However the sale may start from 18th Feb 2016.  Lumia 650  Lumia 650 has all promising features and it fills the gap nicely between the new generation Windows 10 powered budget Lumia 550 and the flagship Lumia 950 and Lumia 950 XL. So Lumia 650 becomes the fourth model of the Windows Smartphone that has Windows 10 out of the box notwithstanding the eligibility of many other older Lumias currently running Windows 8.1 that might run Windows 10 mobile OS very soon.  Lumia 650 has 5” AMOLED screen with a better pixel density, Corning Gorilla glass, 16 GB internal memory, support for external memory through microSD card for about 2

We have been using Windows 10 Mobile OS technical preview builds for the last 6 months. And we are very much impressed with the hard work done by Microsoft. Windows phones have been there in the market for years but were not produced by Microsoft before their acquisition of Nokia. However observing what has changed from Windows 8 through Windows 8.1 to Windows 10, we certainly can state with confidence that many things have changed. And positively at that.

The mobile version is still under development but for those interested in using the 'Mobile Insider Preview' version, Microsoft has officially stated their position about which phones will be supported by Windows 10 mobile that is going to be released in a few months. The clue what we can get from the following information found on Microsoft's official site is that all those phones which are eligible for 'Mobile Insider Preview' program will be most probably supported by Windows 10 Mobile full version that is rumored to be released during November 2015.
