After numerous rumors, recently leaked screenshots of Windows Phone 8.1 may just be first "real" ones.

Two images have been posted online recently that give us a preview of changes made by Microsoft in its yet to be released Windows Phone 8.1 OS. One image (shown below) was posted on XDA Developers forum named “Lumia 620 with WP8.1 or GDR3 ?” by a user named 'when im gone' who alleges to have found an SD card with a screenshot on it. It shows a Lumia 620 with a notification tile with both Skype and Outlook together. The WiFi indicator can be seen on the left part of the notification bar.



The other photo which shows a similar notification tile was published by Windows Phone PL. The notification bar on the top also includes a “star” which, likely, is a sign for unread notification.


Microsoft seems to be bringing some changes in the interface which is expected because this update is expected to be an extensive overhaul.
Both these photos seem to compliment a screenshot that Microsoft's Joe Belfiore accidentally posted to Twitter recently.

Windows Phone 8.1 update is expected to debut in early 2014 and Microsoft has already been pushing small updates..
