Microsoft To Soon Shut Down Windows Phone And Windows 10 Mobile OS Divisions?

Microsoft has been a company which has been coming out with a large number of updates and upgrades over the years. The company has been coming out with several changes to the way the world of technology functions, and has been working on the mobile phone and hardware device divisions now. However, despite their best efforts, the Windows 10 Mobile OS and Windows Phone devices have not been working out that well. The markets have been responding rather negatively to these devices and Microsoft has been losing out on their market shares rather rapidly.

If the insider rumors are to be believed ,the company is 'done' with the mobile phone division and might soon be working on a plan to shut it down. This move has been something which has been discussed heavily by the top level management as well as the investors.

Microsoft has been considering this move for a while now, as last year, the reports that came out were rather gloomy. Microsoft had lost out $8 Billion in their mobile phone division, and it was later revealed that in 2015, Microsoft had also lost out 50% of their existing market share in terms of sales.

The company now stands at an abysmal 1% of the total smartphone markets, and has been coming out with a large number of updates and upgrades for their devices, including a major update where the older Nokia Lumia mobile users will now be getting the brand new Windows 10 Mobile update.

However, in a time where nothing seems to be going their way, Microsoft now looks like they have decided to pull the plug off their smartphone division, and the world of technology at large might soon be bidding goodbye to the Windows 10 Mobile and the Windows Phone divisions.

This change in the company's priorities was made evident when they did not make a single announcement regarding the Windows Phone and the Windows 10 Mobile OS divisions during the entire Build 2016 event.
