Nokia gets less creative, announces four smartphone classes
Daniel Carey 
With Nokia wishing to push S60 down the ranks into the realm of low-end smartphones/feature-phones, the Finnish company was left with no other choice than to subdivide their current smartphone ranking system. Low and behold we’re granted with the CSeries, XSeries, ESeries and NSeries. Apart from the slight subdivision, Nokia has also opted to rank handsets in a numerical order from 1-9; 1 being the lowest rated in terms of price, specifications and features and 9 being the highest in terms of price, specifications and features.
Most of this news comes to us via the Nokia Conversations Blog, here’s what they had to say:
This new naming convention is designed to make things easier for users, so they can quickly and easily work out where a device sits within the series and beyond that have a clearer idea of what each series does. Nseries remains the flagship and most advanced range of products. Xseries comes next and focuses on social entertainment. Eseries remains focussed on productivity and business whilst Cseries represents the core range of products.
