t was actually quite surprising to read that
Microsoft bought the Nokia phones business, but these things happen and we can
only speculate about the reasons. Perhaps this was the plan from the beginning,
rebuild Nokia phones, and transfer it to Microsoft when the product is ready.
Now it is ready, a complete line of Lumia devices, from low end to the high end
1020 super camera phone. Market share is increasing and profit is around the
corner. This kind of radical moves have been seen before as Nokia dumped
consumer electronics to concentrate only on mobile phones in the 1990j’s.
Now Windows Phone and Lumia is still great,
that does not change, and only the future can tell whether Microsoft is able to
use this new asset wisely , please consumers and make profit.
Now what about the Amber update, actually it
did something great, it extended battery life nearly three times, at the moment
I get nearly three full days from one charge, from the previous less than one
day. It also put in some new features, Camera Pro, a clock you can use without
opening your phone and other features. But I think most of the Amber update is
not directly visible, but did a great deal to improve the phone.
The update itself takes a long time, several
hours, not minutes, and just leave your phone untouched, I had mine plugged to
the charger to be on the safe side and went for lunch. It looked dead for a
long time, showing just the empty battery sign, but in the end it started an
entirely new life. I am very pleased with Amber.
