Platform and Performance
The phone runs on the Microsoft Windows Phone 7 operating system, which was known for its unique tile-based interface and smooth performance. Under the hood, it is powered by the Qualcomm QSD8250 Snapdragon S1 chipset featuring a 1.0 GHz Scorpion CPU and an Adreno 200 GPU. While these specifications may seem modest by today’s standards, they were adequate at the time for basic multitasking and running the Windows Phone OS’s efficient interface. The device comes with 16GB of internal storage and 448MB of RAM, a sufficient allocation for the typical use cases of its time but lacking the expandability via a microSD card slot.
