Microsoft released build 14283 to Windows Insiders in the Fast ring. The new build brought a couple of improvements and bug fixes to the system and its features but like the previous build, it is only available for devices that shipped with Windows 10 Mobile.
The update is only available for Lumia 950, 950 XL, 650, 550, Xiaomi Mi4, and ALCATEL ONETOUCH Fierce XL. Microsoft said that the company plans to start delivering updates to older devices once Windows 10 Mobile is ready for the official release. Until then, users of Windows 10 Mobile Preview will receive cumulative updates with just some bug fixes and minor improvements.
Microsoft still hasn’t mentioned anything about the release date of Windows 10 Mobile for older devices,but it is believed the upgrade will arrive by the end of March, so probably one of the next few builds will be available for all Windows 10 Mobile devices.
Windows 10 Mobile Preview Build 14283 features
Windows 10 Mobile Preview build mainly brought improvements to the system and to some Microsoft apps. The phone app for Windows 10 Mobile was updated with two new indicators: one for voicemail and another for missed calls. However, while a bug present in the update might have the indicator disappear, Microsoft promised that a solution will arrive in the coming builds.
Besides the Phone app, Microsoft also improved its Outlook & Mail app for Windows 10 Mobile. In Outlook, you can turn off the message preview text in the message list. There’s also a new option for deleting junk emails from the Junk folder in Outlook. As for Outlook Calendar, there’s an “I’ll be late” option which you can send to others in case a user is not able to make it to an appointment on time.
Along with these improvements, Microsoft also confirmed that the Feedback Hub app is coming soon. And finally, Microsoft also provided a list of all fixed bugs and known issues in this update.
