Finally, the wait is over! So the good news is that Microsoft has started rolling out first stable build of Windows 10 Mobile. It is very well known that company was testing this OS since last year with the help of Windows Insider program. The program is still alive and Microsoft will keep testing new builds via it.
Well, Windows 10 Mobile now looks more powerful and robust OS. The company engineers has worked hard for providing it great UI at the end. The OS now gets its own built-in File Explorer and data encryption facilities. I read somewhere earlier that the OS will come with built-in call recorder as well but I couldn’t find it in existing edition and I hope it gets included in next builds.
