Unfortunately, searching for images and just images on Windows Phone 7 is not so easy, despite having Bing built in. Sure, you could fire up the browser and do it the old manual way, but we're looking for a more elegant solution.

Two image viewers are put to the test: Easy Image Collector ($0.99; store link) and ImageSearch ($0.99; store link). Both offer try-before-you-buy options and each has it strenths and quirks, leading to no clear winner but instead two pretty solid performers that greatly enhance image searching.

Watch the fulll video to see the differences.
