Microsoft showed off a new logo for Bing under the name Microsoft Bing, but it's still unknown if it's a rebrand, a fully new name, or even a secondary logo or not. This logo has only just started appearing on Smartphones and Computers. As of right now, the Bing App hasn't been updated to include the new logo.
While this seems like a secondary logo and likely is one, the Bing logo has been updated to use this logo on the search page. It currently hasn't been confirmed if this will (fully) replace the current logo or not, but the current search pages suggest that it's likely a new logo.
The name of the article (Bing) will not change to "Microsoft Bing" until this is a confirmed new logo/name.
