Windows Phone 7 in 2nd place, says WSJ poll

Conflicting Gamers, "Smartphones have become a huge draw for consumers thanks to there small form factor that gives huge power for computing on the go, social connecting, mobile gaming and more. The iPhone lead the craze but looks to be dropping in popularity."

I might want a WP7 now...haha

[eLiNeS]

WinPho7 is kicking the iPhone to the curb! LOL

[RememberThe357]

I'm not a smart phone owner so I don't have feelings toward any one platform, but the way they are selling this OS as fast so that you can get on and off your phone as quickly as possible sounds great to me.

[Seijoru]

I prefer Android over both.

[Kalowest]

I've had RIM for awhile now, but i might switch to WP7. WP7 looks pretty cool/slick.

[8thnightvolley]

i am a new proud owner of the new wp7 htc hd7 and its some fasssssssst slick as hell machine, microsoft surely has surprised me with the way the OS runs, and it doesnt matter what type u go for all of them are doing processor speeds of at least 1ghz so expect some pretty fast reaction, the touch sensing is right up there with the best iphone can deliver, the xbox live is synced nicely with your xboxlive account and u get achievements which count and u see them pop up on ur xbox too, word docs, everything office u can make and edit spread sheets on the go, and the marketplace with apps are getting bigger so many apps pop up every hour i got it day one and it was about 20 apps, in 48 hrs i have seen over 150 already,..

i for one wanted the iphone but after testing the 3gs for a week and then looking at the iphone which is basically the same thing with video recording and well a more slicker screen its basically the same thing u can even update the 3GS OS to the iphone4 and plus the antenna problems is just stupid i dont see me and iphone making it together... the WP7 OS is so easy to use all u need to do is look at it and u knw everything that is going on in your phone .. very simple and very powerful

i am impressed nice one MS. add kinect which i hope u doing mess up and u have everything on right par from xbox, to windows 7 to WP7 all in the good lane.

[ispendallday]

I am very much looking forward to getting one come Nov. 8th!!

[8thnightvolley]

phone runs like a beauty, i have been sat on it for the past 2 days havnt even touched my console.. i give a few hours and dive into the marketplace and see so many apps all new and at the speed they are being released its only a matter of time one will find what ever they are looking for on an iphone right there...

[BiggCMan]

Android all the way baby :D

[Gamehead36]

Sad spot for BB. I hope WP7 delivers, I need a phone.

[KiLLUMiNATi_89]

IPhone 4 tops any phones in the market period IMO.

[SeNiLe911]

LOL, the poll is not a lie!

[fromasterjay]

im getting sick of my iphone....its WAY too slow now.

[Kalowest]

The IPhone series isn't on top of anything anymore really.

[Yo Mama]

Why would anyone want this new windows phone? According to gizmodo.com, it's UI is so basic that it doesn't even have custom ringtones.

[Fishy Fingers]

I can think of another phone without custom ringtones, iphone. Might not know of it, didnt really take off.

[snake-OO]

are u sure about that cuz my iphone has a mgs ringtone and no its not jailbroken.

[Kalowest]

Thats the same reason ppl love the iOS, its easy to pick up and use. Basically its user friendly, so it can appeal to a wider audience.

[Sikct9a]

I have an iPhone 3GS and miss my android phone.

[GrilledCheeseBook]

not surprised since there's only an iphone vs the many WP7 and Android phones
people like new shiny things and I can imagine people getting bored of look of the iphone
WP7 and Android benefit from the many aesthetics of their phones, whether they're better OS's is debatable

[MetalFreakMike]

I switched from Blackberry to Android so I'm good. Glad to see Microsoft is trying to cut into Apple's and Google's market. I might get one when I see mass adoption and good app support.

[Kalowest]

Good news for something made from MS.

[malky boy]

the HTC HD7 looks good with a massive screen

[8thnightvolley]

preach brother.. i am loving it.. hv u seen movies run on that baby.. BOY! 720HD no joke

[Klepto]

Is such a dissapointment! The screen on that thing is horrible and washed out. Very low quality when compared to the mozart which is much nicer

[8thnightvolley]

dude.. wtf are u talking about hd7 is doing 720hd on a beauty screen and nothing like washed out so maybe you are holding a knock-off version but if u wanna talk about what is actually best.. of all in screen ur choice is wrong the best is samsung omnia 7 that has the AMOLED screen and that shyt is freaking vibrant and i one hell of a screen.. other than that every phone range in the wp7 has some kick ass beauty if u want to get into big screen and watch movies and play games on some nice screen HD7 BABY!!! all the wayyyyyyy

[psycho360]

I'm all for iphone as i got myself an iphone4. Strange to think people voted online for Win7 phone when there is hardly and concrete info about it and not seen or reviewed in many places. I smell lot of MS guys voting on this website.

[hadouken007]

What's with M$ and second place. They can't even get windows right,android rules.

[southernbanana]

Goodbye iphone! I have been dissatisfied with my iphone for a while and was thinking about an Android. Unfortunately I don't know anyone who has a Droid and all of the positive news about WP7, plus the addition of Xbox live has me really leaning that direction. Microsoft has been changing my opinion of their products over the past couple of years... It seems they have finally figured out what consumers want, or mabey they are just lucky for now..... Either way I like what I have been seeing.

[tinybigman]

and i love it not one problem with it at all.
