SAN FRANCISCO – Microsoft on Thursday announced two new Lumia phones aimed at the entry-level smartphone market and an update to its Windows Phone operating system for Lumia phones that looks to enhance the camera experience.

Microsoft also announced what it calls a new "affordable flagship," the Nokia Lumia 830. Priced at about $430 unsubsidized (330 euros) it will begin rolling out globally this month. No word on U.S. carriers or exact availability.

The Lumia 830 sports a 10 megapixel PureView camera, integrated wireless charging and what Microsoft says is the thinnest optical image stabilization system to date on a Lumia. It comes pre-loaded with Microsoft Office Mobile and 15GB of free OneDrive storage. It ships with the new Windows Phone 8.1 update, dubbed "Denim."

The entry-level dual SIM Lumia 730 (199 euros unsubsidized, or about $260) and 735 (219 euros, or about $290) are "built for Skype calls and selfies," Microsoft says. They each have front-facing, wide-angle, 5-megapixel cameras and come with a three-month Skype Unlimited World subscription thrown in. The Lumia 735 supports LTE/4G and wireless charging. They also begin shipping globally this month.
