Interested Windows Phone customers including enthusiasts, developers and IT professionals have to sign up for the Windows Insider Program and register their device in order to get the update. The early Windows 10 build will be received by users in form of over the air updates. Microsoft promises that it shall roll out newer builds right up to the consumer launch of Windows 10 for phones. If any user finds any bugs or wants to make some suggestions to Microsoft regarding their new operating system, they shall be able to do it with the help of the built-in Windows Feedback app. Unlike the Windows Phone 8.1 technical preview, customers will be given the option of reverting back to their existing Windows Phone version at any time.

Microsoft admits that current builds of Windows 10 for phones are not polished and provides a detailed list of issues along with their workaround in the launch announcement #-Link-Snipped-#. Even though, Microsoft proudly claims that these experimental builds have not bricked a single phone in their offices, it goes on to warn that it is not impossible that your phone might get bricked in the process of the upgrade. While Microsoft is planning to provide a detailed look into Windows 10 for phones at the Mobile World Congress to be held in Barcelona next month, its corporate vice president Joe Belfiore has uploaded a video on YouTube in which he showcases some highlights of the operating system including full-size background image for Start, more quick actions in action centre, interactive toast notifications, enhanced speech-to-text capability and a revamped Photos app. You can check out the embedded video below to see these features in action and continue reading on this development at the source link below.
