Windows 10 Mobile Update for old Microsoft Lumias delayed until 2016

The company has been on top of their game when it comes to most of their divisions, and have been performing quite well in the markets. However, that too, does not look quite apparent at the moment. "We continue to use the feedback we get from Windows Insiders to improve the upgrade experience and this update has some improvements to that experience", he said as he encouraged users to constantly check the Insider Hub for updates where they will start posting new announcements. Microsoft, which was expected to bring a new update for them in this month, has let down the users once again. 

Microsoft was planning to roll out the Windows 10 mobile upgrades to the Windows Phone 8.1 devices in December, but the users will need to wait until early 2016 to upgrade to the latest OS version. It has also not given out any list of the possible Lumia models that will upgrade to Windows 10 Mobile. 

The company has confirmed that the Lumia 550, unlike its high-end devices such as the Lumia 950 Dual SIM and Lumia 950 XL Dual SIM, will not support Windows 10 Continuum feature, which makes smartphones behave like computers with a desktop-style interface. Microsoft said in a statement. As you know, Windows 10 mobile came installed on the Lumia 950 and 950 XL devices that have been released in November and Microsoft has promised that soon enough, the rest of Windows Phone 8.1 devices will receive the upgrades. 

The unlocked Lumia 950 was briefly available for purchase at Microsoft Store US, but it now shows as out of stock and there's no telling when the next units will arrive.
