There have been many phones out there trying to compete with the iPhone models. So far, up until this point, no phone has been able to. That may change with the debut of Windows new phone, Windows Phone 7. They have really redesigned their phone and operating system from scratch. This new product is really on the same level as the iPhone.
As popular as the Apple iPhone is, there are many disadvantages of the product that some have overlooked. While the Windows Mobile phone is available to almost all carriers, Apple iPhone is locked solely to ATT Wireless. Windows 7 Phone will be available to both GSM and CDMA carriers while the iPhone is just starting to consider partnering with CDMA. A physical keyboard may be the feature that is a deal breaker for most people and the Windows Phone has that.
As with the iPhone, Windows has a stream lined and neatly organized home screen. Each folder and icon on the home screen is called a Hub. Windows is able to fully multi task as well. With the iPhone, when you close most programs to open a new one, the program truly shuts down. It cannot run in the background.
Windows 7 Phone or WP7 (as it is nicknamed) is being marketed towards the hip teenagers to young adults. Basically, they are aiming their marketing towards those who text, IM and are socially networked. Apple markets to everyone with their generic commercials. Apple also has a vast array of features and apps geared towards everyone who could use it. WP7 is marketed to that crowd because of the extreme social network integration. Some of its phones will have Motoblur, which streamlines all social networks onto one screen.
With the popularity of ZuneHD and XBox Live, Microsoft has integrated them heavily into the phone. As the iPhone has iTunes integration as the music player, Windows has Zune HD. It is also classified as a great gaming phone because of the XBox Live integration. The iPhone can run games and has many to download on the app store, but it is not considered a gaming phone like the WP7.
Unlike the iPhone and the hefty MobileMe subscription that is needed for vital security features, WP7 has them free of charge. Find My Phone will ring, lock, erase vital information and track your phone with its GPS. It is able to do all of this remotely. This is something that Apple users have wanted. No one should have to pay for added security.
Apple has felt so safe for so long because none of the smartphones out in the market compare to the precious iPhone. With the release of WP7 and it's very competitive interface and system, it will really give Apple a run for it's money. Windows will launch it's first WP7 phone around the end of 2010.
