Although Windows 10 is currently downloading itself onto PCs around the world, we're still waiting for Windows 10 Mobile to be released. Microsoft has now announced which Windows Phones will be getting the new software first.
When Windows
10 Mobile releases later this year (possibly November) the first
devices to get it will be the Lumia 430, Lumia 435, Lumia 532, Lumia
535, Lumia 540, Lumia 640, Lumia 640 XL, Lumia 735, Lumia 830, and
Lumia 930.
If you're
not too familiar with Lumia devices, this is a pretty diverse range
of handsets that covers budget and low-end devices as well as
higher-end smartphones.
In order to
get Windows 10 Mobile, the Lumia device will need to have the Lumia
Denim update installed.
It's little
surprise that the first Windows Phones to get Windows 10 Mobile will
be Microsoft-made Lumias, especially as few manufacturers so far have
built Windows Phones.
However if
you do own a non-Lumia Windows Phone, you should hopefully still get
Windows 10 Mobile at some point, though we haven't heard any details
just yet.
