Today we’re showing Mission Viejo why Windows Phone is simply faster



19-0!

That was Windows Phone’s record against the competition in the $100 challenge that we hosted yesterday at the South Coast Microsoft Store.  It was a great day of challenges – we took on iPhone 4 and 4s’s and a host of the latest Android devices like the Samsung Galaxy Skyrocket, Samsung Galaxy S II, Galaxy Nexus, LG Thrill, HTC Evo 4G, Motorola Atrix, Samsung Fascinate, and more – and against all of them, Windows Phone was simply faster at the everyday stuff that real people like you and me do on our smartphones. 

All in all, a really fun day.  We met a lot of cool people, handed out a bunch of phones and awesome “Smoked by Windows Phone” T-shirts, and welcomed a bunch of new members of the Windows Phone family.

Today we’re bringing the $100 challenge to the Microsoft Store in Mission Viejo.  My crew and I will be there from about 1-7pm. If you’re nearby polish up your smartphone skills, charge your battery, and see if you can win $100!

  And as always, be sure to follow me on Twitter for real-time updates on the action and for a heads up on where we’ll be next.
