Microsoft last week pushed the Windows 10 Mobile Redstone 2 preview version 14926 to the Fast Track Insider member. Now the foreign media brings us the installation experience and the evaluation of this version.

Build 14926 installation experience:

Build 14926 installation experience on different devices. On the lumia 640 XL, the installation takes about 40-45 minutes, and on the Lumia 550 and Lumia 650, the installation fails, and Microsoft has listed it as a known issue. If it fails, you can remove the SD card and try it again.

Build 14926 impressions (performance, multitasking, games, battery life, etc.):

We use Build 14926 for three days, performance is not bad, but bugs and problems after introducing new code Start to appear.

Build 14926 is impressive in performance and responsiveness.

Conventional daily tasks are smooth, such as starting screen navigation, scrolling through the list, turning settings on and off, handling calls and text messages, and more.

So far we have not encountered a system level crash.

For other important content, mobile data and Wi-Fi links work well on our devices.

The app store works fine in this version.

There is a problem with system level sharing again.

Microsoft Edge has problems with the addition of the new feature Snoozing, and we have found that tabs crash when viewed heavily.

Local applications such as maps, cameras, Outlook mail and calendars run without problems.

The game is running well and recovering from the background multitasking state is also very fast.

Application multitasking is impressive, applications are quickly recovered from the background, and applications do not crash in the background during multitasking.

Battery life is significantly worse in Build 14926.

Main bugs and problems:

The operation center can only be slid up from the bottom to close/fold, and cannot be slid in the blank area to close.

There is a problem with sharing, and there is a problem with Microsoft Edge.

Upgrade issues seriously affect some devices

SIM cards can't be used
