Owners of unlocked Nokia Lumia 920 smartphones in the UK can now download and install the Windows Phone 8 Portico update for their devices, it seems.

The update has started to arrive on Windows Phone 8 handsets around the world several weeks ago, but it appears that Nokia has actually delayed its release for the unlocked Lumia 920 devices in the UK.

However, users are already starting to receive notifications on the new platform release, WMPoweruser notes, which means that the official rollout has already started.

Furthermore, those who own an unlocked Lumia 920 can also check on the availability of the new software manually.

Portico arrives on smartphones with various camera improvements from Nokia, as well as with enhancements to messages, better Wi-Fi connections, and the option to reject an incoming call with a text message.
