Reviews are coming in for Microsoft’s updated mobile operating system and the overall impression for reviewers seems akin to a large yawn, followed by a long snooze. It’s dull. And boring.
Anyone hoping for the kind of snappy, modern interfaces seen on new phones coming from Android, Palm, HTC and, of course, the iPhone will be in for a jumbo-sized disappointment – Windows 6.5 is basically the same OS of yore with a few bits of eye-candy half heartedly applied.
Although there’s been some fairly substantial improvements in usability, some apps have barely changed since Windows Mobile 6 , making Microsoft’s offering look very, very tired indeed.
