It is recently reported that the Alcatel One Touch Fire and the ZTE Open are the first Firefox OS
phones shipping this summer. You might think that there is not much to
boast on the specs-front for these devices, but their availability does
provide consumers with a different platform to choose from especially
with the likes of Android and iOS becoming pretty popular as well as common these days
So don’t be surprised if you hear about more companies jumping on the Firefox OS bandwagon. Well, Sony Mobile has now disclosed plans to launch its Firefox smartphone in 2014.
Sony Mobile and Telefónica have entered into a multi-year agreement that “confirms the operator's ranging support for Sony Mobile's 2013 Xperia Android device portfolio, as well as laying out a joint technical collaboration to explore the development of a handset running Mozilla's Firefox OS open source mobile platform.”
Bob Ishida, deputy chief executive officer and head of products business group, Sony Mobile Communications, said: "Our engineers are now working with Firefox OS Mobile and HTML5, evolving technologies which show great potential. In addition, we continue to work with our operator partners, including Telefónica, on a development project with an ambition to bring a product to market in 2014."
