Updated article to 17h

In February, Microsoft delivered the first version of Windows 10 compatible with mobile devices. While only six models of smartphones Lumia could run the OS. But since the publisher has made some progress in terms of support.

The next build of Windows Mobile 10, earlier than expected for the first week of April, to bear the majority of terminals Existing Windows Phone. This is what suggests the list of compatible devices released by Microsoft on his blog.

If the list is not 100% complete, it is nevertheless widely expanded. Windows 10 has increased from 6 compatibility with smartphones to about thirty, with a few exceptions such as the so Lumia 930.

For this, Microsoft had first to complete the development of a feature called “stitching partition”. This function will enable the company to dynamically adjust the partition allocated to the OS, often too small to allow updates.

Now, Gabe Aul, the owner of Insider program indicates that this feature has been integrated into the main code base of the system and has recently been individually tested on devices last week.

“I can not guarantee date for next build. What I CAN tell you is that we are satisfied with the stitching partition code and current builds, but at least we have an engineering week to make a good version for the extended list of terminals “he explains he said.

Recall that in January, the question, the current Lumia
 will they migrate to Windows 10,
 Chris Weber, VP of Microsoft Mobile Devices business, replied: “Windows 10 was designed to operate
 adequately with current Lumia but as with any migration,
 All Lumia smartphones will not be upgraded or support
 all functions of the OS. Some of these functions require a
 more advanced hardware. Our goal is that the majority of phones
 Lumia hosted by Windows 8 and 8.1 can join the Windows ecosystem
 10 “.
