Windows Phone 8 will get more consumer-friendly in September

Microsoft will reportedly unveil new consumer features for Windows Phone 8 at the Nokia World summit this September.

According to a Chinese Windows Phone site, Nokia's summit in Finland will be home to a rundown of consumer-focused features for the new OS.

While Microsoft provided a system overview of Windows Phone 8 during its Windows Phone summit last month, the preview was more geared toward developers by highlighting support of multi-core processors, multitasking, and NFC support.

The consumer side of what to expect from Windows Phone 8 software has been more quiet, delving into the new start screen and interface yet leaving many questions still unanswered.

Of course, being a Nokia event, the main attraction will be the company's own smartphones, and at least two Windows Phone 8 devices are expected to announce at the Nokia World summit.

Code names for Nokia handsets are circling the web lately, including the Lumia 910, Lumia 920, Lumia 950, and Lumia 1001, as well as the Nokia 510 and Belle 805, thanks to a leak through a developer tool.

Nokia is already a close partner with Microsoft on Windows Phone 8 making Nokia's event an opportune time to announce new details on the OS's consumer features.

Nokia World 2012 will kick off in Helsinki, Finland on September 5.
