I chose to purchase an HTC Trophy because it is the only Windows Phone 7 device currently offered by my carrier Verizon Wireless. Although competing carriers such as AT&T Wireless offer more impressive WP7 hardware, I am still thoroughly impressed with the HTC Trophy. The growing market of WP7 apps adds value and funcitonality on a weekly basis. The phone hardware feels sturdy in the hand, and offers a crystal clear corning gorilla glass super lcd display. It runs the WP7 os well, and the mango update makes the phone even more user friendly and feature rich. The biggest drawback to this phone is the fact that HTC/Verizon haven't added support for internet sharing with this device. This is a feature built in to WP7 os, and carriers like AT&T are taking advantage of this and allowing customers to use this with a modified contract. The battery life isn't bad, but I would recommend a mugen slim extended battery, as it extends battery life without changing the form factor of this slim device. I also purchased a casemate pop case to protect the outer finish and it also has a kickstand which is nice for watching netflix etc. If you experience any problems with app crashes, system hangups, freezing, etc on an HTC Trophy, return it right away. This is likely a hardware issue linked to the memory. The first ebay HTC Trophy I purchased exhibited these characteristics, and I didn't find out the root of the problem till months later. My current HTC Trophy is another phone I purchased from eBay, and I have had no problems with it whatsoever. I tried to crash it, get it to freeze, reset, etc for 72 hours straight when I got it, and never succeeded, so it is right as rain (and since I used eBay, I am still well under the cost of a new retail phone).Read full review
The HTC Trophy is one of my favorite windows 7 phones that has ever been released. The phone has around 13GB of actual internal storage which will be more than enough for your average user. The 5MP camera is actually pretty nice and the phone has a camera button which you really dont see anymore on your newer phones. I love the windows phone 7 experience and the tiles as well even though the marketplace is still lacking in applications. The phone has a nice weight to it and is not fingerprint prone or glossy which is a plus (in my opinion). The phone rarely freezes on me and I think the operating system is very easy to adapt to. The only con I can tell is the battery life. The phone comes with a 1400MAH battery (im guessing but no more than 1500mah for sure) and for a moderate to heavy user i definitely have to bring an extra battery or my charger along with me in the same day. The avaialble apps for windows phone seven are still coming along as well so if your big on apps I would recommend going to IOS or Android as WP7 is still playing catch but has came a long way since its launch. I'm trying to just review the phone and not the operating system and I really love this phone. P.S. This phone is global which is a plus for international users and comes with earphones if you buy it new.Read full review
A great buy and a really nice, easy to use phone. It has a nice sized screen and a really good speaker for listening to music.
I purchased this phone mostly due to the reviews I read and the price. As a phone, it's a good phone. The call quality is very good. It doesn't drop calls in places my iPhone did. It does however have a horrid battery life. It has a plethora of apps available on the Marketplace but none of them are anything I would use. For example, most phones have a call blocking app, this one does not. Also, apps I used the most when I had my iPhone do not have a windows version. If you want a quality phone and care nothing for useful apps, this is a great buy.
The HTC Trophy with the WP7 OS is far superior for managing business contacts than Android or iPhone OS unless you buy an expensive contact management program. In addition, it runs Office programs and allows creating and editing, again without buying another expensive program. The display is every bit as good if not better than the Super Amolid my HTC Incredible had and the phone is much more robust (the Incredible broke the first time I dropped it and the Trophy has survived several falls thus far). The "Cloud" based storage is seamless and easy to use and FREE! So far, there isn't a single "App" I would need that I haven't been able to find so all the BS about not having any apps is just that.
