It's been a long time coming, but Microsoft is officially phasing out the Nokia brand name.
A post on Nokia France's Facebook page says that the account will soon change its name to “Microsoft Lumia.” Nokia France's Twitter account linked to the post as well, and Microsoft confirmed to The Verge that other countries will follow the same rebranding steps. Microsoft acquired Nokia's device business in April for $7 billion.
