On Monday Microsoft introduced two new handsets called Kin1 and Kin 2, they are designed for those who spend too much time on Facebook, sharing images that were snapped by their handsets as well as swapping text messages. The Kin cell phones are available with full QWERTY keyboards and they integrate a number of media and also networking features. Both handsets are going to be offered by Verizon starting from May. But still prices are not disclosed.
It should be mentioned that the phones are based on a special version of Windows Phone OS so do not even expect to find Windows Phone 7 of version 6.5 on them.
In fact, the handsets are created for young people, with the help of the Kin OS, one can upload as well as share content. Moreover, it is very easy to keep in touch with your friends which can be done by means of a visually-pleasing and also intuitive interface. It is possible to share links, videos, photos as well as other content, you just need to drag-and-drop the content to a special sharing area known as Kin Spot, and then you have to select a person you want to send.
The Kin OS is considered to be cloud-based. When you take videos as well as photos on the Kin handsets, as a matter of fact, they are uploaded to the server of Kin. So you are able to log into your account of Kin on your PC in order to view as well as share them with your friends.
Also they integrate the Zune HD player which is compatible with Macs and PCs.
But if you are a more advanced user you are able to find some limitations connected with the operating system. The handsets lack video and also photo editing software, also you will be unable to find a universal inbox along with calendar support. Furthermore, there is no support for video as well as photo uploads to Twitter. Actually, the browser does not back up Silverlight and also Flash Lite.
