Nokia Nseries was a multimedia smartphone and tablet product family engineered and marketed by the Nokia Corporation. The Nseries devices commonly supported multiple high-speed wireless technologies, such as 3G, or Wireless LAN. Digital multimedia services, such as music playback, photo/video capture or viewing, gaming or internet services were also supported. The line was replaced by the Nokia Lumia line as the company's flagship smartphone portfolio.
The Nokia N1 tablet was introduced in November 2014 and so revived the 'N' prefix. However the company have not marketed the 'Nseries' brand so far.

On December 2, 2008, Nokia Nseries announced the Nokia N97. On February 17, 2009, Nokia announced the Nokia N86 8 MP, which is Nokia's first 8-megapixel phone. The Nokia N8 with 12-megapixel camera was announced in April 2010 and on 21 June 2011 Nokia showcased their Nokia N9 based on MeeGo OS, their fourth non-Symbian Nseries device (after N800, N810, N900).
