Microsoft Introduced Windows Phone 7.1 Mango

Windows Phone 7.1 Mango is a newest flavor of Microsoft’s own mobile operating system. It is promised to improve the experience of Windows Phone users by allowing them to extend the App Experience. Mango is also going to support hardware accelerated graphics with new motion and camera API. One of the coolest features is the App Center, which integrates the apps in search results and with Microsoft Phone Hubs so that user can access them whenever required.Let’s say, you are searching for a restaurant in Bing search. The search results get directly hooked to the applications installed on the Mango phone, making it possible to directly open some Table app to book a seat in the searched restaurant. To make it more relevant, the IE9 browser relies on the in-built local awareness and camera access to deliver better and related search results. So, there are chances that you will find a nearest restaurant in the search results.

Another remarkable feature is Quick Card. Bing search will show up a Quick Card for a particular movie, event, place, business. What makes Quick Cards more relevant is location awareness to search in the neighborhood. The feature is titled as Local Scout and it organizes places by category for each individual neighborhood.

All Windows Phone users must have been using the Bing Voice, the news is that Mango brings Bing Vision to you. With Bing Vision, you can simply snap a picture of a QR code, Bar code or even a book cover to bring up a Quick Card for that product. Amazing!!!

When compared with iPhone 4, BlackBerry Torch and Samsung Droid Charge, the Windows Phone running Mango proved too good for other browsers. IE9 on Mango delivered 27 frames per second, when BlackBerry Torch managed 4 fps and Samsung Droid running Android had 10 fps. To the surprise of Apple fans, the iPhone 4 couldn’t get started. Hmmmm!!! Microsoft is upto something substantial. I am already reading great things about the performance of the upcoming version 10 of their web browser, Internet Explorer and the preview of Windows 8 was amazing.
