Video shows off Windows 10 Mobile Build 10158 emulator

Windows 10 Mobile Build 10158 has been released, but not for those who are members of the Windows Insider program. Right now, the build can only be checked out by those using the Windows 10 Mobile emulator. The latter can be downloaded from the Microsoft website. Among the features included are the transparent Live Tiles.

The People Live Tile will show images of your contacts inside of little round circles. That sounds like a feature that should make it to the launch. The emulator also comes with an update to the camera app revealing 120fps video recording capability. This should result in some smooth slow motion videos when using it on the camera adorning the back of a Windows 10 Mobile phone.

In the Windows Phone Store, the emulator shows a new feature. In-app purchases offered by a freemium app are now listed. The information displays all of the in-app purchase options inside such an app, and how much they cost. And subtle changes are apparently coming to Cortana as the virtual voice-activated personal assistant looks cleaner in this build. 

Windows 10 Mobile could be pushed out later this year, possibly in September. By the way, if you're interested in checking out the Windows 10 emulator yourself, click on the sourcelink.
