Nokia releases Symbian Anna update

By Christopher Park on 18 August, 2011

Even with the previous announcement that Nokia was going to focus on Windows Phone, it's nice to see the company didn't forget its existing Symbian users.

The new update, Symbian Anna, is available on Nokia N8, Nokia E7, Nokia C7, and Nokia C6-01. The update brings a lot of good changes to the phones including:

  • UI changes - crisp icons, multiple usability enhancements, QWERTY keyboard available in portrait mode, and split screen viewing
  • Maps/Navigation - enhance Nokia Maps with better search, public transportation routes, check-in ability for geo-tagging apps
  • Browsing - faster browser, quicker page loads
  • Business - improved data encryption for business users to access company intranets with IPSEC and SSL VPN
  • NFC (Near Field Communication) - Nokia C7 users can tap their phones to share contacts, photos, video, pair NFC-enabled accessories, and read NFC tags

    • The delivery schedule of the new update has not been released, but will depend on the market that users are in.
