Nokia, once the global leader in mobile manufacturing, teamed up with Microsoft for the Lumia range of Windows smartphones. However, the Windows-powered devices failed to gained popularity. In 2014, Microsoft continued selling cheaper basic phones under Nokia’s name and Lumia smartphones under its own name, but last year, it largely abandoned both businesses.
