Hey, have u installed the latest build of windows 10 on ur lumia 920? Any comments? Should I upgrade my 920 too or wait for a more stable build?
 
Well to be honest. 10080 wasn't buggy to irritate on a daily basis. It depends on the usage I would have to guess. The new store was insanely slow an a few quirks here and there.

But as recommended by everyone its better not to install on a primary device.

I'm in the process of installing 10136 on my L920. Will share my experiences.
 
I am also interested if its stable enough to use it on my main device (l920). Would be happy to get some news on that :)
 
Well . I have it installed. It seems to be working fine. The use of dual stores is creating a bit of a problem installing or updating apps.
 
I have it installed. One bug for me is that I can't uninstall apps.... Otherwise running smooth so far
 
Phone Call, Text Messages, etc... all work fine. I still can't uninstall apps. I will install WhatsApp and take a look
 
I also see this when going to phone update.

When I click install now it looks like it starts to update for a half second the refreshes and shows the same above.

Soft reset your phone and i think this update is for the store beta so u can uninstall apps and get other like someone mentioned
 
apps crash a lot when using the keyboard

but i have to say 2 things... the start-up time of the camera app is BLAZING fast, even for a "dated" L920, also noted that the file transfer via USB is a little bit faster too, my music collection was on my phone again pretty quickly
 
im much more satisfied now.
has a really weird and apparently rare graphical glitch where keyboard and other UI elements disappeared. it made me ditch the insider preview for a long time.

This build has cured that. I do see the app crashing when typing that someone mentioned above but otherwise the build is cool
 
So is it usable enough for a daily driver? Planning to upgrade here.

If you can't afford to nuke your device and start fresh on a moment's notice, its not for you.
Not yet.

How is the battery life? How much it's estimated to last?

Too early to tell.

I threw it on my 920, having relegated it to a secondary role for the time being.
The upgrade went smoothly, but the device was nigh unusable. Something was screwy with the lockscreen. I've since managed to access the settings and initiate a hard reset there. The 920 is currently setting up and this one's opinion is that it looks good. Be careful if you can't afford to hard reset. YMMV.
 
This build is much better than previous builds; however, it's not good enough for daily driver yet. Installed and played with it for long time, then decided to go back to win 8.1. Everything is not fast enough for me. But everything is looking great so far. Can't wait for better solid build to use it as daily driver.
