Windows 10 Mobile is an edition of the Windows 10 operating system. This edition of Windows 10 is a mobile operating system that succeeds Windows Phone 8.1 and is designed for smartphones and small tablets under 8 inches in screen size, running on ARM as well as IA-32 processor architectures.

The first Technical Preview for Windows 10 Mobile was made available for download to select Lumia smartphones as of February 12, 2015. Additional Lumia devices were supported in subsequent builds. Versions released after Build 10080, released on May 14, 2015, also work on the Windows Phone variant of the HTC One (M8). Although the M8 is currently the only non-Lumia Windows Phone included in the preview program as of build 10149 released on June 24, 2015, Microsoft has assured that future builds will add support for more non-Nokia, non-Microsoft Windows Phones, though not all devices will be included. No release date for the final version has been announced; Joe Belfiore confirmed that due to how the OS is being developed, it will not be released in parallel with PC editions of the platform.
