In this tutorial. Your devices have to have the minimum 512MB memory and I am upgrades from Lumia 635 512MB Windows 10 Mobile AU. and minimum 2GB above free space, so the faster method is reset the device to free the storage room. and a cooling solutions for your devices, because along the way on upgrading the device going to heating up and causes many unexpected errors, what's i discovered
Always pick the devices specification's close to your devices. I feels the Model Name was the key for the customized profiles configuration for the devices, means better don't set Lumia 635 as Lumia 950, too far away from the hardware specifications and performance. In this case, i choose to Lumia 650 RM-1152. I tell why later on.

if you having issues Store failed to updates system apps, just reset the devices, applied the settings and let Store updates all the apps. When all apps updated finished. You can uninstall those apps you don't want or some apps taking too much space, and reinstall apps to SDcard.
Remember, New apps will save to : This Device . to avoid apps installations issues.
Restart device everyday or when the system not working smoothly. In-case Soft Reset the Lumia devices, repeat it 3 times after the Nokia logo.
Charging the battery before dropped to below 60%. Avoid full cycle from zero to 100 percent and overnight charging. Instead, top-up your phone more regularly with partial charges. Ending a charge at 80-90 percent is better for the battery than topping all the way up to 100 percent. For fast charging just putting device into airplane mode.
