Microsoft fired its latest shot on Monday(02-15-1010) against competitors like Apple and Google in the battle for the cell phone software market. Windows Phone 7 Series, unveiled at Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, will be on phones by the end of the year and is a complete rewrite of the Windows Mobile operating system. Windows Phone 7 Series is the successor to Microsoft’s line of Windows Mobile phone operating systems.
The visual and underlying differences in the operating system are almost too numerous to mention, including a completely (and we do mean completely) upended user interface, an emphasis on finger-based touchscreen input, deep social networking integration, fully branded and expansive Zune and Xbox components, and extremely strict hardware requirements for partners. A couple familiar touchstones from the past include plans for Outlook and Office support, as well as licensing to a wide variety of third party hardware vendors — despite the name change, Microsoft still isn’t building any phones itself.
Part of what makes Windows Phone 7 Series a departure for Microsoft is that the company is taking a much bigger role in dictating what hardware is allowed to run the OS. While we still haven’t seen an actual device produced by a manufacturer for retail (the demo unit being shown off is a prototype slab allegedly made by Garmin-Asus, but not a device that might ever come to market), Microsoft has a very clear picture of what they want these units to be built like. Still, while the company is laying down the ground rules in an attempt to create a more consistent experience across phones, it doesn’t mean there won’t be variety. You’ll see variation in devices (yes, some with and some without a keyboard), but there will be a much more steady tone in the nature of Windows Phone 7 Series handsets. Here’s a look at some of the minimum specs detailed to us thus far:
Large WVGA screen with a single aspect ratio (which means BlackBerry-style devices won’t be readily available to begin with)
Five specific hardware buttons required: Start, back, search (a dedicated Bing button), camera button, and power — no more, no less
Capacitive multitouch
CPU and GPU requirements (beginning with Qualcomm’s Snapdragon as the go-to processor)
WiFi
AGPS
Accelerometer
FM radio
High resolution camera
As we said, Microsoft is showing the OS off on unbranded prototype hardware. It’s a simplistic slate phone with a 3.7-inch capacitive touchscreen, what appears to be a front-facing camera (a point we haven’t heard the company sound off on yet)… and not much else. We still have plenty of unanswered questions on hardware, not just about that camera, but storage specs, whether or not we’ll be able to use microSD or some form of removable storage, and how we’ll go about connecting these devices to our laptops.
