Windows 8 upgrade for Windows 7.5 users


Unfortunately, those who have Windows 7.5 will not get Windows 8 update. But they will be provided with Windows 7.5. You can think of it as an OS between Windows 8 and Windows 7.5. Windows 7.8 will contain some of the main features of Windows 8 features like the resizing your tiles in small, medium, or large, etc.



For those who use handsets run on the Windows Phone 7.8 platform, Nokia stated that it will deliver existing Lumia customers exclusive new Marketplace apps such as Camera Extras to bring new possibilities to the Lumia line up including panorama shots, a self-timer, Action Shot for capturing movement, and Smart Group Shot for creating the perfect group shot from several different images; new features for Nokia Drive and Nokia Transport; and also distributing a pattern of updates such as Wi-Fi tethering and flip-to-silence.

Handsets running the Windows Phone 7.8 operating system will not be able to get the Windows Phone 8 update. Nokia had stated that Lumia devices with Windows Phone 7.5 will be provided with updates to some of the new Windows Phone 8 features, such as the start screen. The devices will also be allowed to download new apps from companies such as Zynga, whose Words with Friends and Draw Something will be available by the third quarter of this year.
