This will be my final words on this Windows Phone 7 – HTC HD7.
When I get hold of this HTC HD7 from Maxis10, I just love the big huge and high resolution screen. It can even use as a mirror, so for the ladies don’t need to bring extra mirro but just bring this phone will do.
Pros
- Clean interface and can be organized easily.
- Show live feed on home screen.
- Big and Huge screen.
- Thin and sleek design.
- Good quality build.
- Build in Kickstand which is good and convenient for watching movie!
- Quickly see everything you care about with Live tiles on your Start screen.
- Your contacts and Facebook updates. Together.
- View, edit, share and sync Office docs—from anywhere.
Cons
- I don’t really like the keyboard as I always type or hit the wrong letter, perhaps my bulky and fat finger =(
- Camera button is hard to press and caused shaky or blur image.
- Camera can’t remember the last settings and will back to default everything when you want to use the camera which is very annoying.
- Photo quality is bad in low light condition.
- Not really user friendly, need to explore for quite sometime only can know what to do or how to use.
- Lack of copy and paste functions.
- Need Zune software installed on PC only can copy / transfer image and videos.
- No true multitasking.
- No notification for Twitter Mention and Facebook!
All in all, this Windows Phone 7 – HTC HD7 is still a good phone. I believe most of the cons could be solved by waiting for the firmware update release by Microsoft but the question is when?
Check out the HTC HD7 Packages offers by Maxis.

Market Place is not available for Malaysia and now I just found out that My Phone is not supported for Windows Phone 7 when I wanted to install for my HTC HD7 by Maxis10. My Phone features are really good but not supported. =(
The My Phone application may be used with Windows Mobile 6 phones and is pre-loaded on most newer Windows® phones. If the software is not already on your phone, enter http://myphone.microsoft.com/install into your mobile phone’s browser to download the software.
Once the software has been downloaded to your phone, select the “Microsoft My Phone” application from the Programs or Settings menu on your phone to complete setup. After syncing, return to this web site at anytime to access all of your contacts, photos, text messages, and more.
Tried to download My Phone to the HTC HD7 but failed.
With My Phone you can: - Backup your phone’s content automatically
With the My Phone service, information on your Windows® phone is backed-up to a password-protected web site hosted by Microsoft. If you lose your phone or upgrade to a new phone, you can restore your information easily. Learn more.
- Send photos to your PC and favorite social networking sites
Microsoft My Phone makes it easy to share photos taken with your phone. From your My Phone web account or directly from your Windows® phone, you can share photos to Facebook, Flickr, MySpace, and Windows Live. Learn more.
- Find your lost phone
The My Phone service can show you the last known location of your phone on a map (based on where it last synced or shared photos using My Phone). User activation required. Learn more.
- Access your contacts, text messages and more online
From the web you can organize contacts and appointments on your phone, and search through your old text messages. Changes appear on your phone the next time you sync.
I really love the features above and hope Windows Phone 7 will come out with something similar to this My Phone and the best part is using this service is FREE! Arghh…
A phone’s main function is to connect you with other mobile users / friends / family / colleagues etc. Windows Phone 7 did very well in this under People Hub.
With the People Hub, all of your friends and contacts are in one place and they’re all up to date. So you can see all and know all about the people that matter most.
You just need to add in your Facebook account and the People Hub will take care of the rest!
The Windows Phone 7′s People Hub aggregates you friends from all of your social networks in three screens – Recent, All, What’s New. Recent tab will show you friends who have just updated their profiles or statuses in Facebook or MSN, while All tab will show you all of your friends as in contact book. What’s new tab quickly aggregates recent status updates all into a single feed. You can also quickly share your own status update thru the People Hub easily.
Should you wish to comment, Like or Dislike a particular Facebook status update, it can be done directly from the People Hub. Microsoft has tried to integrate what most users want from a phone within the OS itself, not various applications, that’s the power of Windows Phone 7′ People Hub.
Clicking on one of your contacts not only displays their number and other details you had inputted, you can scroll through their status updates. Any contact information on Facebook, such as their birthday, is also displayed.
You can also filter / search thru alphabetical order of your contacts at People Hub.
You shouldn’t have any problems bringing your contacts over to Windows Phone 7 if you keep them in the cloud on another platform.
While you’ll initially need to login with a Windows Live account, you can add Outlook, Facebook, Gmail and other POP or IMAP accounts without a problem, and choose what syncs from each (contacts, photos, calendar, email etc).
What I don’t like is all my junk contacts from when I used MSN since secondary school will sadly appear in the address book. Need to do massive cleanup!
Okay this post will be on how the photo and video quality of this HTC HD7 by Maxis10. This HTC HD7 has a 5 megapixel autofocus camera with a 720p movie mode. Overall the photo was just average and not too impressive for my own opinion, but it’s only a camera phone if want awesome photo then just get a DSLR lo. =p
This HTC HD7 is big and easy to hold as a camera, but the camera button is really hard to press, you need to press real hard in order to take picture and sometimes you time to shake the camera and hence the picture goes blurred. On the other hand, Windows Phone 7 does allow you to jump straight into the camera app from a locked screen (by holding down the shutter button) which is convenient to me compared to iPhone.
Few of the draw back :-
- WP7′s inability to remember camera (or camcorder) settings. If you off the flash, each time you turn on the camera and wanted to shoot without flash but the flash will back to default settings which is really troublesome to use and annoying. Not only that, same goes to the video settings.
- The camera buttone is really hard to press.

More photo comparison between iPhone 4 and HTC HD7. Look at how this HTC HD7 score in the photo above. HTC HD7 actually takes good photo but provided with good lighting conditon and not low light condition which will caused the pink effect. I still think that iPhone takes better photo compared to the rest. Do you agree with me?
As to the video output itself, it’s quite presentable stuff. Check out the sample video taken below. The refresh rate is actually quite good.

The video format captured in HTC HD7 is .mp4 and the file size is comparative smaller than iPhone which store in .mov file.
iPhone Video Size – 00:00:31 – 38.4MB
HTC HD7 Video Size (VGA 640*480) – 00:00:31 – 8.13MB only!
All in all, the HTC HD7′s camera and video recording seem on par with other smartphone.

Wow… ChevronWP7: Windows Phone 7 unlocker released! Do you know that you can actually jailbreak your Windows Phone 7 as well just like what other ppl did to their iPhone for more apps!
ChevronWP7 unlocks your Windows Phone 7 to allow side loading of applications that wont be allowed in the Marketplace due to access to private APIs. This unlock works for every WP7 device out there and even reverts it back to the locked state making it safe for the end user.
I’m so gonna Jailbreak my HTC HD7 from Maxis10 Reviewers Programme to test it out whether it’s workable or not! Hmm or should I wait longer and see what’s Microsoft is coming out to encounter this?
Windows Phone 7 unlocker released
Today we have an exciting breakthrough for the Windows Phone 7 homebrew community – the ability for anyone to unlock a WP7 device without a Marketplace developer account.
Unlocking allows the sideloading of experimental applications that would otherwise can’t be published to the Marketplace, such as those which access private or native APIs.
We’ve taken the pain out of the process involved and put together a super simple executable that will allow anyone to unlock any WP7 device on the market using a USB cable and just a couple clicks.
This tool is completely safe and reversible for the phone. (The app even allows you to relock the phone.)

* Try closing Zune and restarting the “Zune Windows Mobile Connectivity Service” service (WMZuneComm.exe)

Notes
