Windows Mobile 7 Rumours; LG Apollo and HTC Obsession (Diamond 3?) Lead the Pack

Labels: , , , , , , ,


Well, this is a pretty big day for Windows Mobile 7 rumours. There'll reportedly be two versions of WinMo 7 - which you can check out at Engadget. Basically, there'll be a Windows Phone 7 Business Edition and a Windows Phone 7 Media Edition. The Business Edition is a "stripped down" version of the OS and the Media Edition will have things like HD media playback and capture, social-networking integration. The more interesting piece of news is the rumour of new future WinMo 7 handsets.


First up is the LG Apollo. This handset will reportedly feature a 3.8-inch AMOLED capacitive multi-touchscreen display with a 1,280 x 720 resolution, a 10MP AF camera with a flash and the ability to record 720p HD video, a Qualcomm QSD8650 1.3GHz CPU, CDMA / GSM connectivity (a world phone), 1GB of RAM, 1GB of ROM, a microSD card slot, and a 1,400 mAh battery. This is pretty impressive coming from LG and it should be one of their first WinMo 7 handsets since it should launch in August / September of this year.


Next up is the HTC Obsession which will feature a 3.7-inch AMOLED capacitive multi-touchscreen display, a 5MP AF camera with a flash and the ability to record 720p HD video, a Qualcomm QSD8250 1GHz CPU, GSM / HSDPA connectivity, 512MB of RAM, 512MB of ROM, 4GB of internal storage, a microSD card slot, and a 1,230 mAh battery. This one should be one of their first WinMo 7 handsets as well and it's set to launch in October of this year.

Update: According to WMPowerUser, the HTC Obsession may actually be launched on AT&T and T-Mobile as the HTC Diamond3

These specs are pretty damn impressive but will 720p displays even matter on such a small display? That's really not up to us to decide because it'll happen anyway.
