Very similar to other Windows Phone 7 mobiles; not many apps in the app store yet

Abstract: The HTC 7 Trophy is an odd sort of phone to review – compared to its Windows Phone 7 brothers and sisters it has practically no defining features, other than the same slick OS that responds stunningly under the finger, screen scrolling around to the...
We feel that interest in the HTC 7 Trophy will mainly hinge on whether or not you have an Xbox and play online regularly. If not then you might want to check out one of the other HTC Windows Phone 7 phones instead. That said the HTC 7 Trophy is a decen...
Good build quality, Excellent performance, Decent camera, High internal memory
Very expensive, Battery not so impressive
