It seems that Facebook will announce its own smartphone this week, one that will allegedly run a new Android UI, which will be named Facebook Home.
The name of the users interface comes from two different sources, according to which Facebook Home is going to be the appellation of the new Android UI. According to 9to5 Google, Facebook has already sent invitations to the press members for its media event, invitations which read “Come See Our New Home on Android”. At first glance, one might think that the company will unveil a new Facebook application experience for Android OS, but it seems that Facebook Home is the actual name of the product.
Facebook Home is suggested by Twitter tipster @evleaks, as well. He says that the current version of the Facebook app for Android OS has to be updated in order to support Facebook Home. The company will hold a media event, which will take place on April 4. We will be right here to cover it for you.
