HTC Leads Windows Phone 7 Race with Mondrian and Mozart

The next generation of Microsoft powered smart phones will be sporting the Windows Phone 7 platform. That being said, it is anyone’s guess who will become the authority when it comes to making Windows Phone 7 devices. With their Mozart and Mondrian line of mobile phones, HTC is the leader of the pack.

The Taiwanese mobile phone maker has left hints regarding the upcoming mobile devices through the XML data which is found within the current HTC specifications. Keen observers have noted that both of these next gen smart phones use the Microsoft Internet Explorer Mobile 7 software which is one of the native applications meant for the Windows Phone 7 platform.

Details are few when it comes to the hardware specifications of the duo, but rumors say that the two will have Bluetooth connectivity. They will also be restricted to touch screen input only.

In order to run the Windows Phone 7 platform (and its collection of Xbox Live port games) smoothly, reports say that the HTC Mondrian will sport a powerful 1.3 GHz processor made by Qualcomm. Its touch screen is speculated to be sized at 4.3 inches. Lastly, camera buffs and scrapbooking addicts will benefit from the built in 5 megapixel snapper which is able to shoot high definition video clips.

Although these are not yet confirmed by retailers and no official press release has been circulated yet, there are many instances where rumored specs ring true. If that is the case, the Mondrian looks to be a smart phone to be reckoned with.

Aside from the Mondrian and Mozart phone lines, HTC is also set to release the HTC Gold model this coming November. Looks like the Taiwanese mobile phone manufacturer is after the Christmas season shopping rush.

It looks like HTC is pledging their support to Microsoft yet again. Seeing their good track record with Google Android, will their phone models make your Christmas wish list?
