With the Lumia 520, the Amber Update is available via Canadian mobile carriers Chatr Wireless, Koodo, PC Mobile, Rogers and Telus.
Telus is also the sole mobile provider to offer the Windows Phone 8 Amber Update with the Lumia 620. Koodo, as of Oct. 3, is in the "Waiting for approval" phase for the Amber Update for the Lumia 620.
Nokia has defined "waiting for approval" as undergoing final test with either the specific country or mobile carrier before approval.
Finally, the sole mobile carrier for the Lumia 920 is Rogers, and the Windows Phone 8 Amber Update has rolled out for the smartphone.
According to Nokia, "To make sure you don't miss out on the notification, check on your phone that under Settings > Phone Update > 'Tell me when updates are available for my phone' is enabled."
As Latinos Post reported, Nokia did not rollout the Windows Phone 8 Amber Update in one huge distribution to ensure "quality standards."
"To ensure the software update meets our quality standards, we're running multiple tests with various country variants and operators," wrote Nokia Conversations' Ian Delaney. "We make the updates available to you as soon as we complete testing. With Lumia Amber we expect to have the update arriving in all Lumia Windows Phone 8 phones by the end of September. Be patient - it's coming!"
The Windows Phone 8 Amber Update includes improvements to the Nokia Lumia's camera, particularly the auto focus, noise filter, and low-light photo-taking capabilities, to name a few tweaks.
