Today, Windows 10 Mobile for selected Lumia devices has been officially announced by Microsoft. The operating system was demoed by Microsoft almost a year ago. Windows Insiders have been testing Windows 10 Mobile preview builds and shaping the OS with their valuable feedback.
Microsoft had promised to announce Windows 10 for older Lumias and other OEM Windows devices for the public at the end of last year, between November and December.
