Microsoft officially released the Windows 10 Creators edition last week, and of course, you can download the update here, but before you hit the download link above, please ensure you check the list of supported devices below. Because, if your device is not supported, you better not attempt updating, unless of course, if you know what you are doing.
The Windows 10 Creators edition will be available only to device already running the Microsoft Windows Mobile 10, and not even all. The following are the list of devices and smartphones upgradable to Microsoft Windows 10 Creators edition.

- Microsoft Lumia 550
- Microsoft Lumia 640/640XL
- Microsoft Lumia 650
- Microsoft Lumia 950/950 XL
- Alcatel IDOL 4S
- Alcatel OneTouch Fierce XL
- SoftBank 503LV

It also confirmed that devices not on this list will not officially receive the Windows 10 Creators Update nor will they receive any future builds, including developer builds. “However, Windows Insiders who have devices not on this list can still keep these devices on the Windows 10 Creators Update at their own risk knowing that it’s unsupported,” said Microsoft.
Microsoft said that it could not provide the best possible experience for many older devices so it decided not to provide Windows 10 Creators Update for those devices. But if you still seek an official version of the new Windows Mobile 10 Creators edition, then perhaps, it time to get another Windows phone.
