Microsoft shows off new Mango devices

[George P Global Moderator]

All the WP devices have same res.. and no.. it wont make it choppy at all..

Yes dual core will add to it.. but a single core isnt taking anything away from it.

And if you didnt notice NOKIAs N9 screen is pretty .. VERY PRETTY!!!!!!! check up its specs .. it has no space between screen and glass.. almost none.

and Nokia has the best outdoor screen performance due to their specially tinted glass. But agreed nobody would do Higher DPI screens because they think mass consumers dont really need that. Nor would they notice. I partially agree.

I see many many people here with big touchscreens and a res of 320x240 :p and they look damn happy!>... showing off their BRIGHTER Screen :p

anyhow..

it seems nokia N9 will come with a premium.. 16gb... no 8gb model :(

so ill be going with Omnia 7.. the front of Omnia 7 perfectly competes Nokia N9.. its the back which is pretty ordinary. Nokia N9 unibody Sh#T!!!..

You wanted an 8GB model? Everyone was raging months ago that most WP devices only had 8GB and said that it wasn't enough.

8 gb is fine as along as phones have an optional sd card slot.

If you're fine with tearing a phone open to change the card and void your warranty then ok.

some people dont need that much space in a mobile phone..

i have a NOKIA 6300 with a 512mb memory card... yes i cant put many songs on it and i wish i got a 1gb memcard.. but 1gb wouldve been awesome for me.

But 8gb?? i can PUT ALL MY FAVORITE SONGS on my WP7 device and be a happy geek :D

its enough for me.

i have a 4gb ipod touch for music and its enough... i wont need that anymore. Im gonna go with samsung Omnia 7..ill be buying it soon...

just wana see how iphone 5 looks like.. so waiting for that. Maybe that will trigger a price drop in the Omnia 7. due to screen size. and 8gb thing.

why not allow for external sd card slot.. current nokias and androids have that....

guys ive halted my purchase...

anybody know any new handsets coming post mango..

except for Nokia, Toshiba or HTC?

anybody here with good ideas of price and such can he/she tell me if i wait till october. is it possible to get any mango set with faster speed under $400 unlocked?

If not... im gettin the Omnia 8gb for $380 fully unlocked. Should i go for it? I love this over the HD7 or any other WP7 device out there right now.

And ill only wait if waiting will allow me to buy an unlocked 1.5Ghz mango phone for under $400 unlocked... which i think wont be possible. As i want a device that will be better looking than Omnia 7 and have a better display too.

Help will be really appreciated :)

Also. I dont need a front facing Camera. Or any other fancy stuff.

I would wait a little longer. The price of the Omnia 7 is likely to continue dropping and I'm sure new phones are going to be announced in the next month or so.

now thats a good thing.. :)

thanks man..

the prob is i may not get the price im getting again :p

as ive only seen 3 shops sell the omnia 7 here in Pakistan and 2 of them asked me $470 for it.. and yes the 8gb .. as there is not a single 16gb model here.

so i got a good deal i think ill final it then ! :D

will post a review soon if i get it in 2 3 days or so.

We also know about the new Samsung as well, which looks like a WP7 version of the GSII. Right now we don't know what LG is going to do, I think we'll get a new Dell device as well if you wanna try your luck with that, :p

I think this time next month we'll have a better idea of what's coming.

I wonder why Samsung always make ****ty cases?! Those black pieces of plastic make them look like a toy I'd break in a heartbeat. AMOLED is the only thing I miss on mine (HTC Surround).

They don't always. The Omnia 7 has a metal case that feels really nice in the hand.

so you bought it already?

[HawkMan]

Amoled is **** unless it's samoled+ even then some slcd's have better pq in everything but dynamic (ie meaningless) contrast.

[Zain Adeel]

yuppppppppppp

updated to No-Do latest..

not going to developer unlock.. :p coz no warrenty..

loving every bit of it!!!!..

already all set up!..

also..

Anybody who thinks the Super AMOLED sucks..ill be very honest..

the pentile matrix makes the LCD look different. But.... the PIXEL DENSITY is right on the line!.. where its not bad nor super :)

but the plus is the AWESOME BLACKS!!!..

also... i compared it with HD7 and such and no comparison!..
