First Microsoft branding on Lumia

Microsoft revealed its plans to drop the Nokia moniker
on its Lumia smartphones last month, and it appears
that a new device with the new Microsoft Lumia
branding is on the way soon. Images from Chinese
regulator TENAA show a new Lumia handset with
Microsoft branding at the front and rear in what appears
to be a bigger version of the Lumia 530. The new device
is simply labelled RM-1090 for now, but it offers dual-
SIM support with what will likely be low-end
specifications.
As part of Microsoft’s official announcement, the
company did hint that a new Lumia would be launching
soon. This new handset appears to be the latest low-
end Windows Phone from Microsoft, an approach that
the company is using to try and push the overall
operating system market share as it struggles to
compete with Android on cost and features. Microsoft
has launched the Lumia 530, 630, 730 , and 830 over the
past few months, all with a focus on price and
availability. Little else is known about this newly leaked
handset, but an official unveiling before the holidays is
highly likely.
