The Firefox OS 'Fx0' is Designed by Tokujin Yoshioka for KDDI

— December 23, 2014 — Tech
Firefox OS has finally released a stunning smartphone that could give Apple and Samsung a run for their money, at least when based solely on aesthetics. Although some people will be transfixed by the use of a transparent body, others will simply love the slim dimensions, golden surface and large display area. The Firefox OS phone, which is dubbed Fx0, owes much of its pretty nature to noted Japanese designer Tokujin Yoshioka.

Created for KDDI, the Firefox OS smartphone is set to be released in Japan in the beginning of the new year. The Verge reports, "The Fx0 marks a break from Mozilla's established strategy of making the cheapest possible phones and dares to stray into the middle of the smartphone price and spec range. At a cost of 50,000 yen (roughly $420), this smartphone is significantly more expensive than the average Firefox OS handset, but it seeks to justify that price rise with its good looks and greater capabilities."
Trend Themes
1. Transparent Body Smartphones - Opportunity for smartphone manufacturers to explore transparent body design, offering a visually unique and aesthetically pleasing option for consumers.
2. High-end Firefox OS Phones - Disruption potential in the budget smartphone market as Firefox OS moves into the middle price and spec range, attracting consumers with both advanced features and an appealing design.
3. Noted Designer Collaborations - Emerging trend of renowned designers partnering with smartphone manufacturers to create visually striking and cutting-edge devices that blend artistry with technology.
Industry Implications
1. Smartphone Manufacturing - Opportunity for smartphone manufacturers to differentiate themselves by incorporating transparent body designs and collaborating with renowned designers for their devices.
2. Mobile Technology - Disruptive innovation potential as high-end Firefox OS phones challenge the dominance of Apple and Samsung smartphones, offering a competitive alternative in the market.
3. Consumer Electronics Design - Growing demand for visually stunning and unique smartphone designs opens up opportunities for designers to create collaborations and push the boundaries of smartphone aesthetics.
