Because HERE Maps is deeply integrated in Windows Phone 8, the apps will continue to work on that version of the Windows Mobile operating system, however there will be no new features developed and updates will be limited to security updates. It will then download and install Windows 10 on their mobile. Microsoft will need to clarify how Windows 10 games and apps will function on the console and we should get all of this info at the Build conference later this month.
T-Mobile has offered quite a few Windows Phone 8.1 devices in the past, and anyone that's still rocking one today is probably wondering when they'll get an update to Windows 10 Mobile, Microsoft's latest mobile OS.

However, Microsoft said not all devices will be receiving the bump to Windows Mobile 10, admitting that it likely won't do much good for the performance of older devices.

Sources familiar with the company's plans told VentureBeat that the software giant will announce the same-day availability of Windows 10 Mobile on March 17.
Originally slated to roll out to older devices at the end of 2015, Windows 10 Mobile has already been available on some newer handsets that shipped with the operating system installed.
