Waiting for the Lumia 535? Here it is!
Microsoft Mobile has officially launched the first smartphone in the Lumia lineup without the Nokia branding in the PH: the Lumia 535. Every single smartphone until the 535 that was launched after Microsoft bought Nokia’s mobile phone arm had always had the Nokia branding on them, which has officially halted with the 535. It’s replaced by the prominent Microsoft Mobile branding on the back of the device, along with the company’s Windows logo.
