Today, Microsoft revealed their own messaging phones, the Kin One and the Kin Two. Let’s go over the Kin One. The Kin One is a square slider with a QVGA screen. 4GB of storage, 5MP camera with flash, and a QWERTY keyboard. You can get a higher-end model with a 8MP camera and 8GB of storage. Both the Kin One and Kin Two have WiFi and Bluetooth. Also, both phones runs the Windows Phone 7 kernel, but Microsoft decided to heavily skin the UI based on Social Media.  The Kin Two basically has the same specs as the Kin One, except it has a horizontal slider to reveal the larger QWERTY keyboard. The phone will be available in May and will be exclusive to Verizon.
