I actually dislike Firefox OS, not because of the lack of apps or the architecture (code a new launcher in hours, without having to learn Java), but simply it was horrendously slow.
I had the Geeksphone Keon, as part of the Firefox OS challange from my local mobile carrier, Telenor.
I'm ignoring the battery, since this was a developer phone, but it shipped with a corrupted OS that didn't show any icons and I had to upgrade it to the latest version (stable, I might add), and then apps would close, it was really laggy, camera rarely worked, the music player also rarely worked properly, and the whole phone just reeked of unfinished software...
The phone has long since died (corrupted itself beyond repair), and I'm unsure how the new Firefox OS works (the simulator doesn't simulate the device itself, so it's not a good way to test the OS) but if it's the same... Nope.
