At Microsoft’s MIX11conference in Las Vegas, Joe Belfiore, the Windows Phone director took the stage to demonstrate how well Microsoft’s new Internet Explorer 9 mobile browser can render HTML5 websites. In order to demonstrate it, he fired up a device running Microsoft’s new Windows Phone “Mango” update with IE9 installed and hardware acceleration, and then started an HTML5 speed test pitting the Mango device against the iPhone 4 and the Google Nexus S. Belfiore was so confident that he even gave the iPhone 4 a head start. Nonetheless, IE9 loaded the demo faster and came out on top, having displayed the test at 20 frames per second. The test was then followed by the Android browser on the Nexus S, which rendered the same demo at 11 frames per second, and then the iPhone 4 at 2 frames per second. This wasn’t exactly an independent test since it was performed by Microsoft and they likely went under optimal conditions, but we are definitely impressed with what we have seen so far. Let’s just hope that the Mango update goes smoother than the NoDo update did for Microsoft. You can check out the video comparison below: Windows Phone 7 actually turned out to be more successful than many thought it to be and is a huge improvement over Microsoft’s last few attempts at a mobile OS.
