One of the enhancements that the new Windows Phone 8 platform will arrive on devices with is a new Start screen, aimed at increasing the personalization options that users can benefit from.

According to Microsoft, the new Start screen in Windows Phone 8 has been tailored to support each user’s specific needs.

The handset won’t be a simple phone, but it will be a reflection of user’s personality, the Redmond-based software giant claims.

In the video above, you can have a look at the main changes brought to Windows Phone’s start screen, such as resizable live tiles, and more, all meant to reduce the time users spend on the phone.

“Live Tiles are the heart and soul of a Windows Phone. With the new start experience, your Windows Phone is even more personal than ever before,” Microsoft notes.
