Xbox Live gets a new look and feel in the Mango update

With the release of the next update of the Windows Phone OS called, Mango Xbox Live receives an overhaul.

We earlier heard about Mango a few months ago with it featuring in Nokia’s new and upcoming range of Windows handsets but today I can tell you that popular gaming social platform, Xbox Live is like you’ve never seen it before. Yes, really!

Initially, you will notice a brand new interface on the Windows Phone Xbox Live Hub with updates to the current icons style wise, a brand new recent category which is pretty useful if you’re a regular because what it will do is store as it says your three most recent games played. This then makes it easier and quicker to begin that addictive game again! Also, alongside the new facelift, performance has also been improved by offering faster response time. Always good, no one enjoys a wait.

Now, something that I quite like is the new 3D avatars who yawn and give a friendly wave once or twice. What do you think of them, do you share my opinion?

Finally, also featured in this update is the chance to send messages and keep a track of all of your friends achievements directly through your Windows Phone.

What do you think of the new update? Let me know below.

What’s my view?

I think yes improvements have been made here for the better to create a more preferred OS, whether or not they will be liked that is something we just have to wait and find out.
