In continuing with their rebranding effort, Nokia today announced that Ovi Store has now been renamed to Nokia Store.

Along with the rebranding, the new Nokia Store has now been built using Qt Quick which means that the new client will be easier to use & will be much more speedier than the WRT based Ovi Store.

In addition to the new branding to “Nokia Store”, features of the enhanced Nokia Store client include:

  • Improved user experience and usability
  • Improved client start-up time, and improved page-loading times and general UI performance
  • Permanently visible navigation elements, and support for the new Belle UI style
  • Next-generation payment checkout flow

Here is an video from the Nokia Store team showcasing the new look & functions of the store -

For individuals, this update to the Nokia Store client should arrive on smartphones any day now – users will be prompted to make the update when they open the app – but for those that can’t wait, there is a beta version of the Store QML client in Nokia Beta Labs now.
