New Windows 10 Mobile build on the horizon

According to Microsoft's Gabe Aul, a new Windows 10 Mobile build is close to hitting the Fast Ring for Windows Insiders.

Windows 10 Mobile build 10052 was released to Windows Insiders on 21 April and so the timing is good for a new phone build.

According to the Ring Master this build, 10080, has a couple of tile layout bugs but Gabe believes Fast Ring Insiders won't mind those:

The big question will be if this new build includes the missing Office Preview apps which were expected at the end of April but delayed for unknown reasons.

One piece of good news for Lumia 930, ICON and 640XL users is that scaling issues for those devices should be fixed in this next build and allow those handsets to once again begin using the Windows 10 Mobile technical preview.

Of course we will post a screenshot gallery of the new build and the Office Preview apps, if they are included, once it goes live.

So is 24 days between Fast Ring builds an acceptable time frame for you or should it be faster?

But, wait...there's probably more so be sure to follow me on Twitter and Google+.

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.
