I previously had the HTC HD2 and I loved that phone!! There were a few things I ended up disliking it for and the HD7 replaces all those problems that I had with the HD2. They fixed the HD2 and just made it that much better by adding Windows 7.
We were provided with a T-Mobile HD7 Windows 7 phone from Windows to share for review on Our Ordinary Life, we are also a brand ambassador for the company.
I have this phone and love it though it dies very quickly – probably have too many emails hooked up to it! Also, I changed my color layout to pink – love, love, love!
How do you get to be a brand ambassador Kristin? I did a review for them awhile back but it was just a loaner. I love my Samsung Galaxy S but it would be fun to promote t-mobile since we are on their plan! 🙂
