Nokia Announces Software Update For 808 PureView

Will enhance imaging and browsing experience; a better keypad and Nokia Car Mode also added.

 

UPDATE (04-Oct-2012): A thread in the Nokia Discussions Forum suggests major issues in the Belle OS upgrade for 603, 700, 701 and 808 PureView handsets. As a result, the company has pulled down the update from their servers until further notice. We will keep you posted about any future developments.
 

The new Lumia 920 is making ripples in the market with its 8.7 MP auto-focus PureView camera. But when it comes to megapixels, however, it is nowhere close to Nokia's 808 PureView, which has been proven to be almost as good as a DSLR.

Nokia has released a software upgrade for a more immersive imaging experience. According to this post on the Nokia Conversations blog, the upgrade includes:
 

  • A new Gallery Grid display when the phone is in landscape.
  • Access to functions such as swipe, zoom, share, edit and send, when images are opened from the Gallery widget on the home screen.
  • Additional information about images such as resolution, ISO value, white balance setting, file size, and (while the user is on Nokia Maps) place where the photo was taken.
  • Multiple select and delete functionality in Gallery Grid Mode.
  • Additional reset button in Creative Mode to undo changes made to the image.

Apart from these imaging features, the upgrade includes an updated browser (version 8.3) with improved HTML5 support, a newer and faster keyboard, and Nokia Car Mode — which allows access to key features of the phone while driving. The upgrade was rolled out on 2nd October globally, but it is not available in some regions. A separate software upgrade has also been announced for the Nokia 603, Nokia 700, and Nokia 701. This includes a faster browser and Nokia Car Mode. For details on how to upgrade your phone, visit the link above.
