Microsoft today announced that Lumia Cyan and Windows Phone 8.1 update will start rolling out around the world today and will be available for all Windows Phone 8 Lumia devices in the coming weeks. Microsoft also announced that Lumia 520, Lumia 525, Lumia 620 and Lumia 720 users will get a free upgrade to global HERE Drive+.
Apart from WP8.1, Cyan update will include the following new features,
- The Lumia Cyan update will also improve the already powerful Nokia Camera, Creative Studio and Storyteller apps. Nokia Camera gets a simplified user interface with one-tap access to edit and share pictures, and full-resolution zooming, re-framing and Creative Studio 6 (CS6) are available directly from the renewed Camera Roll.
- The new Nokia Device Hub included in the Cyan update, your Lumia can help you track down a missing accessory by showing you where you last used it.
- The Lumia 1520 and Lumia Icon will get Nokia Rich Recording and Dolby Digital Plus 5.1 sound. And the camera capabilities will be even more robust (e.g. improved colors and low-light performance, continuous autofocus and improvements to RAW DNG images) and real thanks to the Living Images feature.
- In addition, Microsoft’s Screen Share technology allows you to project content from your Lumia 1520 or Lumia Icon to connected screens like a smart TV or projector. Last but not least, the new SensorCore SDK Beta means that your favorite apps (such as Bing Fitness & Health) and gadgets can use location data, real-time updates (such as miles walked) and other advanced features.
