Who is Symbian Belle and how does she look?

Symbian Belle is the latest in a series of planned software updates to the Symbian platform, which started with Symbian Anna and will continue into 2012. Having said that, I personally have tried Belle on Nokia E7, with no single doubt, it is simply the best Symbian experience anyone could get. Or best smartphone experience too!

This version of Symbian has brought in a numerous changes to look and feel. Some of them are number of home screens increased from three to six providing more room to display applications and services. Live widgets, now come in five different sizes, making the home screens come alive and giving users more flexibility to personalize the user experience. It also includes a pull down menu and taskbar to access notifications from any of the home screens and further enhancements to the Web browsing experience.

Belle also supports NFC sharing like never before. Which allows contacts, videos and images to be shared with other NFC-enabled devices and smartphones, as well as pairing with NFC-enabled mobile accessories such as speakers and headsets. Gaming fans also benefit from the NFC capabilities of the new handsets with the ability to unlock additional levels in Angry Birds or find a hidden blade in Fruit Ninja just by touching two NFC-enabled devices together.
