The Samsung Infuse 4G is AT&T's latest Android smartphone, and it's billed as the carrier's fastest 4G device and the thinnest smartphone available in the U.S. The Infuse will be available starting May 15 for $199.99 with a two-year contract.

Features
The Infuse 4G isn't the most advanced smartphone available but it has a decent set of features, including a 1.2GHz processor, an 8-megapixel camera with 720p HD video recording, and Android 2.2.1.

Design
The Infuse 4G has an extra-large 4.5-inch Super AMOLED Plus touch screen, which is great for viewing Web pages and video. However, it also makes for a large device, as the smartphone measures 5.2 inches tall by 2.8 inches wide.

Super-thin
Fortunately, the Infuse is only 8.9mm thin, so in the hand, the smartphone actually feels manageable. It's also pretty light at 4.9 ounces.

Camera
The Infuse 4G has two cameras: a front-facing 1.3-megapixel camera for video calls and an 8-megapixel camera and flash on back.

Picture quality
We've seen good picture quality from Samsung's other camera phones, but this time shots taken indoors had a pinkish tint. It did fine, however, on outdoor shots, and HD video clips looked great.
