First - Facebook dedied smartphone


Few weeks of rumors and speculations and here we have - new device, called First and crted together with (and for!) Facebook. It's surely not a flagship model, but also not a low-end device.
Actually it has quite nice specifiions:
Platform: Android 4.1Processor: Qualcomm® MSM8930AA 1.4Ghz, dual-coreMemory: 16 GB, 1 GB RAMGSM850/900/1800/1900/2100, HSDPA 21/5.76, LTE4/17Display: 4.3-inch, HD 720pBattery: 2000mAh (non-removable)Main camera: 5 MP camera with auto focus, LEDflash,BSIsensor, f/2.0 aperture, 28mm lens, 1080p recordingFront camera: 1.6 MP cameraDimensions: 4.96 x 2.56 x 0.35 (in) (LxWxT)Weight: 4.37 oz
What is special about this device, is very deep Facebook integration. It has its own Facebook launcher instd of Sense launcher. What else?

Personally, I'm verycurioushow this device will work with its custom launcher and what will be customers judgement. I think it has a huge potential. The id of new custom launcher is more then interesting. Let's take a quick pick how it looks like:





To me, it seems to be very simplified version of Android launcher. It might be a grt choice for users who are not expecting their phone to be multimedia all-in-one device, but they want to sily stay in touch with their friends using the most popular social channel. There is also Instagram pre-installed, so sharing your grt moments captured with 5 MP back camera will be sy as well.Additionally, it is very likely that the overall systemperformancein First will be very good. Qualcomm 1.4 GHz dual-core CPU in pair with 1GB of RAM memory will probably bring you smooth user interface experience, considering the fact that device doesn't have pretty hvy Sense on board. So, do you think it is a device for you?
