HTC First
HTC First is an Android smartphone introduced on April 4. What makes it unique is the pre-installation of Facebook Home, a deep customized app instead of prioritizing apps like other phone interfaces. By doing this, the app can provide a more personal experience to Facebook users. The HTC First smartphone with Facebook Home optimization will be sold via AT&T on April 12, priced at $99.99. Moreover, the Facebook Home app will also be available for specific phone models, like HTC One X, One X+ and the upcoming HTC One, as well as Samsung’s Galaxy S3, Galaxy Note II and new Galaxy S4.

Specs
There’s not much to say about HTC First’s hardware. It has a 4.3-inch display with 720 x 1280 pixels of resolution and 341ppi. Powered by a 1.4 GHz dual-core processor, the phone has 1 GB of RAM and 16 GB of built-in storage. Unfortunately the storage is non-expandable. For cameras, the HTC First has a 5MP rear one and a 1.2MP front one respectively, which are good enough for shooting daily life photos/videos and sharing them on Facebook.

Highlights
Two new features are brought by the Facebook Home app: Cover Feed and Chat Heads.

Cover Feed is what users see when they turn on the phone. It not only shows time and background but also displays photos and descriptions from Facebook friends. Updated statuses are shown on the upper side, so that users can easily scroll the screen to view photos, like them or leave comments.
