With the upcoming release of the HTC Radar 4g, and the Nokia Lumia 800, and Nokia Lumia 900 coming out in the upcoming months. I want to know which past, present, and future Windows Phone in Canada is your favorite
Nokia Lumia 710 which was release in Canada on Rogers is a
quality phone for the price it is a low to mid-range Windows Phone that can
help people get accustomed to the Mango experience. The costs of the phone is
$254.99 outright in Canada, which is a steal considering that for that price
you can’t get a better phone for that price, and in my opinion better than most
mid-range Android phones.
Then we have the HTC Radar for people in Ontario it is
coming soon and it will be released on Wind Mobile. This phone will be Wind
Mobile’s first Windows Mobile phone, but it will cost a steep price $399
outright and $99 on Windtab plus. This phone on Wind Mobile will be released on
February 22. My opinion on this phone is I think this phone is overpriced.
Firstly, the processor on this phone is only 1GHZ, and that is low compared to
the Nokia Lumia 710, which is cheaper and its processor is 1.4GHZ. Secondly,
Nokia makes quality phones, and people that have Nokia WP7 Phones will have
first access to some premium apps and Nokia makes quality apps like Nokia Maps.
Thirdly, one major advantage the HTC Radar has over the Nokia Lumia 710 is it
has a front facing camera. On the contrary that is an important feature, but
currently Window phones do not have Skype or other apps that help with video
conferencing with front facing camera. It is not a huge thing because the Skype
app will most likely come in a couple of months, and make the HTC Radar more
future proof. Lastly, the downside of both of these phones is they only have
8GB of internal storage that is not expandable.
Nokia Lumia 900 is a beautiful phone it has such a sleek design,
and I think it is the best looking phone on the market. This phone has the perfect
screen size it is sporting a 4.3 inch super AMOLED screen. The screen is also
using a Gorilla Glass, which means that the screen of the phone will be more
durable, and be able to withstand a beating. The phone will also be sporting a
pretty good camera 8MP camera with
Carl Zeiss lens, and a 1MP front facing camera. The Nokia Lumia 900 will have a
pretty fast processor it will be using a 1.4GHZ processor. The Nokia Lumia 900
is the most hyped Windows Phone to come to North America. This phone has had
amazing sales in Europe, and is usually sold out at most retailer. This phone
has won many awards at CES for having the best phone at the expo. Currently,
this phone is expected to be launched on the Rogers Network in Canada. Maybe
other carriers in Canada will be able to carry this quality phone, and it’s
expected to release in mid to late 2012.
I hope Canada will be able to get many
second generations Windows Phone launched in Canada from the other companies
like Samsung, LG, and some more from HTC. Canadian carriers are starting to
carry second generation Window Phones. The phones made from HTC and Samsung
like the HTC Titan and the Samsung Focus S have been released in the USA, but
didn’t get released in Canada. I think its important for Canadian carriers to pick
up Window phones because I believe they are the future, and should train their
employees on the products because many workers I have encountered are
unfamiliar with Window Phones.
Please leave a comment on which Window Phones are your favorite, and or ones that you are anticipating
