Exactly one year ago I got my first Windows Phone. Since then a lot has change and Windows Phone has really improved.

After the first update, called NoDo, I could leave my iPhone 4 behind and change to the HTC 7 Trophy. Of course the hardware was nowhere near the iPhone 4 but the Windows Phone OS was just great. Now one year later there is a lot of good Windows Phone hardware out there and the Windows Phone OS has improved with Mango.

I am sure there will be a lot more great Windows Phone stuff in the future.

My first days with Windows Phone 7

Posted on November 26, 2010 by Thomas Maurer

Some days ago I got myself a new Windows Phone 7. I took the HTC 7 Trophy because it was the cheapest Windows Phone 7 on the market and I really did not care about the hardware, my only interest was the Windows Phone 7 Software, otherwise I think I would by a Samsung Omnia 7 because of the great AMOLED Display.

My first impression was: “It’s really fast and something totally different”. And after now using it for a while my first impression didn’t change. I really like the social integration and the user interface. There are still some things which need to be done for the next versions.
