Windows Phone - what to buy (today)

I wanted to buy a phone with Windows Phone, try it in real life, and not twist it in my hands at exhibitions and in stores. Therefore, he collected a small selection of what is now officially sold in Russia (well, or will be sold in a week or two). Maybe someone will need. Under the katom heels of pictures and a bit of text - I will not write full TTX devices, for I will dwell on just about the same features.

My personal requirements:
1) screen up to 4 "(otherwise it does not fit in the hand)
2) memory of 16 gigabytes (although eight will come down on the phone for "trying")
3) replaceable battery (there are few communicators now)
4) normal sim card (not micro - I have several devices, between which sim cards are roaming)
5) flash as a flashlight (see the note on the item about memory).
6) lower price

HTC

HTC 7 Mozart

_{Photos potiren here}
The average index price is 11 thousand (in my edges - 14 thousand in the Connected), the screen is 3.7 ", the battery is 1300mah, removable.
The memory is 8 gigabytes, but you can open it (losing the warranty) and increase the memory - it uses the usual microSD Class4. At the same time, you can speed up if you put a card higher class.
Flash xenon, as a flashlight can not be used. All the others have LEDs.

Updated Mozart. The average index price is 17 thousand, the camera is better, the memory and battery do not change. But there is a flashlight. Screen 3.8 ". Battery 1500mah.

HTC Titan

The laptoot with a diagonal of 4.7 ", costs around 26 thousand. 16 gigabytes of memory, a battery of 1600mah, removable. I don’t even look in his direction.

HTC HD7

As far as I know, it is sold in Russia semi-official, but still sold. Although I also did not consider it - the screen 4.3 "is too big for me.

LG

LG E900 Optimus 7

The average index price is still 13.5 thousand, 16 gigabytes of memory, there is a flashlight. The battery, like, replaceable.

Nokia

Nokia Lumia 800

It will cost about 21 thousand. The phone is quite interesting in terms of design, 16 gigabytes of memory, the battery at 1450mah, is not replaced. microSIM. As a device "to try" expensive. But beautiful. If I took the main phone, then I think it would be one of the main candidates.

Nokia Lumia 710

The same Mozart, only from Nokia. microSIM, flashlight. The battery is non-replaceable, in my opinion.

Samsung

Samsung Omnia 7

_{Photos potiren here}
Screen 4 ", 8 gigabytes of memory, replaceable battery.

Samsung Omnia W

_{Photos potiren here}
Screen 3.7 ", 8 gigabytes of memory, replaceable battery.

At a price close to the mozart, which is the first, that the second. AMOLED screen. The Omnia W processor is faster (and in general - it replaced the Omnia 7, so the previous model will soon disappear, if it hasn't disappeared yet).

Conclusion

In addition to those mentioned, there will certainly be more phones - Acer is preparing something for the budget, for example. But I just walked over what Yandex.Market offers.
What can I say at all ... Devices differ very little - the strict requirements of MS to hardware affect. From some side correctly - there will not be such a zoo, as with androids, it will be easier to release updates to the OS (see iPhone :). The disadvantage is that for some time there won't be really budget devices (bucks for 200-250), like on an android. Prices now start at around $ 400.

I haven’t bought anything yet, but I am inclined to mozart - a replaceable battery, an opportunity to increase (and speed up) the memory - if you suddenly want to use it as the main phone. I can do without a flashlight, if that.
