It’s a world phone, Responsive platform experience, Good calling quality
Same exact model as before, Still pricey at $150
Honestly, it’s rather disappointing to see that Verizon is recycling a previous model and making the Trophy as its launch Windows Phone 7 handset. Besides its world phone feature, there’s nothing spectacular to set it apart from the other recently rele...
I really like the look and feel of this device and the cherry on top is that it has world roaming capabilities. The smartphone market is very crowded though, so you'll have to wait for our full review (coming very shortly) to see where this handset stan...

Usual Windows Phone 7 issues to be addressed in OS 7.5 Mango (no multi-tasking, etc.), Usual Windows Phone 7 issues to be addressed in OS 7.5 Mango (no multi-tasking, etc.), Usual Windows Phone 7 issues to be addressed
If you've been dying to try a Windows Phone 7 device on Verizon, the HTC Trophy is the first and only (for now!). It's a solid choice though, with HTC's pleasing styling and build quality, good speed and world GSM roaming capabilities. And like all cu...
Abstract: A pretty new cell phone emerges for us to take a look at today, folks–it’s the HTC Trophy, and while we’ve heard a lot about the HTC Thunderbolt over the last few weeks since CES, the HTC Trophy is going to be a pretty potent player in its own right.T...
The HTC Trophy features a compact design and world roaming capabilities. Windows Phone offers an easy-to-use interface, as well as good integration with Zune and Office
Camera quality is disappointing. Battery life could be better
Designed for the international markets, the HTC Trophy is a well-designed and solid-performing Windows smartphone, but unless you're looking for an unlocked phone, there are better, more-affordable options here in the States.
So the HTC 7 Trophy is a great phone, as is the whole HTC 7 range. This might be the least remarkable of the three options, but it is also very portable meaning it will certainly have its fans. Windows 7 meanwhile offers a very nice looking alternativ...
A little too much like the other WP7 phones to really stand out
Overall, this is a good phone to use, even if there are no real headline standout features. The combination of HTCs solid and stylish handset and the cool, efficient Windows Phone 7 innards is highly successful. David Phelan...
Wellbalanced performance, Highquality construction
Camera is nothing spectacular, No DLNA
The HTC 7 Trophy is a winner after all. With solid specs, a nice rugged feel as well as solid performance across the board, the HTC 7 trophy delivers a great screen, great connectivity and great performance. Admittedly, the camera could be better and t...

Fast processor, fresh UI, nicely sized screen
No microSD card slot, fiddly/slow camera, no task manager
One of a handful of new Windows Phone 7 devices, the HTC 7 Trophy is probably the WP7 equivalent of the HTC Desire, in that it has a 1GHz processor, 5 megapixel camera, and similarly sized WVGA display. It's touted as the gaming handset of HTC's WP7 l...
