Plans to update (http://www.engadget.com/2012/12/18/nokia-reiterates-windows-phone-7-8-updates-2013/) the Nokia Lumia 900 (http://www.engadget.com/2012/04/03/nokia-lumia-900-review/) with Windows Phone 7.8 (http://www.engadget.com/2013/02/03/windows-phone-7-8-hands-on-cosmetically-yours/) have been slow-going, to say the least. Today, however, marks the beginning of a new life (http://www.engadget.com/2012/06/20/visualized-nokia-lumia-900-windows-phone/) for the aging handset, as it welcomes a much-anticipated (http://www.engadget.com/2013/01/29/nokia-lumia-900-on-att-may-get-windows-phone-7-8-on-january-30/)7.8 refresh. Naturally, this means the former flagship is getting an injection of new features and improvements -- namely, that revamped Start screen with flexible tiles. Users will also enjoy various enhancements to the lock screen, including the option to use Bing's image of the day as a wallpaper. Rounding out the list are various other under-the-hood tweaks to make the experience smoother and help close the gap with current smartphone powerhouses (http://www.engadget.com/2013/03/12/htc-one-review/).
