What's so bad about Windows Mobile 6.5?

1491 Views 6 Replies 3 Participants Last post by  blazin-asian
Well, I see a lot of negative reviews on WinMo 6.5, but I don't see the reason why? Could you give examples or personal experience, good or bad?
Also, when is WinMo 7 expected and will current gen phones be upgradable to use it?

Thanks

WM 6.5 is not bad per say, just not as customizable as the Android OS.

And Win 7 on a mobile phone, never gonna happen.

Then why is there so much negativity about it?

Maybe you misread, but I said WinMo7, as in Windows Mobile 7, not Windows 7.

Lol. I dunno. I like 6.5 much better over 6.1.

As far as Win Mo 7 coming out, geez 6.5 just came out.

I'll take a guess you have a mobile with 6.5
How do you like it? Any complaints? Can you leave it on for weeks/months without having to restart your phone? Anything that is missing? Are there usefull 3rd Party Apps?

Thanks for any help

I am a VZW sales reap so I get to "play" with all the devices.

wm6.5 is slow as heck! when i got my TP2, it came with 6.1 preinstalled and everything was super quick. after installing a rom with wm6.5, it feels sluggish. im not a fan of the titanium theme either.

wm6.1 = xp
wm6.5 = vista
wm7 = 7

that should summarize why 6.5 sucks
