If you’ve been following the Windows Phone Dev Podcast, or our stories covering it, you’ll know that some amazing new features are coming on the Mango update.

Story 3

 

Ryan and Travis Lowdermilk have just leaked two more screenshots on their website, as seen below.

As you can see, we are finally getting Smart DJ mixes!  This is great news, as this is a feature some have already been enjoying on dedicated Zune devices.  One wonders why it wasn’t included from the beginning, but that’s besides the point.  Microsoft seems to making right all the wrongs!

If you’re unfamiliar with the feature, Smart DJ is basically a Pandora service for your Zune music – and if you have the Zunepass, it can stream lots of new music to your phone, based on the Smart DJ mix you are using at the time.

We also see that the music controls are reconfigured, and are visible at all times. It appears we’ll be able to save playlists on the phone as well.  It is unclear if we’ll have the capability to edit playlists on the phone, however.

Lastly, we see that the Camera sound can now be disabled in settings.  Not a huge deal, but it’s nice to have that option.

May 24th will officially reveal all the things Mango should bring us, so mark it on your calendar!  We’ll be covering it extensively.

 

Thanks Fludlyt for the tip.
