I GOT ONE! woooooottt...

but the user interface is very shitty, its no wonder no one buys it, it looks like its running on a homebrew'd OS , just a black background with green words in the front , kinda like how VGchartz used to look like, and the "Tiles" look slightly off, they're on the side with a noticable space on the right of the screen that is unused (Wtf?) you can change the black to white , and change the tiles colors to a bunch of colors, but it is still very unappealing, i bought it myself to play the exclusive XBL games, but they should really make it more appealing , and more user friendly (which is ironic from their ad campaign) , the phone is confusing , they mostly use icons instead of words so you don't know what this icon does unless you remember it , for example if you want to select "more options" you have to touch a barely seen icon tucked in the bottom right of the screen with a "...." , at first i never knew its an icon i thought its just a background thing, and it doesn't say what it does, so yeah they really need to make it more appealing! , i never going to see myself using this OS in my daily activities, Android and IOS are ironically more user friendly , and are much faster, which is another issue with Windows Phone 7 , is that everytime you select an app or folder, it shows you an unneeded little animation similar to the one you see in dvd/bluray movies when you select for example "Scene Selection"

Really? I have one and I think its a fantastic interface...pretty basic but its seriously great.


i'm sure you haven't read the wall of text i posted, but i don't blame you

i explained why i think its shitty.

xD yeah I only read the first couple of sentences (I have a short attention span when I'm not required to have a long attention span >_< )

I'll read it now.

 

 

Ok now that i've read it I do agree with some of your points (like the simple backgrounds that I wish had more options) but I think it is very user friendly. It literally took me about an Half an hour to know how to do just about everything whilst when I mess with my uncles android I still don't know what i'm doing half the time.

As for the speed Its pretty fast for me (especially with the update that came in March) and there are no animations for me when I click on tiles.

Oh and all the tiles have the names of what they are on the bottom left side of each tile.
