WP7-cost smartphones greatly reduced

devices based on operating system Windows Phone 7 is not used until the excessive demand. The new mobile OS from Microsoft is quite good, but at an early stage of development. Perhaps this is the reason for cautious attitude of consumers to the new smart phones.

Another reason for the relatively low popularity may be that all WP7-machines are fairly expensive. Some manufacturers are aware of the latest issue and decided to make big discounts on phones with Windows Phone 7.

For example, HTC 7 Trophy is a pretty attractive device, offering users a Qualcomm processor of 1 GHz, 512 MB RAM, 8 GB internal flash memory, 3.8-inch screen with 480 × 800. Today, European customers can buy the unit for just € 180. At the same time to run the recommended price was € 400.

Samsung i8700 Omnia 7 is based on the same CPU, but equipped with a 4-inch AMOLED screen with 480 × 800. Other characteristics generally repeated and consistent features of HTC smartphone with the price of € 500. However, the device is no longer available for € 500 or even € 400. It costs € 250. The same situation is with LG E900 Optimus 7, which is similar to the characteristics of the device HTC: its price has been reduced from € 380 to € 190. The cost of Dell Venue, however, fell “only” € 100 for one month.

It’s pretty alarming sign, which may indicate that producers tend to sell their vehicles. Let us see what alliance will bring Microsoft and Nokia Windows Phone 7 if she could become a real competitor to Android and iOS.
