Nobody wants Windows Phone. It's not about camera pixels, number of CPU cores, screen size or resolution. Windows Phone is toxic to Nokia and all other manufacturers, but at least they have Android to fall back.

My newest phone is a Nexus 4. I could have gotten an iPhone or a Lumia for similar prices, but I hate Android the least and i am hoping either Firefox or Ubuntu will be released for it. If thr only selling point of the Lumia 1020 is a camera, I'm not buying it.

Just coming back from UK and France. Iphone dominant by far. Samsung here and there and a sprinkle of windows and S40 phones. Apple rules in France and UK. Not sure what Samsung includes in their smartphone line up, but iphone 4/4s are as ubiquitous as wearing shoes

iPhone 5's current UK market share is around 15%, iPhone 4S around 7.5%. I think we are lagging behind other advanced European markets in our rate of migration to Android (possibly due to longer contracts?) but most people I know who formerly had iPhones have now upgraded to an Android device of some form.

It's not only for low end, that's Mozilla's initial target but not the limit of their ambitions. Rumour has it Sony are considering a FxOS powered beast.

I doubt sony planning to release anything for firefox since it's so basic. In fact, Sailfish, tizen and ubuntu are all low-and OS since they lacking basic functionality. They are start ups. Let's see if they are alive in 3 years time, if so the big dragons might be attracted. Not now.
