No, Facebook isn’t making a modular smartphone – TechSpot
Facebooks first foray into the smartphone industry wasnt exactly a resounding success. Launched in early 2013, the HTC First dubbed by many as the Facebook Phone was discontinued after just a month or so on the market due to poor sales and classified as one of the biggest tech failures of the year.
The Facebook Phone was a half-assed effort at best. Rather than commit to developing its own hardware or even a custom operating system, the social networks only real contribution to the device was adding a layer atop Android that made it easier to access its various services.
A recently published patent application has some in the media thinking Facebook may be preparing its sophomore effort. I disagree.
