    I was shocked when I got the news that Windows 10 update is not scheduled for Lumia 822. I don't know the reason for this. However, that is past. Will soon move to IPhone.

    Kind of betrayal from Windows!!!

    You can still get the latest threshold build 10586.164 via the Windows Insider app, selecting the 'release preview' ring.
    You must appreciate that the Lumia 822 was released late in 2012, so it isn't a great surprise that it missed out on the official Win10 mobile update.

    Build .218 was released after I made my post.
    The OP should be able to get further cumulative updates (for 10586), just not Redstone builds.

    Installed 10586.218 on my 822. Works decent so far with very minor inconveniences. I'd recommend to install it.

    It's pretty much the end of the road for the Lumia 822.
    It has been my daily driver close to 3 years. I've been using the preview builds since September last year and I can say that it has come a long way in terms of performance and stability.

    I just recently got a Lumia 640 and Windows 10 flies on it. I can now see why the Lumia 822 wasn't made eligible for the upgrade.
    The difference is immediately noticeable once I got Windows 10 installed on my Lumia 640.

    You're better off getting the Lumia 640, it can be had for very little these days.

    After getting a Lumia 640 earlier this year, I only use my 822 as a secondary device.
    The TH2 builds were terrible but after installing Redstone, the device runs faster and with much improved battery life.
    Glance doesn't work anymore with RS1.

    Hey,
    Even I am thinking of Updating to preview builds.
    What are the minor inconveniences U are talking about?
    Can U mention some of them so I can determine whether to move ahead with updating to preview build or not.
    Thanks in advance.
