Last week, Microsoft introduced a new test build of Windows 10 for smartphones. The list of supported models listed Lumia 630 and 635, which means that the system works on devices with 512MB of RAM. However, the most popular device on Windows Phone in the list is not ranked.
Lumia 520 – the most popular smartphone on Windows Phone. For summer 2014 has sold over 12 million units. Against the background of Apple in smartphone sales, this figure looks funny, but for the Microsoft operating system component is very, very high. At the moment, this budget is not in the best-seller list of supported devices Windows 10 Technical Preview, but enthusiasts still have managed to run this devayse new operating system. Its responsiveness is not so high, but you can work.
Will Lumia 520 official update? Previously, Joe Belfiore wrote on Twitter that the Lumia 520 will receive the update, though truncated and, therefore, on the street and users of this device should still happen holiday, because the promise has already been given. Hope this event gives Microsoft and arranged sale on eBay. The company distributes Lumia 520 at a discount of 70% for just $ 29 a pair with a contract from AT & T. However, this act of goodwill can be interpreted in different ways.
But whatever it was, leave the most popular budget smartphone without the “new things” would be very strange, considering that Microsoft increases the presence of its operating system in the market is through budget devices.
