The Nokia Lumia Black update brings in a host of new features and improvements including new camera features, UI changes and more.
Nokia has officially announced that it has started rolling out the latest Lumia Black update for all its Windows Phone running devices. The update promises to bring in some new features that we had seen on the recently announced Lumia 1520.
The company has put in a lot effort in the camera department and has updated the Nokia Camera app which now has three camera modes including Smart Camera, Nokia Pro Camera and video. Handsets with 1GB of RAM will also get the Nokia Refocus app which allows you to focus on a point and blur out the rest while composing a photograph.
The update will also include new apps like Nokia Storyteller which collects all your pictures according to the location and time and collates them into into a series, called ‘Storyline’. Nokia Beamer will also be available for devices with 1GB of RAM which allows a user to send documents and multimedia content to any HTML5 enabled display by just scanning a QR code. The homescreen will now get a new tile called App Folder, which will allow you to organize your apps and settings under this single tile on the homescreen. Nokia has also updated its Glance screen feature which now supports displaying up to 5 notification icons on the screen and now has new night time colours including red, green and blue.
The Lumia 1020 and the 925 have already started getting the update and the rest of the devices will be getting the update in the coming weeks.
