While Microsoft has yet to post a new update for Windows 10 Mobile, the company is currently rolling out a firmware update for one of its new smartphones, the 5.7-inch Lumia 950 XL in the U.S. and Canada. This is the same firmware release that was rolled out in other parts of the world a few weeks ago.

According to our tipsters, the new firmware version number for the Lumia 950 XL is 01078.00027.15506.02005, with the hardware revision number of 4.0.3.1. Microsoft previously revealed what's included in this firmware update:

  • Stability and performance improvements.
  • Improvements for SD memory card support.
  • Improvements for automatic display brightness settings.
  • Fix for a camera problem that was causing noisy images in low-light conditions for some users.
  • Fix for a 4K video problem that was causing stripes to show up while playing back recorded videos for some users.

Thanks to everyone for the tips!
