Early reviews have been positive. PC World states that "… this is one of the best (and most affordable) Windows Phone 7 devices you can buy. If you have been looking for a good smartphone on a budget then this is the phone for you". The Verge rated it at a 7.1 out of 10, touting its design, software, and performance, while suffering through poor call quality and camera performance. Engadget praises the "unassuming phone", concluding that "You'll make some sacrifices on the camera, storage and battery fronts, but if you can live with that the Focus is a veritable steal".
