Maxis first to offer phone with WP7

PETALING JAYA: Maxis Bhd will be the first telco in Malaysia to release HTC’s new HD7 which carries the Windows Phone 7 (WP7) operating system for mobile platforms.

Chief operating officer Jean-Pascal van Overbeke said the offering is aimed at boosting user experience from its combination of device and system design in tandem with Maxis’ high-speed mobile data network and integrated services platform.

“Our partnership puts Maxis customers first when it comes to enjoyment of the widest variety of advanced devices, together with the latest advancements in operating systems,” he said in a statement yesterday.

The HD7 boasts a 4.3in screen, eight megapixel camera and 16Gb internal memory among other features.

The new WP7 operating system has also been acclaimed for its neat system of integrated homescreen shortcuts to high quality control over live updates for social networking mobile sites and an ability to integrate with Xbox Live for mobile gaming, said van Overbeke.

“This continues our track record of offering devices that are constantly expanding in their applications.”
