Microsoft Unveils the Lumia 535 without Nokia

Microsoft

Microsoft’s first Lumia device was officially unveiled as the Lumia 535 today, a low-cost smartphone that underlines exactly where the company is heading with Windows Phone.
Microsoft’s Lumia 535 isn’t all that different from the Nokia devices that have come before it, but it’s the first to drop the Nokia branding in favour of Microsoft text at the rear and front, and a company logo on the colorful removable shell. 

 

All future Lumia devices will launch with Microsoft branding, and existing Lumias with the Nokia name will continue to be known as Nokia handsets.

Microsoft is betting on low-end handsets to push Lumia sales and Windows Phone market share, a tactic that Nokia adopted before its phone division joined Microsoft earlier this year.
