Microsoft is a bit late with the Lumia Denim update but they are about to launch it in the following weeks. Initially programmed for the end of 2014, the update didn’t come until now on the market, a fact which disappointed a bit their fans. In fact, they started putting the update but in very limited number and also in very few markets so it was like it wasn’t there. Now, it expected the update shall be done by device.
Official statement
In fact, Microsoft plan the update including for some smartphones like Lumia 435 and Lumia 532, both being priced at below 100 dollars each, most cheapest from all the Lumia series. This is another story though so we have to concentrate on what counts right now, the Lumia Denim update. About this action, Microsoft even delivered some official words recently: "The Lumia Denim update has started rolling out to a limited number of devices in selected markets and will continue arriving in waves by device. A wider rollout of Lumia Denim to all Lumia smartphones running Windows Phone 8.1 is expected to begin this month following partner testing and approvals."
