Windows Phone 7



It took Microsoft a long time, but it’s finally here - Windows Phone 7 (now sans the ‘Series’). It’s the software giant’s spiritual successor to Windows Mobile, its answer to iOS and Android, and Redmond’s chance to once again vie for a piece of the smartphone market.

We’ve been following Windows Phone 7 closely since its inception, fleshing out at MIX 10, and carry through to its official debut earlier this month. Now it’s finally time to really see what Windows Phone 7 has in store, and what Microsoft’s vision for the future of handheld computing really looks like. The competition is fierce and getting fiercer, and Microsoft already had one false start with its ill-fated KIN series of devices. We’ve been playing with three Windows Phone 7 devices - the HTC Surround, Samsung Focus, and LG Quantum 7, and thus far WP7 looks like it’s headed for success.
