Mango and Tango devices showing up on I'm a WP7 too

Filed under:

Looks like whomever is testing these phones sure likes to broadcast they're doing so. The popular, free and fun "I'm a WP7!" which recently had a major revision (see here) obviously collects interesting data from users and the developer, Scott Peterson, shared them with us. The info is an "...aggregate of over 46,000 devices, in over 150 countries worldwide." Yowza!

First, as you can see above, many of the new "Mango" devices that we've been reading and writing about have recently come "on line". That date is when they were first spotted. For those wondering, the Asus Galaxy6 is actually a very, very old Windows Phone 7 device that never got past some development work. Interesting to see it show up though. We also see the usual suspects:

  • Acer M310
  • Samsung GT-i8350
  • Nokia 800
  • HTC Eternity
  • HTC Omega
  • Fujitsu IS12T
  • Samsung SGH-i677
  • LG-LS831 (still unknown)
  • Toshiba Tsunagi (TG01 developer device)

Missing from the list? Any Dell device. There was one spotted back in May with a missing "device name", but other than that, it looks like Dell may not have anything further, confirming the idea that they're out of the mobile phone biz.Then again, perhaps they're just really disciplined and secretive.

Finally, Scott tells us he's seen a new build of Windows Phone, which would be Tango 8310. The previous version was 8200, seen here.

Interesting stuff and hopefully we'll have more on the way. Pick up "I'm a WP7" here in the Marketplace, it's worth a spin.

Is the Nokia 800 the "Sea Ray"?

Probably, but who knows?

The other story from earlier today showed both a Nokia 800 and a Nokia Sea Ray on the list, implying that they are different.

That's what I was hoping!

Just caught my first glimpse of preliminary specs of the Samsung Kupua and HTC Bunyip for AT&T here: http://phandroid.s3.amazonaws.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/ATT-Roadmap...Any add'l news on those phones?? Both look to be promising!

Meh. Yet another app thats exclusive to u.s :(

You sure? Not sure how he collected from 150 countries then...they all can't be traveling. How would someone in the US be using the Fujitsu phone?

Ooops; my bad!Turns out I was reading the message on the Marketplace too fast.Message was: "Application not available for you device"BTW: Keep trollin' futurix

Your original message can be interpreted as trolling, as it is very similar to a few that were posted during "Minesweeper-gate."

Damn, and not a single picture leak in sight. Not even from mr blurrycam. :(

that's good so now u can't spec hate on it.

You're my first male stalker. How can you spec hate on some photos. Go back to your moms basement and finished playing board games.

it's very simple actually, one can say that it's ugly or that it doesn't look like it's powerful enough. as for the stalking, I bet a maríca like urself would like that but too bad that isn't the case. I just don't like spec haters.

LOL@ that doesn't look powerful enough. Should you be out hunting vampires you weirdo.

I'd rather be a weirdo than a maríca.

Dell likes keeping their things way under wraps until theyre ready to be announced properly, not particularly surprising to not see any yet

I assume the HTC MSM 7X30 refers to the Qualcomm SOC MSM7230 or MSM 7630. Could this be HTC's low end phone?

Hey folks, I just wanted to clarify some comments here, so everyone has the "skinny":Currently, around 67% of the "...i'm a WP7!" users are OUTSIDE the US. The app is available in ALL Marketplaces internationally. Over 50% of the current reviews are outside of the US as well. v2.7 will support all NoDo supported languages, and v3.0 (Mango) will include a large number of Mango-supported languages (especially Dutch...Windows Phone has a rabid fan base in The Netherlands...)I hope this helps everyone!Scott J.
