I’ve just shot this video show how Windows Phone 7 performs on the Samsung Omnia 7 and LG Optimus 7. The verdict: Exactly the same!. This is pretty amazing when you think about it. We have to hardware devices build by two different manufacturers and they have exactly the same performance running the same tasks. Sure they may have the same hardware specifications but keep in mind that they are probably using different memory modules (we know that LG is using 16GB of eMMC for the storage and that the Omnia has double the ROM (1GB)) and several other small differences. This just goes to show that Microsoft’s decision to control the whole platform was the best thing they could do. Hit the break to watch the video:
I know that the HTC’s devices are apparently a bit slower at loading applications (I’m basing this on the videos we have seen lately) and will make sure to check this out once I receive the review samples from HTC shortly.

Use this as the final check before ordering a phone, changing network or trusting a headline monthly price.
