Microsoft delays Windows 10 Mobile official release until "early 2016"



Microsoft has delayed the official release of its new Windows 10 Mobile operating system for smartphones.

It was scheduled for December 2015, but the software giant now says it's been put off until "early next year".

So, you have two options if you want to get Windows 10 Mobile. Join the Windows Insider scheme, download the app to your phone, and update to the latest beta version of the new OS.

Or buy a Lumia 950 phone, which has been released with the new OS already installed.

To be honest, it's not surprising MS has delayed the official launch, because the current version - as used on the 950 - is really not ready.

It has bugs and generally feels unfinished. So probably better to wait.
