Microsoft’s Joe Belfiore introduced the new phone and said that the company’s goal was to create ‘a modern phone that fits people’s complex lives.’ Belfiore added, ‘First, we want a smart design that puts the user at the center of the experience. Second, we wanted to design integrated experiences.’

Early reviews of the Windows Phone 7 Series emphasize how different it is from past iterations of Windows Mobile.

Engadget writes, ‘This really is a completely new OS—and not just Microsoft’s new OS, it’s a new smartphone OS, like webOS new, like iPhone OS new. You haven’t used an interface like this before.’

Gizmodo is also excited about the new Windows Phone. ‘Windows Phone 7 Series is more than the Microsoft smartphone we’ve been waiting for. Everything’s different now.’
