Ah, the lovely rumors are at it once again in the tech world regarding a “Facebook phone”. City A.M. reported that HTC would unveil two Facebook branded phones next month at Mobile World Congress, and this is what Facebook had to say.
This is really just another example of a manufacturer who has taken our public APIs (application programing interfaces) and integrated them into their device in an interesting way,” said Dan Rose, head of business development at Facebook.
The rumors around there being something more to this HTC device are overblown,” Rose told journalists at a company event in London. Asked whether the device would be Facebook-branded, he answered: “No.”
Although we may not see a full branded Facebook phone, I am sure we will see a heavily optimized device coming in the near future with huge Facebook integration.
What do you think? Do you think there will be a Facebook phone, or a heavily optimized device for Facebook? Let us know in the comments below.
