Gallery: Windows 10 Mobile Insider Preview Build 10149

 

When we shared a handful of leaked screenshots from Windows 10 Mobile Build 10149 earlier today we had no way of knowing that the same build would be officially released to Windows Insiders.

Late on Thursday afternoon that is exactly what happened and now we have a much fuller gallery of screenshots for you to peruse.

Just from collecting these screenshots together I can already tell that this build is well beyond 10136, which was released 9 days ago, in the performance category.  The significant lag when tapping a tile and opening the app is gone now thankfully.

This build does still have some issues but with the improved performance alone might be enough to push this towards daily driver status.

I did have one weird thing happen though after the install. All of the tile icons in the Action Center were flashing and would not respond to any input.  After a reboot they all cleared adn began working except for the Quiet Hours tile.  I then went into my Cortana Notebook and turned on Quiet Hours but it was still flashing.

I tried one last reboot of the phone and it remains flashing and unusable so more troubleshooting is required.

The overall fit and finish has continued to feel and look smoother as well.

Senior Content Producer, IT Pro Today (Informa Tech)

I served for 29 plus years in the U.S. Navy and retired as a Master Chief Petty Officer in November 2011. My work background in the Navy was telecommunications related so my hobby of computers fit well with what I did for the Navy. I consider myself a tech geek and enjoy most things in that arena.

My first website – AnotherWin95.com – came online in 1995. Back then I used GeoCities Web Hosting for it and WindowsObserver.com is the result of the work I have done on that site since 1995.

In January 2010 my community contributions were recognized by Microsoft when I received my first Most Valuable Professional (MVP) Award for the Windows Operating System. Since then I have been renewed as a Microsoft MVP each subsequent year since that initial award. I am also a member of the inaugural group of Windows Insider MVPs which began in 2016.

I previously hosted the Observed Tech PODCAST for 10 years and 317 episodes and now host a new podcast called Faith, Tech, and Space. 

I began contributing to Penton Technology websites in January 2015 and in April 2017 I was hired as the Senior Content Producer for Penton Technology which is now Informa Tech. In that role, I contribute to ITPro Today and cover operating systems, enterprise technology, and productivity.
