While Microsoft has already begun the rollout of Windows 10 Mobile build 10586.107 to phones, it was only available for those devices enrolled in the Insider program. Today, build 10586.107 makes its way to the production channel to non-Insiders.
The cumulative update doesn’t include new features, but it includes a number of fixes and improvements on Bluetooth, Microsoft Edge, storage, Outlook, and much more. In addition, Microsoft is making some tweaks to improve the battery life when using Windows Hello with the Iris scanner.
According to an entry at the Microsoft forums, the new update will start rolling out on “open market variants” and more devices will be included in the coming weeks.
