The Smartphone App Review is to start providing app reviews of Windows Phone 7 applications.
Microsoft’s latest iteration of its mobile operating system has been causing quite a stir in the tech world, and we are pleased to announce that we will begin reviewing apps for the platform.
Windows 7 does things quite differently from other mobile operating systems, with its nice looking ’tile’ system, minimum spec requirements for handsets and deep integration with Xbox Live and Windows Live, so it will be interesting to see how the first wave of apps stack up against some of the big boys out there.
We have had our hot little hands on a HTC HD 7 for a week now, and we do love it, but with a reservation. While the OS is very pretty and extremely easy to use, the lack of multitasking (for third party apps at least) is a real pain. Luckily Microsoft have plans to fix this, as this issue does hold the platform back.
Our first review will be ilomilo, and you can expect it to drop very soon.
