After a series of delays and false alarms, Microsoft confirmed in an email to its partners that it is finally ready to roll out Windows 10 Mobile this March. Vodafone Italy listed the Lumia 535, 635, 735, 830, 930, 950, 950 XL, and 1520 phones to get Windows 10 Mobile update.

Based on the report of Venture Beat, the Windows 10 Mobile rollout has faced several delays. Several tentative release dates were announced but was later discredited by Microsoft as inaccurate. This month, Microsoft confirmed a March release date of Windows 10 Mobile in an email to partners. Users who have been waiting for the release of the update may finally be able to access Windows 10 Mobile.

The launch of Windows 10 Mobile along with the Lumia 950 and Lumia 950 XL last October made it the most highly anticipated software update. According to Indian Express, a Vodafone Italy representative published, via the carrier's official Twitter account, the list of phones slated to get the update. It suggests that the Lumia 535, Lumia 635, Lumia 735, Lumia 830, Lumia 930, and Lumia 1520 are also included in the list.

Tech Times featured the latest updates and improvements users will have on Microsoft's newest Windows 10 Mobile. New features of Windows 10 Mobile include a browser, called Microsoft Edge, comparable to Internet Explorer. An improved user interface and a new keyboard would enhance overall user experience. Furthermore, apart from Microsoft Lumia phones, Microsoft is planning to update other handsets running on Windows Phone 8.1 from companies such as Samsung, HTC, Huawei and more.

Microsoft has confirmed that there will be two separate processes for the Windows 10 Mobile update. Lumia 950 and Lumia 950 XL would be the first to receive Windows 10 Mobile service updates. Subscribers might expect a passive update of Windows 10 Mobile for other devices. Users may initiate the update manually from their phones' Settings menu.

Other Windows handsets will get an OTA firmware of Windows 10 Mobile between March 7 and March 13. It is recommended that users of Windows 8.1 phones and other eligible devices will first install the recommended firmware updates before getting Windows 10 Mobile.
