Yo. bought HD7 from Maxis last night.

Overall:
1) Copy-and-Paste: Not an issue for me. i dont use it.

2) Custom Ringtones: This is my concern as I like to play around with ringtones. Hopefully they will update it or maybe some ringtones apps in future will help.

3) Bluetooth file transfer: Not a big concern but its quite annoying when you really need to transfer music.

4) Marketplace: Does not support in Malaysia yet due to Credit Card issue. seriously, why dont they consider PayPal as alternative solution?

5) Ringtones too soft: This is a big issue for me. Hope they have a workaround or something.


Problem faced:
1) Ringtones doesnt silent when Alarm is activated. When i receive incoming calls, it on vibrates. + the volume is very very soft on the other end. after soft reset, everything went smooth. will see if it happen tomorrow morning.


Etc:
Any recommended Games/apps?

sad to say, WhatsApps will not be available for WP7 anytime soon.

=====
"WP7 is missing core address book integration APIs that our application requires" - WhatsApp Inc. CEO Jan Koum

"The app (WhatsApp) constantly scans your local address book and compares the phone numbers within to its massive list of users. When someone in your address book has WhatsApp installed on his or her phone, an entry will automatically be added to your WhatsApp contact list. Because Windows Phone 7 does not give apps a way to access and scan the address book, this key functionality would be impossible on the platform"
=====

Imagine WhatsApps is integrated into People hub. You will have Outlook contacts, Windows Live contacts, Facebook contacts & WhatsApps contacts. abit too much i think

volume that i want to make it loud is ringtone volume and sms notification volume.. too soft and slow,
there is no setting to adjust it and make it loud.
and zune to make my phone connected to computer just to transfer picture? thats is too much.
why microsoft just not upgrade w6.5 instead of make a new platform but using same name which is window.

i thought w7 is upgrade from w6.5.
thats no time to read survey before buy ,since its clear ly name window 7.

just like android 1.5 then 2.0 then 2,2  then 2.3 bla bla. and off coz new os can support the old one


Added on January 18, 2011, 3:29 amlastly... mobile and phone is that point to the same thing with a different word only?

Hi bro. Sorry to say that, u should check the phone b4 buying. I myself knew that it doesn't support custom ringtones but I have the confident that it will be deployed 1 day. Self research is the key to own desired phone. My advice is, u should get rid of the phone since it doesn't satisfied ur requirement.

LOL. i dropped my HD7 face-on and the whole screen cracked. spent RM580 to fix it. The service is quite fast. within 2 days i collected my phone. sent to HTC service Centre (Plaza Berjaya). expensive lesson.

hope Mango is coming soon!

after watching the HTC Titan unboxing video...im damn attracted to 4.7" screen. and the size of Titan is pretty similar with HD7 just abit higher. hope that maxis will sell the device and i'll probably plan to upgrade the plan.

depends on location of seller. i've ordered once from HK seller. Less than a week I got the product. UK might take more than a week.

Still waiting for it. My bigger concern is whether the battery is the capacity which they claimed in their website.

Just want to share my experience with the battery seller from eBay. I have written to them asking for a refund and they have asked me to return the item in order to qualify for a refund. I found out that the cost of sending it back is almost as much as the refund amount. Hence I gave them a very bad review on this purchase. This is what they wrote to me today:
» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «


I just replied them:
» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «


For me, I don't mind if they don't want to refund me but I want them to do business the proper way so that future buyers are not "cheated" again. Let's see what will their reply be.

Sorry OT a bit.  notworthy.gif
