Microsoft Windows Phone 7 Questions & Answers
Thoughts on MS's latest mobile OS
Follow Discussion
I had the chance to play a bit with windows phone 7 device (HTC 7 Pro) and I'm not very impressed. The interface looks stunning with lots of animations and effects and it is very simple, but I don't understand why did the have to make all apps in single list, It takes forever to scroll through them. Furthermore the side scrolling looks nice, but it is not very comfortable to use at least for me. Have you guys played with it? What do you think?

I've never played with it. Still I think, that it will take 2 or 3 years to become a great OS.
I agree with that statement especially when I read about the bricked phones from the first WP7 update
I've read that as well, I wonder who will cover the repair costs MS or Samsung (i read it happens with certain samsung phones). The OS actually looks promising, but not mature enough, yet.
After a year of development and debugging WP7 might become a good OS...but for now it is a compilation of complications :)
Not to forget that their app store is still empty (at least it's not full as the Android market and Apple store)
They need a lot more development and apps indeed...otherwise it is going to be an epic fail
I read that the Marketplace has the highest growth among the other stores
But they still need a lot of development... :)
