The first Nokia Windows Phone-powered handset is Lumia 800. This special is running the latest version of Microsoft's version of the mobile operating system 7.5 (Mango). Microsoft is expected to launch a Windows Phone 8 (Apollo) then during the year. Does this mean that Nokia handsets such as 800, 900, 710, and 610 will be updated for the next generation of software for the Redmond company? Let us find out.
Windows 8 is expected to roll out this late 2012 for personal computers and laptops. Apollo is expected to roll out at about the same time. This new version of get everyone excited. It is said to allow sharing of applications on a variety of devices. This means that applications can be shared from PC to tablet and from laptops to Smartphones.
The software giant announced in the demo that the new version of Microsoft's software will multi-core support sports for mobile devices. In the past, the company enforced strict rules of its partners. This does not allow manufacturers to outfit the devices that run the software with a dual-core. This is because the current version does not support any other processor but single-core CPU. The previous report stated that the new version will roll out to all devices. However, the report said.
Windows Phone 7 will support multi-core processors like dual-core and quad-core. However, according to a report today, it will be too much for a device with a single-core processor to handle. This includes the Nokia Lumia, 710, 800-900, and 610. This also includes other phones made by other manufacturers such as HTC Titan and Samsung Omnia d. If this report is true, it means that the current Windows Phone handsets will be stuck with the next version of the operating system. This is a version of the Tango. This is just a minor update.
If this is the case, then there would be a good idea to get your hands on handsets such as Nokia Lumia 800. After all, it's never going to get an update to the latest version of Microsoft's mobile operating system which is expected to be held towards the end of the year. However, because Microsoft has yet to confirm these reports, take this information with a pinch of salt. This is still probably the Redmond company will update all phones that run the Windows Phone Apollo. This means that you may be able to share applications from one device to another device.
There is no way to know whether the report is true or not because Microsoft has yet to confirm it. Even so, mobile phones such as Nokia Lumia 800 has received positive reviews. This means that the phone will still give you your money's worth.
