    News - HTC WP7 phone press shot leaks

    That’s about it really, apart from some speculation about specs.

    Hehe, made me chuckle too, wait, mic at the bottom earpiece at the top?? Someone call the fruit co.'s lawyers!!!

    They definitely need the speed of the latest chips in these to be fighting the Sensation et al. Look forward to seeing how they fare, with iphone 5 and its cheap sister around the corner.

    I don't get the perceived need for faster chips, I have the HD7 and the current single core chip is plenty fast enough, i've never experienced any slow down or lack of performance, everything has always been silky smooth.

    I'm going to hang on til WP8. Mainly because of the 1080p video recording. Otherwise this looks not too bad, but equally doesnt stand out from their other phones. It just looks like a stretched Wildfire to me.

    HTC do need to improve their camera lenses massively. I was shocked at how much better the iPhone 4 is to theirs. Low light shots without flash are so much better, and the video is very smooth compared to HTC.

    I have the HD7 also, and an iphone 3GS, the HD7 is great, and when spotify hits wp7 (or mango) the iphone goes. Yes the HD7 interface and simple stuff is smooth, as you'd expect, the better games however are very slow to load, the extra umph +2core will also mean it can take advantage of mango's multithreading

    Not to worry! If this phone has a 1.5 GHz CPU it IS Dual-Core!

    Michael A. Lococo: posted to QUALCOMM Incorporated

    Question: Are all 1.5 Ghz Snapdragon processors dual core? If true, would it be safe to say that a cell phone is dual core if it has a 1.5 Ghz processor?

    Hi Michael. Yes, only Snapdragon S3 devices have a CPU of 1.5 GHz, and those are dual-core. For more info, go to:

    Michael A. Lococo Thank you for your Response! That is good news! Bring on the HTC Omega! :-)

    By the way I am not convinced this is a real photo of the Omega! I remember last year how there was this huge hype leading up to the introduction of WP7... Anybody else remember those pics of the HD3 with those wonderful specs... also look at the Icon on the back of the phone... don't you think they would use the new one?

    There has been a move to silver/grey, maybe because Apple has yet to be granted a patent on that colour, but the phone is still dangerously rectangular.

    Not sure why you'd want to use spotify over Zune pass, because the compression of Spotify on the 'droid at least is just awful if your on anything above average headphones.

    I would say some games are a bit slow to load, but I doubt that will be cleared up by the faster CPU, most of it appears flash n RAM bottleneck.
