Will Mark Zuckerberg Really Launch The Facebook Phone?

Mark Zuckerberg's has been saying it all around: There's no Facebook phone.

Though this current year, are going to be lots of smartphones similar to HTC's ChaCha and also Salsa, which focus on Facebook together with dedicated buttons to the social networking service.

Zuckerberg, Facebook's inventor and moreover chief executive, responded to the Facebook phone program in a recorded video record, released during HTC's press seminar in the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona.

"A lot's been reported in regards to single Facebook phone," he was quoted saying, "but this year you may expect to determine a wide selection of cell phones with incredibly bigger social integration than anything we've seen up to now."

HTC's smartphones are still Android-based, with similar Sense interface that presents itself in handsets such as the Droid Incredible together with Evo 4G. They just go a little deeper with Facebook integration caused by that dedicated button. Pressing it may take you without delay to the social network, as well as reckoning on perspective, will probably do precise pursuits like posting an image or even song. The ChaCha plus Salsa as well pull in status updates as well as new pics when calling an associate, and also prompt customers of future birthday celebrations.

British smartphone creator INQ, that's owned by HTC, is additionally making a Facebook-integrated phone referred to as the Cloud Touch. This smartphone is Android-based, nevertheless the overall interface is intended all around Facebook facets, for example events, notification as well as Places. The INQ Cloud Touch is striking the United Kingdom in April, and also the USA in the Fall.

While not any of such products are Facebook-branded mobile phones, per se, the association would seem strong enough that Facebook may well not need its very own operating system or possibly top quality phone. On the other hand, the social network can step by step dominate functions of present programs -- such as contacts, calendars, messages and location-based check-ins -- with the intention that other functions end up unnecessary. It's a lot more a changeover to the reasoning of a Facebook phone compared to a single gadget, which changeover is going on at this moment.
