So the HTC 7 Trophy is a great phone, as is the whole HTC 7 range. This might be the least remarkable of the three options, but it is also very portable meaning it will certainly have its fans. Windows 7 meanwhile offers a very nice looking alternativ...
A little too much like the other WP7 phones to really stand out
Overall, this is a good phone to use, even if there are no real headline standout features. The combination of HTCs solid and stylish handset and the cool, efficient Windows Phone 7 innards is highly successful. David Phelan...
Wellbalanced performance, Highquality construction
Camera is nothing spectacular, No DLNA

Fast processor, fresh UI, nicely sized screen
No microSD card slot, fiddly/slow camera, no task manager

HTC's Trophy is not the best smartphone on the market. It's not even the best Windows Phone 7 phone. To make matters worse, you'll often find the Trophy sitting side-by-side with the equivalently priced LG Optimus 7 when shopping for a new WP7 handset in ...

Camera quality is disappointing. Battery life could be better
The HTC Trophy isn't Verizon's most powerful or advanced smartphone, but if you don't need all the bells and whistles, the Windows Phone offers great ease of use and good integration of features in a sleek package....
Sharp design , Excellent WP7 user experience , Easy media syncing with Zune
Average battery life , Same flaws and shortcomings as all WP7 phones
The Trophy matches its good looks with solid performance, but we can't help but feel HTC could have done more to help this phone stand out from the pack....
