Facebook has sent out press invitations to an event set to be held on Thursday, April 4th at its Menlo Park HQ in California, as well as although it would appear from the invite as though the topic of conversation will be Android-related, all kind of theories are already being used as to what mark Zuckerberg’s business has up its sleeve. It may well just be that the social media network has overhauled the Android app, bringing a series of new as well as cutting-edge features. however with previous motions as well as rumors suggesting the business is keen to release a new round of Facebook-branded smartphones or maybe its own, Facebook-centric OS based on Google’s ecosystem, the prospective for things to get truly fascinating is maybe higher than usual.
The last event Facebook held at its California headquarters saw the showcasing of the new-look news Feed at the begin of this month. however while the site as well as the brand continues to go from stamina to strength, the company’s mobile ambitions are rather a distance from being fulfilled. The variety – as well as high quality – of mobile apps has definitely gotten a excellent offer stronger in the past year or so, however having had lots of of its services (check-ins) as well as attempted, so-called ‘Facebook Phones’ knocked back by consumers, Zuck definitely has lots of development to make within the mobile arena.
Indeed, it was only earlier this month that a leak purported to expose the specs of the HTC ‘Myst’, a handset mainly touted to be a second-gen Facebook device. The degree to which the Facebook fingerprint would manifest in that or any type of gadget is a matter only of speculation, however with the mid-range handset featuring a fairly solid repertoire of hardware, maybe Facebook is prepared to execute plan B in the mobile-flogging game.
The invitation itself is entitled “come as well as see our new house on Android”, as well as with numerous millions of individuals on Android accounting for a big chunk of the 600 million monthly active individuals of Facebook, whatever is to be exposed might have huge implications on the company’s mobile progress.
