Windows Phone 8.1 is said to be one of the biggest updates ever to arrive on Microsoft’s mobile platform, with a huge list of rumored features, now you are seeing what’s said to be the first and only ‘real’ Windows Phone 8.1 screenshot.

The image shows the settings for the upcoming ‘Notification Center’ in Windows Phone, a feature that is expected to mimic Android’s notification dropdown and store all your unread notifications.

You can see 4 toggles that will show in this new ‘Notification Center’ - GPS, Brightness, Wi-Fi and Flight Mode. You can also select notifications from which exact apps to appear in the new notifications hub, and you can see that there is an option to turn on and off at least email and messaging. A murky new feature inside the notifications hub is ‘banners’ that you can choose to show or not. Receiving notifications in this central hub will not disable live tile notifications. Notifications in the new version of Windows Phone will be actionable, so you could respond to them right in that 'Notification Center'.

Redesigned Galaxy Gear 2 expected in March, Availability in April

Korean media is confirming previous Bloomberg reports that Samsung's second edition of the Galaxy Gear smart watch will be greatly improved compared to the first, especially in terms of design.

Samsung has apparently redrawn all the parts in the watch that look conformist and boring, and will be outfitting the thinner Galaxy Gear 2 with a flexible OLED display of a yet-unknown diagonal size. Hopefully besides the thorough exterior renovation we will also see improved software and pairing, as well as better battery life, too.

The new Galaxy Gear smart watch is expected to be unveiled in March with April availability, says the publication, which might mean it will be announced together with the Galaxy S5 flagship. Rumor is that it will also sport health monitoring functions, to battle the abundance of wearables released this year at CES, but also the speculated iWatch from Apple.
