HTC 7 Mozart Review
Out of all of Microsoft’s hardware launch partners for Windows Phone 7, HTC has probably invested the most in supporting the new OS. The company’s Windows Phone 7 team is the second largest around, lagging only Microsoft itself, and with four handsets in the first wave and a fifth to follow before the end of the year, there’s a fair chance that most newcomers to the platform will have an HTC device. The HTC 7 Mozart is an Orange and T-Mobile exclusive in the UK, ironically the company’s smallest in terms of display but packing the highest-spec camera. Check out the full SlashGear review after the cut.
Samsung Focus Review
Samsung may not be able to compete with the sheer number of Windows Phone 7 devices HTC has brought to the table, but the company has definitely put its best foot forward with the Samsung Focus. Headed to AT&T in the US and Rogers Wireless in Canada, the Focus uses Samsung’s own Super AMOLED display technology in a slimline, pocket-friendly chassis. Is it – and Microsoft’s new smartphone OS – good enough to see off established challengers like Android and iPhone 4? Check out the full SlashGear review after the cut.

HTC HD2 review
Twelve months ago HTC shook up the Windows Mobile world with the launch of the Touch HD, a smartphone that offered a vast touchscreen, lashings of connectivity and the latest version of their UI tweaking, TouchFLO 3D, to produce what was hitherto thought impossible: an alluring Windows Phone. Now, the company have attempted just such a revolution with Windows Mobile 6.5 in the shape of the HTC HD2. They’ve upped their game with a speedy Snapdragon processor, even vaster display and a fresh UI that’s been educated by their recent work on Android. Can the HTC HD2 again do the unthinkable, and give us a reason to love Windows Mobile?
