The

Windows

Phone

7

is

not

the

next

iteration

of

the

Windows

Mobile

platform,

but

is

its

successor.

It

was

built

specifically

for

the

Qualcomm

Snapdragon

processor

family

and

because

it

was

launched

three

and

a

half

years

after

the

iPhone,

it

has

benefitted

from

the

lessons

learned

by

older

revisions

of

iOS.
