The S60 Platform (formerly Series 60 User Interface) is a software platform for mobile phones that uses Symbian OS. The S60 is currently amongst the leading smartphone platforms in the world. It is developed primarily by Nokia and licensed by them to other manufacturers.

The product provides a unified GUI to support voice, chat, messaging, phone book, and contact applications. This further improves customer usability.
