Windows Phone Thoughts: HTC Pro 7 Reviewed

"The HTC 7 Pro is a little delayed for some tastes - while it's still the first in the UK to offer Windows Phone 7 with a full QWERTY keyboard, it's still months behind the HTC HD7 and Samsung Omnia 7. However, the 7 Pro comes with some cheeky little extras over the standard Windows Phone 7 offering, taking Microsoft's mobile OS to the next level."

I hesitate to call this a review as it's so brief that you barely get a feel for the device. Having said that, Gareth cuts right down to the meat of matter - this baby's got copy and paste right out of the box, which raises some interesting questions regarding what's holding up the NoDo update for everybody else. On the flip side, the keyboard's apparently below HTC's usual standards, which makes the trade-off of having it against the extra weight you have to carry less appealing.
