The Engadget show yesterday totally surprised everyone, with Aaron Woodman from Microsoft, showed off the World’s ever first Windows Phone 7 Series Device from one of their partners LG. The device shown is a pre production prototype and it was working just fine to reveal all the good stuff hidden under.

We have already given you the specs of LG’s first Windows Phone 7 Series device – Apollo. Yesterday Apollo made its first hands on experience by Aaron Woodman and a video of the revealing is added below. The QWERTY side-slider Apollo is the first WP7 Series device shown to the spotlight after the official launch of the most awaited Windows Phone 7 Series at Mobile World Congress few days back.

As a competitor to the iPhone and Google Nexus One, comparison of these devices with the Apollo Windows Phone 7 will be sure and by seeing the prototype device, which has to be revised for several times before the launch, we can say that it is somewhat thicker than the above.

Along with the back, home and search buttons dedicated for Windows Phone 7 Series, there are hardware buttons for camera, volume and power which are not seen in the other PocketPC’ usually. With these dedicated buttons, from the video and images we have got, we can see the 5 megapixel camera with flash and a 3.5 mm audio jack.

Nothing can be concluded right now as it will go under several experiments and out of the box, the Windows Phone may come with a little more sophistication that looks much better than the old version of Windows Mobile Phones.
