W10M on Lumia735

[FAHMI BASSEM]

I've been using W10M on my 720 since it's first day, after testing it for over 5 months on my secondary device, I would like to start using W10 on my daily drive -735-....
so have any of you installed it on his/her 735/730? do you recommend upgrading??

thank you!

Hi Fahmi, how are you doing ?
To answer your question, build 10586 works very well on my 730 and it is quite good as long as overall performance is concerned. As you know, WM still has some little quirks here and there, but overall OS is quite good (I think it is smoother and faster than 8.1 now) and I recommend you to install it. Just one thing (that annoys me a lot ), you won't be able to hide on screen navigation bar while using some apps like WhatsApp or Twitter.

You will see a negative impact in battery life (with almost no apps set to run on background),
I remember the good ol' days (WP8.1) when the battery lasted about 24 hours under the same usage as I put it through now on W10m.
Now it lasts for about 12-16 hours (aka usually dies on the end of the day).

Other than that it is running pretty good, no problems for my usage thus far.
On the most recent build ( .29) it hasn't crashed/rebooted at all, so W10m is heading to a nice "public release" road

Also it is very slick and beautiful on this screen, you'll love it!
