Nokias naming convention

Do you like the naming convention of Lumias? Names like Lumia 925, 1520, 1320, and so on? Personally I think the names sound cool, but it can be hard to keep up with. As a WP user I am familiar with which device is which, but it is probably confusing for anyone who isn't. If I didn't know anything other than the fact that Nokia Lumias are Windows Phones, I would assume that the higher the number, the better the device. Which is kind of true, but a higher number can also mean a different type of device, like a phablet or a tablet. While I don't love everything about Samsung, I think Galaxy and Galaxy Tab make it pretty clear that one is a tablet, and one is either a phone or a tablet.

Do you think Microsoft will continue this trend or just try to go with a similar naming convention to the iPhone or Samsung devices? Do you think we will be saying "dude , I cant wait to get the new Lumia 169209 tomorrow!" one day?

Nokia has been doing this for hundreds of years.. I think sometimes the number doesn't really make sense unless you are a Nokia fan. Maybe making the number to be short and adding a letter somewhere will make more sense to people. Like Lumia T25.. T means tablet...

I actually think that is a fantastic idea. Lumia T25 still sounds unique (kind of sounds like an early Terminator model), but it makes sense.
