Lumia, pureview, clearblack and other Nokia brands now owned by microsoft

Though Microsoft’s purchase of Nokia’s Devices and Services division was announced late last year andcompleted in April, the fate of Nokia’s trademark technology brands has still been unknown. Brand names like Lumia smartphones, ClearBlack displays and PureView camera technology have become synonymous with innovation and quality, much like the Nokia name itself.

And though the Nokia name will eventually be disappearing from the faces of Windows phones, it looks like some of the those mainstay Nokia brand names, along with a few surprising ones, will continue on with Microsoft.

A recent check into those well-known Nokia trademarks has revealed that they are now owned by Microsoft Mobile Oy, the division created by Microsoft’s acquisition of Nokia’s Devices and Services division.
