Just when they thought Windows phones were finished, along came Mango...
One of the best, and funniest, technologies that came my way in 2011 was a loan HTC Titan Windows 7.5 Manga phone. Funny because of the looks on the faces of Apple iOS and Android aficionados when: told that respected Microsoft contacts said Mango would be impressive; hands-on experience showed it was true, and Microsoft designers could “think different”.
Maybe a retrospective “How could we have done it differently?” sparked the inspiration, because Mango is fresh, effective and surprising. And it was a challenging brief to come up with something to rival the leading Apple and Android mobile phone benchmarks.
