The good: The Samsung Ativ Odyssey is compact and affordable, and offers the clean Windows Phone 8 UI as well as 4G LTE.
The bad: The Samsung Ativ Odyssey’s small screen, blah design, and 5MP camera won’t knock your socks off.
The bottom line: The Samsung Ativ Odyssey provides an affordable but not thrilling Windows Phone 8 experience.

Description:
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 1.2-megapixel front-facing camera. And because it's a Super AMOLED screen, you can enjoy all this indoors or outdoors, even in direct sunlight.
The speed of 4G LTE means you no longer have to wait minutes for files or pictures to download. A 1.5 GHz 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.
