[PIC] The EPIC Moment When Nokia Said 'Thanks' to Apple

After issuing a Twitter death threat to Samsung last week, Nokia is at it again. This time it is Apple at the receiving end, as Nokia has very cunningly trolled Apple's new 'colourful' iPhone 5C.

Nokia UK took to Twitter and declared that “imitation is the best form of flattery” by showing a bunch of colourful Lumia Windows Phone 8 devices. The iPhone 5C was unveiled today and is Apple’s first foray into colour as it’ll be available in green, yellow, blue, white and red.

The above tweet is not the only potshot that Nokia took at Apple. It also mocked the iPhone 5S for coming in 'gold'

Another tweet followed short after, when Cook announced the gold colored iPhone 5S. The tweet showed the photo of Heisenberg from Breaking Bad and the words, “Real gangsters don’t use gold phones.”

Not satisfied with that, Nokia wrapped up the night by posting this short video of the 41-megapixel camera on the Nokia 1020, with the words, “8 megapixels? Aw, that’s cute. Apple, this is what real innovation looks like :)”

This is not the first time Nokia has taken to bashing/mocking Apple. For example, you can check out this wondering and stunned iPhone zombies commercial, here:

Nokia has taken to YouTube and uploaded an intense commercial that takes aim at the iPhone, specifically its flash. The commercial has a man wondering the streets who’s suddenly approached by a bunch of stunned zombies. The tag line is “The Best Pictures in Any Light. Even Without The Flash.”

...or this pretty slick ad that slams the iPhone 5 for only coming in black and white.

In August 2013, Nokia parodied Apple's "Every Day" advertisements to compare the iPhone5 with Lumia 925 picture taking abilities

This is how Nokia trolled Samsung's Galaxy on twitter just after the launch of the next version of Android OS on September 4
