[sukanya pundir]

Recently, the well-connected @evleaks revealed some interesting information about this matter. He said Microsoft is in the final phases of licensing the Nokia brand so that the devices can launch under the "Nokia by Microsoft" brand name.

He also mentioned some extremely surprising news. Ready for it? Well, he believes Microsoft will ditch the Surface brand for good, and the upcoming tablet line up will launch under the Lumia brand. I know it's a bit difficult to digest, but he says its to streamline the company's tablet portfolio.
