The Nokia Lumia Black software update has arrived in Canada, but the rollout will vary by smartphone and mobile carrier.

According to Nokia, the Lumia Black update has been confirmed for the Lumia 520, Lumia 620, Lumia 625, Lumia 920, and Lumia 1020 smartphones.

The Lumia Black update has started to rollout for the Lumia 1020 via mobile carriers Rogers and Telus.

The Lumia 520 update is "Waiting for approval" as it's set to be released from mobile carriers Chatr Wireless, Koodo, PC Mobile, Rogers, and Telus.

The term "Waiting for approval," per Nokia, means it's "undergoing final testing with Nokia, country or operator to achieve approval."

The Lumia 620's Lumia Black update is also on the "Waiting for approval" stage, and it will be available from Koodo and Telus.

The Lumia 625, also waiting for approval, will start its rollout from its exclusive mobile carrier Telus.

Rogers will distribute the Lumia Black update for the Lumia 920, but the update is listed as "Waiting for approval," too.

"Nokia Lumia Black updates the imaging experiences on your Lumia and makes using the Windows Phone even more fluid," said Samuli Hänninen, vice president of software program management for Nokia's Smart Devices business, via Nokia Conversations.

He also added, "I also encourage everyone to try out the Nokia Refocus app that introduces a whole new dimension to photography."

Among the new features with Lumia Black is the App Folder, which gives the Lumia smartphone owner the option to organize and personalize their Start screen. Nokia Glance screen 2.0 is also featured in the update and is able to monitor information in real-time from calendar, emails, messages, outlook, or apps such as Facebook, Twitter, and Whatsapp, to name a few.

To check if the Lumia Black update is available, Lumia smartphone owners can go to "Settings" to "Phone update."
