Hi,

I have recently bought a Lumia 2520 tab that works on Windows RT 8.1.

I wanted to know if this Windows RT can be upgraded to Windows 10. If yes, then it would be really great. Else I will have regret for buying an operating system that has no future.

Hoping for your quick feedback.

Thank you.

Shiva

    Microsoft have indicated that there will be an RT version of Windows 10 during the recent presentation however it was a very limited statement, hopefully we will get some clarity later

    "We are working on an update for Surface [Windows RT], which will have some of the functionality of Windows 10. More information to come."

    I wish people would stop saying this half truth all over the internet.  Of course Windows 10 for RT is not going to have all of the full blown functions of x86 Windows 10 even if some legacy compatibility is transferred. There will still be an update for windows RT and it has been confirmed that Microsoft plans to continue pursuing  ARM based software.  The Atom chips still have nothing on the power speed sustainability and energy efficiency of an ARM processor in one package.  The limits of the amount of RAM ARM processors can support are also being over come. Samsung for example has already proven this.
