Live in the moment with Windows® Phone 8

The latest Windows Phone 8 operating system uses live tiles to keep you updated on the weather, social media, photos, and important business documents at a glance and in real time. You also get to choose which tiles are more important to you, and rearrange and resize them to create your personal screen. And because this friendly and smooth interface is similar to Windows 8 on computers and tablets, you can have a seamless experience with all your info, no matter what device you use.

Everything looks better on a Super AMOLED™ touchscreen

The breathtaking color and vivid detail of the Super AMOLED touchscreen is a visual delight, no matter what you’re looking at. A simple text message is sharper, movies and games are brighter and more colorful, the detail in a complex graphic suddenly becomes more vivid, and all your photographs come to life. Even have clearer face-to-face video chat with the 1.2MP front-facing camera. And because it’s a Super AMOLED screen, you can enjoy all this indoors or outdoors, even in direct sunlight.

Have it all and have it fast

The speed of 4G LTE means you no longer have to wait minutes for files or pictures to download. A 1.5GHz dual-core processor means you’ll be packing enough power to make sure all your games and movies run smoothly. And Mobile Internet Sharing means you can even share your powerful 4G LTE connection with up to eight other devices. With added Bluetooth technology to connect to hands-free kits, headsets and more, and the Windows Phone 8 Store for all your favorite apps, games, music and podcasts, you have a phone that’s designed to give you everything except the wait.

Always be ready to capture life

A high-quality front-and rear-facing camera gives you the flexibility to capture beautiful, vivid outward-facing shots plus perfectly framed self-portraits. And because life happens in a blink of an eye, a dedicated camera button on the outside of the handset makes sure you never miss a moment. Even if your phone is asleep or on a Lock screen you are always ready to snap away.

Meet your new office

With every phone comes a mobile office. With Built for Business Enterprise features, you have a seamless user experience within the Microsoft® Office Suite. On-Device Encryption (ODE) safeguards sensitive data. The corporate email and calendar contacts support Exchange ActiveSync® (EAS). And Remote Wipe deletes content and settings, and disables the SD Card. So now no matter where you are, you can now work seamlessly and securely.

Share with a simple tap

Sharing is now as simple as a high-five. With your NFC enabled phone you can share files with other NFC enabled phones by simply tapping them together. It’s a fast and spontaneous way to share your photos, music, contacts and even websites. Say goodbye to waiting forever for downloads or having to perform multiple steps. Enable tap + send, by simply tapping the phones together.

Take it anywhere in the world

Wherever you travel in the world you now only need one phone. The ATIV Odyssey is a global-ready device and is ready to go where you go. From Mumbai to Melbourne, for business or pleasure, it’s equipped for International travel. And to help make your trip even easier it features International Assist, an option that helps correct common errors made when dialing international numbers or when dialing when abroad.
