Right side

The right side of the Samsung Focus has a volume rocker and a camera button. Overall, the Focus is quite a slim device, so you should have no problem slipping this into a pants pocket. We did think it felt a bit more plasticky than the other devices, however.

Camera

The Focus is equipped with a 5-megapixel camera with flash and offers 720p video capture.

Samsung Omnia 7

The Samsung Omnia 7 is a Windows Phone 7 device for the international market, though pricing and carrier information were not released at this time. The main difference between the Omnia 7 and the Focus is in hardware. For example, the Omnia 7 features a physical Menu button whereas the Focus has all touch-sensitive keys.

Battery door

In addition, the Omnia 7 features a stainless steel battery door, which gives the phone a more solid and high-quality feel than the all-plastic Focus.

Nothing crazy going on up top, just a 3.5mm headphone jack and Micro-USB port.
