Want to know how to get started with a new Lumia? This Microsoft infographic will help

For all those who are new to Windows Phone and have purchased, or will purchase a Lumia handset (be it the new Microsoft Lumia 540 or Lumia 640, or older models like the Nokia Lumia 730, Lumia 930, etc), Microsoft today posted an infographic that should help them get started with their smartphone.

The infographic presents some of the things that you should do after powering up a Lumia handset for the first time, including: how to create a Microsoft account, how to resize tiles, how to download apps from Windows Store, how to change themes and background images, or how to set up Cortana.

As you may know, Windows Phone is quite different from both Android and iOS, that's why, for those switching from these OSes to Microsoft's platform, it may take a while to get used to it. As for first time smartphone users who are trying a Lumia, they probably need the details from Microsoft's infographic even more.

As a reminder, later this year, most Lumias that currently run Windows Phone 8.1 will be updated to Windows 10. Also later this year, Microsoft should finally release its first own-branded flagship smartphones, reportedly called Lumia 940 and Lumia 940 XL.
