Series 40
Series 40, often shortened as S40, is a software platform and application user interface (UI) software on Nokia's broad range of mid-tier feature phones, as well as on some of the Vertu line of luxury phones. It was one of the world's most widely used mobile phone platforms and found in hundreds of millions of devices.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Forum Nokia - Nokia Series 40 Platform )〕 Nokia announced on 25 January 2012 that the company has sold over 1.5 billion Series 40 devices.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Nokia hits 1.5 billion sales of revolutionary Series 40 mobile phones )〕 S40 has more features than the Series 30 platform, which is more basic. They are not used for smartphones, in which Nokia primarily uses Windows Phone, and up until 2012 Symbian. However, in 2012 and 2013, several Series 40 phones from the Asha line, such as the 308, 309 and 311, have been advertised as "smartphones" although they do not actually support smartphone features like multitasking or a fully fledged HTML browser.〔http://www.engadget.com/2012/09/25/nokia-outs-asha-308-and-309-deems-series-40-smartphone-worthy/〕
In 2014, Microsoft acquired Nokia's mobile phones business. As part of a licensing agreement with the company, Microsoft Mobile is allowed to use the Nokia brand on feature phones, such as the Series 40 range.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.theverge.com/2013/9/3/4688888/there-will-never-be-another-nokia-smartphone )〕 However, a July 2014 company memo revealed that Microsoft would end future production of Nokia's feature phone lines in favor of Windows Phone.
==History==
Series 40 was officially introduced in 1999 with the release of the Nokia 7110. It had a 96 × 65 pixel monochrome display and was the first phone to come with a WAP browser. Over the years, the S40 UI has evolved from a low resolution UI to a high resolution color UI with an enhanced graphical look. The third generation of Series 40 that became available in 2005 introduced support for devices with resolutions as high as QVGA (240×320).〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Series 40 UI Style Guide – Forum Nokia )〕 It is possible to customize the look-and-feel of the UI via comprehensive themes.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Carbide.ui Theme Edition (can be used to create S40 themes) – Forum Nokia )〕 In 2012, Nokia Asha mobile phones 200/201/210, 302/306/305/308/310/311, 303 and 311 were released and all used Series 40.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title= Device specifications, filtered for Series 40 )〕
