Windows 10 update for older Windows Phone 10 devices gets delayed till early next year



Windows 10 update for Windows Phone 8.1 gets delayed
I've got some bad news for Windows Phone 8.1 device owners, Microsoft has officially announced that the Windows 10 Mobile update for older devices will start rolling out early next year.

Microsoft previously stated that the Lumias running Windows Phone 8.1 would be getting Windows 10 update in December this year, though now it has past the middle of the month already, the official time frame change has been made official.

As published in zdnet.com, the official statement from one of company spokesperson reads:

"This November we introduced Windows 10 to phones including brand new features such as Continuum and Universal Windows Apps with the introduction of the Lumia 950 and 950 XL. The Windows 10 Mobile upgrade will begin rolling out early next year to select existing Windows 8 and 8.1 phones."

And the most disturbing thing is that the time frame stated lately doesn't exactly clarify the time as the early next year may mean as late as April, and it is also unknown which Windows Phone 8.1 devices would get the Windows 10 update as well.

Currently The Microsoft Lumia 950 and 950 XL and budget friendly Lumia 550 runs on Windows 10 OS for Mobile devices. So, now Windows 10 Christmas present for Windows Phone 8.1 owners, hopefully Microsoft releases the Windows 10 update soon. We will let you know if anything new we come up with, so visit us regularly for further news updates.
