With opening of IFA 2014, Microsoft has announced a few new phones in its famous Lumia series. However that's not all. The company has also announced the all new Denim Update for Lumia 930, Lumia Icon, Lumia 1520 and newly launched Microsoft Mobile Launches Nokia Lumia 830: Features, Tech Specs & Price In India Detailed. The company made important changes to Cortana and camera in Denim update.

Denim update also introduces Lumia Camera App replacing Nokia Camera App. This camera substantially reduces the shutter speed to milliseconds. A long press of camera button starts 4K-quality video recording at 24fps. You can now capture images with auto-HDR and dynamic flash.

Your favorite personal digital assistant-Cortana is now available as you need her. Just say “Hey Cortana” and she’ll show up with no necessity of tapping the microphone button on your screen. Denim update also helps user to maintain privacy and security when using data while connected to wifi hotspots.

    yeah its true that windows phone turned out to be interesting after the release of 8.1 update. I use lumia 1520 with At&t as my carrier should say that performance of it has been increased after update . The only lacking are the apps..

    #-Link-Snipped-# Good to know that. Hopefully developers will also work on apps to give cut-throat competition to Android and iOS.
