Microsoft released Windows 10 Mobile Preview Build 10586.71 earlier this week. Mobile users can now expect to receive another build next week.
Another Windows 10 Mobile Preview releasing next week:
As users still await the release of Windows 10 Mobile for their Windows Phone devices, Microsoft continues to fix the bugs in the mobile operating system, making it more stable. According to some latest reports, Microsoft will release Windows 10 Mobile Preview Build 10586.104 to insider members next week. Core Insider Program tweeted this bit of information, however, note that the account is not associated with Microsoft. The account seems to have a good track record as its information on Microsoft releasing Windows 10 PC preview 14257 proved to be on fleek.
Windows 10 Mobile build 10586.104 should be available for Insiders in the Fast ring in the coming week.

This upcoming preview build isn't expected to bring any new features as the company keeps its focus on bug squashing and improving the performance of the operating system. The last preview build brought quite a lot of bug fixes to the mobile OS, including:
- Windows Update performance and reliability improvements
- Improvements in migration of data profiles and messaging settings when upgraded from Windows Phone 8.1.
- SensorCore API’s are now upgraded correctly from Windows Phone 8.1; allowing applications, including many fitness applications, to correctly access movement data.
- SD card detection has been improved on boot and after insertion; File Explorer now handles the removal of an SD card when the default for apps or photos are set to SD.
- Improvements in the Edge browser, including PDF rendering.
- Bluetooth improvements when re-connecting to already paired devices and cars; turn by turn directions, and when using Cortana with the Microsoft Band.
- Improvements in Settings when downloading Maps or changing Quick Settings.
- Reinstalling Groove Music from the Windows Store no longer causes DRM music playback issues. Groove Music local song collections are now more quickly imported within the application
- Device power improvements after listening to music, after missed phone calls when iris detection is disabled, and when downloading updates.
- In app purchases now work correctly when cellular data is disabled.
We will update you when the build is released to the Fast ring members of the Windows Insider program.
