Nokia's UK division posted the following to its Facebook and Twitter pages:

Nokia also took a jab at Apple for introducing a new gold color for the iPhone 5S, the more expensive model:

Nokia wasn't the only phone company doing trying to market itself on social media during the Apple event. Samsung purchased a trending topic on Twitter for the day to advertise its least Galaxy smartphone and smart watch.
