Microsoft's Nokia is one of the company's feature phone asset that's recently been acquired by Foxconn and HMD Global for $350 million. The handset will still use 'Nokia' as the brand name.

According to UniversityHerald, Microsoft has made tough decisions, including the discontinued of Xbox 360. Microsoft selling its feature phone Nokia could be something expected as a part of the company's reorganization.

BBC published a story explaining that Nokia is an unwanted extra and Microsoft core business is never a feature phone. However, the decision to acquired Nokia and then sold it, might be sensed as a blunder in the past by the public.
