17 March, 2016
The update is on its way over-the-air to some handsets that have been on Windows Phone 8.1 so far.

    People wondering about DATA LOSS, let me tell that I forgot to even screenshot the "missed calls" from dialler, and was worried cuz I dint, however, to my surprise, the call log and everything was untouched! And yes, the FB has received a very good update and a facelift in this one!

    I would recommend to not take chances and save your data and back it up though! enjoy ! :)

      Just Received the update on my Lumia 1520, thanks to GSMARENA that I keep following. (this was when I was awake at 2.30AM btw) :D
      Regarding the update, I experienced 0% update for several minutes, making me worry if it would happen. However, I put off the "battery saver mode" and it started downloading and went more than 1% .
      The update later on was errorless and if I could recall, the CYAN update took more time than this Windows 10 Mobile. That was surprising. Moving on, the update surely is a killer one! Its way too amazing and a lot of things done right! Good job MS ! The best ones that received a much needed overhaul is OUTLOOK & ONENOTE APP ! They really changed it for good this time ! The formatting options and even putting a HYPERLINK in the email text is something I was totally surprised to see at !

      People who are abusing MS for not having it for other fones, guys relax, it will come soon, once this batch is done, there must have been some hardware thingie that must have kept it at bay.
      All in all, a real 10 on 10 for Windows mobile 10 ! Good job MS :D

        Got the update here in Doha this morning. Although after updating it changed my language to Arabic. I had to change the language manually but the phone kept on scheduling the update even though I had installed the updated and all these reupdating was taking the language back to Arabic. Finally had to remove Arabic permanently,switched off location,changed region to one of the english speaking countries and it seems to be working ok for the past 30 minutes

                  But how did you get the update from Microsoft page at
                  https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/store/apps/upgrade-advisor/9nblggh0f5g4
                  since below the "Get the app" button it states clearly:
                  "You can’t get this App. This page is for info only." ?

                  The button is inactive!

                                      if you upgrade does it completly wipe all your apps and game save data? or are they backed up and restored like they never changed ??
                                      (i have many hours in a game and dont want to start again, as when i have to reset my device it didnt restore game saves even though they were set to backup)

                                        Well...it's about time MS. Took you awhile, but I guess you don't have much time recently, between killing Xbone, paying devs for exclusivity and other bad marketing decisions, it must be hell in there.
