A co-worker forwarded a few articles to me this morning, about Microsoft selling off at least part of the Lumia line.

The feature phones were never part of the Lumia brand. So what is this "good riddance" talk, CNET?

They sold off their factory in Hanoi Vietnam and all of the assets produced there. This includes the 950 and 950 XL

As part of the deal, Microsoft will transfer substantially all of its feature phone assets, including brands, software and services, care network and other assets, customer contracts, and critical supply agreements, subject to compliance with local law. The transaction is expected to close in the second half of 2016, subject to regulatory approvals and other closing conditions
