It was unofficially official that Microsoft will provide the Windows 10 Mobile upgrade on 17tth March, 2016 and the wait is over for the Windows Phone and Lumia smartphone users. Microsoft has officially started providing the Windows 10 Mobile update to the set of Lumia devices and Windows Phone devices from some other brands.

Phones and devices that can upgrade to Windows 10 Mobile are Lumia 1520, 930, 640, 640XL, 730, 735, 830, 532, 535, 540, 635 1GB, 636 1GB, 638 1GB, 430, 435, BLU Win HD w510u, BLU Win HD LTE x150q and MCJ Madosma Q501.

As expected, few of the popular but low-end devices like Lumia 1020, 920, 820, 720, 620, 520 won't be upgraded to Windows 10 Mobile as these devices are not eligible for Windows 10 Mobile OS considering their hardware specs.

Microsoft has also announced that there is no second wave rollout for the Windows 10 Mobile OS upgrade. So those devices that are not getting the Windows 10 Mobile update this time, will not be able to get it at all.
