stature and the whilst far from complete or even competing with iOS or Android, the range of apps is growing daily. There are still some improvements needed but for day to day...
The Ativ S seems to have the wow factor. A device that looks not unlike a Galaxy SIII in design, a stunning screen and an OS that flows speedily is making an interesting proposition. The couple of days that I have so far spent with the device have been...

Abstract: €439.99 samsung.com/ukIs this the Windows Phone version of the Galaxy S3? Very nearly.It€s very tempting to see Windows Phone as a two horse race between HTC and Nokia. HTC inked a deal with Microsoft to make its Windows Phone 8 handsets the official laun...
The Samsung Ativ S may not be the most striking of Windows Phones - in between Nokia and HTC’s colourful efforts you could easily overlook it - but when it comes to hardware, it’s easily our favourite. For its large size, it’s incredibly light and thin (just 135g), with well placed buttons that are still easy to reach. It looks like a cross between a Samsung Galaxy S3 and a Samsung Galaxy Note 2,
We can’t really fault the Samsung Ativ S for its hardware: it may not be as striking as the Nokia Lumia 920, nor possess the same fantastic PureView camera, but it’s also a full third lighter, and not nearly as fat.The software is where the issues lie. We’re not going to linger on Windows Phone 8 itself: unlike Android, its core doesn’t vary between devices since Microsoft doesn’t let manufacture
The Samsung Ativ S doesn’t push the boat out when it comes to build like the Nokia Lumia 920, but its big, gorgeous display and light weight make it the most comfortable of the top notch Windows Phone 8 blowers so far. Sadly, Samsung’s phoned in the so...
Abstract: Today Samsung launched the Ativ S in the UK, taking on flagship Windows Phone 8 smartphones from Nokia and HTC in the process. Featuring an identical design to the Galaxy S III , Samsung will be hoping that the Ativ S can deliver the Windows Phone 8 equiv...
We'll be back with more thoughts on the Samsung Ativ S when we get a sample in for review but for now it looks like Samsung has achieved what it did with the Samsung Galaxy S3: it's a phone that packs in all the latest specs but lacks that desirability fa...

Thin, stylish design, Biggest screen of any Windows Phone 8 device, Strong specs, MicroSD support
Limited WP8 apps, No 4G, Made of slippery plastic
Thanks to an excellent build, good specs, beefy storage and an open body design, the Ativ S is an excellent WP8 option. However, its downright frustrating how close it comes to being the ultimate Windows Phone device, only to see it fall short in key plac...
