Nokia earlier this week started rolling out the Nokia X Software
Platform v2.1.0.11 for the X2 Dual SIM (RM-1013) smartphone users
over-the-air. The smartphone was launched in June
running the Nokia X Platform v2.0, based on the Android Open Source
Project (AOSP).
The announcement of the update was made by a
company employee by the username 'armagon', on the official Nokia
Discussions forum page, saying,
"Today we have started rolling out a new software update for the Nokia
X2 Dual SIM (RM-1013) owners. This is a major/global release, bringing
the phone software version to Nokia X Software Platform 2.1 (2.1.0.11),
and will be available via OTA (Over-The-Air)."
Nokia X2 Dual SIM
device owners can check for updates by going to Settings > About
Phone > System Updates and tapping Check Now.
The highlight of
the Nokia X Software Platform v2.1.0.11 is the support for Google-based
services, namely Google Contacts sync
and access to user's Gmail inbox.
Notably, these features were missing from the previous Nokia X Software
Platform v1.2 update for Nokia X, Nokia X+, and Nokia XL handsets.
With
the update, Nokia X2 Dual SIM users have also received a camera app
update allowing them to make use of a new Smart Mode to capture objects
that are in motion. Other new features include Action shot, Best shot,
or Motion Blur, which are already present in several Lumia-branded
handsets.
The '194MB' Nokia X Software Platform v2.1.0.11 update
also features Microsoft's OneDrive
and OneNote sync. As a part of the update, the Nokia X2 Dual SIM users
would now be able to store files up to 15GB on OneDrive, while having a sync feature of
up to 500 notes on OneNote.
The
update introduces Here Maps for Nokia X2 Dual SIM users. Also included
are turn-by-turn voice guidance and free global navigation license.
However, users would need to update their Here Maps app to the latest version via
Nokia Store to be able to access the global navigation feature.
The
Nokia Store app has also been redesigned to help users find content
easily, and the company says the store now also has better integration
with 3rd-party stores.
Other changes that come with the Nokia X
Software Platform v2.1.0.11 are local calendar support, call reject with
a message, parental controls for Store, landscape support for mail and
messaging, auto-configuration of mail accounts, live wallpapers, and new
lock screen widgets.
Nokia has not yet mentioned the list of other devices which will receive the Nokia X Software Platform v2.1.0.11 update.
