Microsoft claims Windows 10 upgrades for all Lumia Windows Phones

Whether or non all electric current Windows Phones would get the Windows 10 update due side by side twelvemonth is certainly on the minds of many people. In the past, I accept detailed why the chances of a Windows ten update beingness available were much higher this time effectually, as opposed to the trend-breaking Windows Phone viii Os.

On November eleven, the official Lumia Twitter account has publicly declared all Lumia phones with Windows Telephone 8 would go an update next year.

In a tweet responding to @_Y06_, the Lumia account is quite explicit virtually the new OS:

"There will be Windows ten upgrades for all Lumia Windows Phone eight devices :) And nosotros volition release new Windows x models in the futurity!"

We should caution that technically speaking, Microsoft's Twitter account is not necessarily their press channel, but information technology is rather official. Nonetheless, nosotros are currently not aware of any technological limitations as to why electric current phones could not be updated, reaffirming the @Lumia tweet.

Currently, it is much as well early to start speculating nigh update timeframes, carriers, and which devices will become the Windows 10 update. Grade sources we have spoken to, those decisions, take notwithstanding to be made. However, it is looking very likely that all Windows Phone 8 Lumias will be getting that update onetime in 2022.

Possibly fifty-fifty more than interesting is the reference to 'Windows 10 models' in the future, as this statement omits telephone from the description. Every bit noted in the by, Microsoft is dropping references to 'phone' in regards to Windows 10 smart devices, and this seems to be another example of that shift in marketing.

Are any of yous feeling better about Microsoft'south tweet regarding Windows 10?
