BLU Win HD grabs official Windows Phone 8.1 GDR1 update! Those who own the affordable – and highly stylish – BLU Win HD Windows Phone will want to force-check for an OS update. BLU in conjunction with Microsoft is pushing out Windows Phone 8.1.1 build 14203, one the latest versions of the Windows Phone OS. By comparison, the Preview for Developers program is up to version 14219, so as an official update, this is quite close. BLU Win HD users will find an exciting surprise upon installation: three-column support is now the only option for layout of the Live Tiles on the Start screen. Some users may not like this, but from our experience, it looks great on the Win HDs dark black display. Additionally – and I hesitate to say this – but the OS really does feel faster. This is actually a very big deal as the BLU Win HD ships with a modest 1.2 GHz Snapdragon 200 CPU. In terms of graphic performance, this is as low as you can get on Windows Phone, but this puppy is pushing a 5-inch 720P display. With todays OS update, it certainly feels more optimized for low-end hardware, with fewer hesitations and pauses when scrolling or loading apps. Indeed, it almost seems like a new device. Even the new OneDrive comes pre-installed, which is a nice tough. We are still digging around for anything else that is new, but for now, go ahead and grab the update.
