Yet it supplies you with limited gaming experience (PS3 controller) which is lacking in is and Windows phone.There is even an updated phone dialler. That is, it is designed in such a manner that you can see up to contacts directly from the dial pad.d. You can even have animated wallpapers.

Windows Phone 8.1

The latest release of Windows OS version for smartphone and desktop version from Microsoft is Windows 8. But the Windows phone 8.1 is also known as Windows Phone Blue is the next great version of Windows from Microsoft for smartphone as well as tablet devices especially for Lumia. The major feature of it will be a new notification center, swipe style keyboard like that of the Android OS.

Applications
This translation may include an application of 3D touch technology. This may add up with the devices named “Goldfinger” and “Moneypenny” from Nokia and “Huron” from samsung . It employs a detector that notices the presence of user without touching the screen. This is will be the first one to provide with such an awesome application. And the sources also reveal that back button might be supplanted with “on screen button” providing a scope for bigger screen in time to come. This feature lacks in other two OS.

The upcoming Cortana – voice command service is said to be the major feature of this OS. It was built up as an answer to the Android’s Google Now and Apple’s Siri voice command help.
