See-through phones were quite cool back in the 90s. Now LG is bringing it back with its first Firefox OS smart phone that’s announced with Japan’s KDDI network.
At first glance, the Fx0 stands out with its transparent shell and apparently it was designed deliberately to symbolise Mozilla’s commitment to open source. While it looks cool with a golden colour base, the device is quite a mid-tier affair.
It gets a 4.7″ display that pushes 1280×720 pixels resolution and it runs on a Quad-Core Snapdragon 400 processor with 1.5GB of RAM. There’s a decent 16GB of storage that’s expandable and it comes with a 8MP camera and 4G LTE connectivity. The LG Fx0 is currently sold only in Japan at about US$410. So far there’s no word of them releasing the device internationally.
Check out the hands-on video and official images of the LG Fx0 after the break.
