Windows 10 Mobile is still sitting in beta form awaiting a full release, but yet the new version of Microsoft’s mobile platform is starting to make gains in the Windows market.

AdDuplex, a research company has published results that show the beta of Windows 10 Mobile has found its way onto 5.7 per cent of all Windows platform smartphones. That means the as yet unreleased OS is on some 3 million device, suggesting that users of Windows will be sending adoption rates soaring when the full release lands.

Windows Phone 8.1 is still leading the pack with a massive 79.3 per cent stake of the market, but we think Windows 10 Mobile will eat into that number very quickly.

Windows 10 Mobile is still not available in its full finished version, but the beta version of the software is already making its presence felt on Windows smartphones. Windows 10 has already swept through the PC market, but Microsoft has been taking a slower approach with its Mobile software.
