Last week, after Apple officially unveiled the iPhone 5C, Nokia's marketing team headed to Twitter to seemingly mock the company for its latest product, which features multiple colors.
The tweet read, "thanks, Apple" and included an image of the Lumia family (in all its colorful varieties) with the text "imitation is the best form of flattery."
It was a small poke at Apple, but fans seem to have responded in force to the tweet. The tweet has 39,600 retweets and counting and Twitter admitted it was one of the top corporate tweets in history.
Apple is expected to sell over 3 million iPhone 5C this weekend, a figure similar to what Nokia sells in Lumia devices per month.
