Quite a lot of people have predicted and been waiting for the time when Facebook comes out with its own hardware. Now, we've got the first renders of the Facebook Phone that may be announced tomorrow in Facebook's Official event. Rather than the HTC Myst that some thought it would be called it is now going by the name HTC First. Tech specs for the HTC First include the following:

  • Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 Plus MSM8960 processor
  • 1GB RAM
  • 5MP Rear camera + 1.6MP Front camera
  • 4.3-inch screen (720p HD resolution)


As you can see, the hardware is nowhere as impressive as what was first expected. However, when you think about it, Facebook has always been more about its software. This was further confirmed by leaked APKs of the Facebook Home screen launcher with everything more or less Facebook themed. We'll find out if everything is true tomorrow anyway but do stay tuned as we'll keep you posted of any new developments.
