I have had an HTC HD2 for about a year. I have liked the size of the screen, it is great for watching movies. I have also liked the fact that is very customizable. It can run windows 6.5 and thanks to smart developers such as those on XDA developers it can also run windows 6.55, various iterations of Android OS, and now windows phone 7. I used to have a tmobile g1 and have had prior exposure to Android. It is getting better and better and from the examples of Honey Comb that I saw at CES 2011 it is on its way to becoming quite a nice system.
I recently have had the opportunity to use Windows Phone 7. I have actually been fairly impressed. It is a major improvement over windows 6.5. It is leaning more towards an Apple Iphone(trade mark of Apple) product in terms of the way it works.
One thing that has impressed me with Microsoft’s Windows Phone 7 is that, though it has less applications than its’ competitors, it does have some decent ones out of the box. It has Netflix, which allows for watching movies and tv shows on demand. I have been reasonably impressed by Zune as well. I think that Android needs the option of a solution like Itunes or Zune for the people that want easy integration. Android does have the Android Market(Google) but it is not an integrated solution for apps, music and video.
I think that Windows Phone 7 had a few present limitations that might improve in the future. It lacks the mass storage capabilities of Android. I like to be able to easily drag and drop, business docs, music and video from my computer onto my phone and watch them or listen to or view the files.
I also think that Windows Phone 7 would benefit from a better keyboard solution such as either one know as “better keyboard” which can be purchased from the Android market. It allows total customization of the keyboard appearance.
I feel that Windows phone 7 is a decent product that can only get better. It needs the ability to easily install apps from the web or from your computer, videos from other sources, and music via drag and drop.
It does have a nice video and movie playing solution with Zune, and Netflix as well as carrier based video on demand services such as Tmobile TV.
I wonder why Netflix is not available for android it definitely needs to be.
