Had my first chance to play with some of the GeeksPhone devices over the past week. Have to say despite previously being VERY skeptical about Firefox OS, they were really pretty great! The platform holds a lot more promise than I imagined and they have come incredibly far in the past year.
My next device will probably be a Nexus 5, but that just might be my last Android.
- brokenparser 13y agoThe Geeksphone devices are sold out, but you can get a ZTE Open with FirefoxOS on eBay for only $80/£60. Details at https://marketplace.firefox.com/developers/dev_phone https://marketplace.firefox.com/developers/dev_phone
- RussianCow 13y agoThere's a single Geeksphone on sale on eBay right now: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Geeksphone-Keon-Smartphone-FireFox-OS-Developer-Preview-New-In-Box-/271296009496?pt=Cell_Phones&hash=item3f2a809518 http://www.ebay.com/itm/Geeksphone-Keon-Smartphone-FireFox-O... :)
- Groxx 13y agoHow is the ZTE Open for dev purposes? I'm not familiar with how Firefox OS handles OS updates, but will I (essentially) always be able to update it?
- brokenparser 13y agoIt has fastboot just like unlocked Android devices. More details here: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Firefox_OS/Developer_phone_guide/ZTE_OPEN https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Firefox_OS/...
- TsiCClawOfLight 13y agoI would get a Jolla. That looks really promising.
