HTC Windows 7 Smartphones & HTC Sense

I'd say it's highly unlikely as WP7 have there own software and widgets built in, all updates and the like are linked to a tile on the UI. Mind you the UI is really slick

Just confirmed with a mate of mine he has the HD7 and it doesn't have HTC sense on it

If you are thinking of the Win7 route, those who have the Lumia swear it as the best of the bunch

No Sense on my WP7 HTC Mozart.

OK, thanks for confirming.

Had a play instore with the Lumia at the weekend and it was very slick.

However, I got the impression that to get the full Win Phone 7 experience, you need a constant data connection in order that the relevant feeds can be constantly updated.

And with a constant data connection your battery life will be tulip!

I get a day out of my Mozart, and that's with all the feeds side of things turned on.

That said, I don't talk much - its more of a data thing for me.

I'm thinking of getting a Lumnia, windows phone is awesome and nokia used to be the best at making phones hopefully they're on a comeback. I still have an E71 and I get two days out of it even when browsing and using email, it's a backup phone but it's so robust

Does anyone on the board have a HTC smartphone which was purchased running Windows Phone 7?

If so, can you advise if it also came with HTC Sense on it?

I suspect not but wanted to confirm from someone who has one.

Ta muchly.

Friend of mine has the HTC HD7 - it doesn't have sense on it.
Windows Mobile 7 runs smoothly on it (at least I didn't see any problems when given a quick tour)
