It was first reported that Microsoft would release the Windows 10 Mobile OTA (over-the-air) update to its devices, including Lumia 430, Lumia 535, Lumia 540 and Lumia 640, in December 2015, before reports suggested it would happen in February this year, but it never happened.
Microsoft is yet to announce the Windows 10 Mobile update schedule for its devices, but reports have claimed it will happen this month. Evan Blass of VentureBeat has now claimed Microsoft has revealed in an email to partners the software update will come this month after the Lumia 950 and 950 XL receive the regular monthly service updates.

The report went on to claim that the software seeding will be passive initially, which means users will have to update manually, but the active roll-out is expected at a later date.
