Windows 10 Mobile Upgrade for Windows Phone Lumia Devices In December

Terry Myerson, executive Vice president of Windows and Devices Group, Microsoft, confirmed in a blog post that more than 110 million devices around the world are running Windows 10 to date.

The news came from the official Microsoft Lumia page when asked by a user about the Windows 10 update for phones such as the Lumia 640 and Lumia 640 XL. "We built Windows 10 for a new era of more personalised computing", Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella said.

"Windows 10 is available on PCs and tablets now, and while Lumia 950 and Lumia 950 XL ship with Windows 10 for phones, broad availability of Windows 10 on other devices, including mobile phones, will begin rolling out in December", Microsoft in a reply to a user's query about availability of Windows 10 on Mobile.

"We're moving people from needing to choosing to loving Windows, and these devices promise to fuel even more enthusiasm and opportunity for the entire Windows ecosystem", added Nadella.

It will also feature a new Surface Pro 4 Type Cover which is a redesigned version of the previous Type Cover and will feature keyboard backlighting and new scissor design for smoother typing.

Inside, the Surface Book has a PCIe 3.0 solid-state drive, with either 128 GB, 256 GB, 512 GB or 1 TB of storage space.

The Surface Pro 4 with its sixth generation Intel Core Skylake processor and integrated Iris Pro graphics on board is 50 percent faster than the MacBook Air, reports Phone Arena.

Pre-orders for the Surface Pro 4 start on October 7 starting at United States dollars 899.

Lumia smartphones have always been known for their camera sensors and the Lumia 950 and 950 XL are no exception.

Microsoft has also released the Lumia 550 4G LTE smartphone, which also runs on Windows 10. The Lumia 950 includes a 5.2-inch display and a Qualcomm Snapdragon 808 processor with hexacore CPUs.

All three devices will be available soon.

The company also unveiled its latest wearable device, the Band 2.

Once you have this update set up on your Lumia smartphone, you can enjoy Cortana, the OneDrive feature as well as a brand new Office and Outlook, a revamped UI and more. Alongside a continuous optical heart rate monitor and onboard Global Positioning System, the smart band still tracks calories burned, deep exercise and sleep quality - and now records floors climbed - all while maintaining up to two-day battery life.

It is expensive, though, with the base model priced at US$1,499, and the range-topping model costing $2,699. However, loyal Microsoft users were let down when the company failed to announce when the new Windows operating system would be available on existing Windows phones.
