Microsoft had earlier planned the Windows 10 Mobile upgrade for old Lumia devices in December, though later officially confirmed that the update has been delayed until ‘early 2016’. Now it seems that the upgrades are finally ready to hit phones, as the Redmond giant has launched an internal beta for the Windows 10 Mobile Upgrade Advisor app.
To get the Windows 10 Mobile update when it arrives, Windows Phone 8.1 users need to have the Lumia Denim update (version 8.10.14219.341, or higher) to be eligible for the upgrade. In addition, they would require 8GB of internal storage with 1.5 GB of free space.

A new lawsuit is demanding $5M in damages from Apple phones
for intentionally slowing down performance of legacy iPhones. The plaintiff claims that Apple has been engaging in deceptive business practices of purposely slowing down 100 members’ iPhone 4S’s.
for intentionally slowing down performance of legacy iPhones. The plaintiff claims that Apple has been engaging in deceptive business practices of purposely slowing down 100 members’ iPhone 4S’s.After performing the upgrade in software, these iPhone 4S’s have apparently become so bogged down that they have become unusable in day-to-day conditions. Both first and third-party app loading delays are significantly longer with reported freezing and crashing as well.
This bogging down of software performance is said to encourage users to upgrade their old devices to newer iPhones.
The lawsuit continues by also claiming false advertisement from the installation notes for the new update. While these notes mention faster performance, enhanced security, longer battery life, and new app features, these same notes lack a warning of possible compatibility issues on older devices like the iPhone 4S.The same lawsuit is aimed at Apple’s ecosystem saying that rather than upgrading to another phone OS, Apple’s business structure of apps and music is more likely to keep people from jumping ship to avoid losing the investments of money spent on apps and music.
