Japanese mobile operator [KDDI](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/AI-Startup-Support-Program) recently unveiled its transparent Firefox Smartphone model, the FxO. The long-awaited mobile device is designed by Tokujin Yoshioka and features see-through casing that reveals the phone's interior elements.

From its exposed battery to its Firefox OS signage, this device is displayed in a gold tone and marries style with function. The transparent Firefox Smartphone is manufactured by [LG](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/signature-oled-t-smart-tv) and runs on the Firefox OS 2.0 operating system. Moreover, it features HD graphics and is equipped with Framin software that allows users to customize their lock screen in a variety of ways.

The mobile device is crafted out of clear polycarbonate materials and is both lightweight and durable. In addition to carrying the mobile device, KDDI also sells a number of other accessories that are compatible with the product.
