The Nokia Lumia Black update has arrived in France, but the software update's rollout varies on both mobile carriers and smartphone model.

The Lumia Black update will be distributed for the Lumia 520, Lumia 620, Lumia 625, Lumia 720, Lumia 820, Lumia 920, Lumia 925, and Lumia 1020 smartphones. The French mobile carriers, however, will not rollout the update simultaneously.

According to Nokia, the Lumia 520's Lumia Black update will be available from mobile carriers Bouygues, LPM, Orange, and SFR. The update is currently on the "Waiting for approval" stage.

"Waiting for approval," per Nokia, has been defined as "undergoing final testing with Nokia, country or operator to achieve approval."

A "Country variant" carrier will rollout the update for the Lumia 620, but it has been categorized as "Coming soon."

"Coming soon" means the update has been "approved, in final pre-release checks."

The Lumia Black update for the Lumia 625 is also on the "Waiting" phase from Bouygues and Orange. SPR commenced its distribution of the Lumia Black for the Lumia 625.

Bouygues and Orange are "Waiting" to rollout the update for the Lumia 820. The Lumia 920 continues the "Waiting" trend from Orange and SFR.

Finally, for the Lumia 925 and Lumia 1020, the Lumia Black update is available from Bouygues, Orange, and SFR, respectively.

"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.

The Lumia Black update features include 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."
