Don't panic. We're actively working on the $25 dollar phone that was reported earlier in the year (e.g. http://www.cnet.com/news/with-firefox-os-mozilla-begins-the-25-smartphone-push/ http://www.cnet.com/news/with-firefox-os-mozilla-begins-the-...). So there will be quite the range of price points to be had.
- darthgoogle 12y agoDo you know if the phone will work with T-Mobile's 3G data? Would be useful if potential customers could quickly see in a table which carriers are supported and upto what data speeds.
- diafygi 12y agoWoo! Great news! One of benefits of having cheap devices is that it significantly lowers the barrier to entry for the developer community. It becomes super encouraging to pick up a phone just to fiddle. However, one of the biggest problems the community ran into for the ZTE Open was that hardly any Mozilla devs had one. So even though it was the most easily obtainable phone for the dev community, it received very little Mozilla support. As these low-end devices push the limits the most for Firefox OS, will the Mozilla team start to work with them more?
- nnethercote 12y agoSome Mozilla devs have them, mostly in the Taipei team where a lot of the work on this phone is occurring. Hopefully they'll become more common as time goes on.
