Microsoft is planning to scrap off Nokia X and cut down 18,000 jobs next year.
The company is planning to replace their Android based Nokia X with a window phone, which is expected to launch next year.
Microsoft devices chief Stephen Elop said that they are planning to deliver additional lower-cost Lumia devices by shifting select future Nokia X designs and products to Windows Phone devices, The Verge reported.
He added that they expect to make this shift immediately while continuing to sell and support existing Nokia X products.
The shift means any future Nokia X handsets will run Windows Phone, resulting in the end of Microsoft's Android efforts.
The shift also shows that Microsoft is working to boost Windows phones, Elop said that they would be particularly focused on making the market for Windows Phone
