Two months from now, a wide range of Nokia mobile phone users will enjoy a new UI on their devices, the Nokia Belle, previously known as Symbian Belle.

The Finnish mobile phone maker has just made the official announcement on this, and also confirmed the handsets that will receive it: Nokia N8, Nokia E7, Nokia E6, Nokia X7, Nokia C6-01, Nokia C7, and Nokia Oro.

The Nokia Belle user interface will be made available for download for these devices in February 2012, the company has just announced.

Moreover, the leading handset vendor announced that the new platform UI will start shipping on new units of smartphones that are already available on shelves.

“Launched earlier this year with Nokia 701, Nokia 700 and Nokia 603 smartphones, the UI has received lots of positive feedback from our customers,” Adam Fraser notes in a post on Nokia Conversations.

He also explains that new flavors of Nokia N8, Nokia C7 and Nokia C6-01 have started to emerge on shelves in China with the new operating system on board.

“For those already owning a Nokia N8, Nokia E7, Nokia E6, Nokia X7, Nokia C6-01, Nokia C7, and Nokia Oro, the wait for Nokia Belle is almost over,” he continues.

“Starting in February 2012, Nokia will release the all new Nokia Belle software update to existing customers and you’ll be able to download it right on to your phone, bringing a whole heap of improved features.”

Some of the features and enhancements that the new Nokia Belle UI will bring along include more home screens for apps and widgets. There are six of them now.

Moreover, Belle brings along some improved functionality for widgets. At the same time, Nokia has modified some of these widgets to ensure that users receive more information from them that what they used to receive in Symbian Anna.
