Alcatel dominates Firefox OS market with a share of 65%, GeeksPhone insignificant

Long-term followers of the mobile market tend to see Alcatel as a company which is all talk, but tends to ship relatively little. In Firefox OS, this can not be farther from the truth – an analysis of user behavior shows that the Chinese company accounts for more than 65% of users.

Tamoggemon Holding k.s. offers an immensely powerful scientific calculator which provides Firefox OS users features not seen in any other product. This is achieved via a client-server infrastructure which connects the cell phones to a group of Raspberry Pi computers.

In specific, the data obtained from analyzing usership looks as following:

Alcatel OneTouch 4012 - 67,86%
ZTE Open - 22,11%
LG D300 - 10,01%

It is clear that ZTE's policy of intentionally limiting the amount of ZTE Open sales has backfired on the vendor. LG has a market share of 10% - it remains but a question of time when the platform will be discontinued.


More interestingly, GeeksPhone handsets have failed to amount to a significant level of traffic. This clearly shows that most developers don’t use their Firefox OS handset as primary phone.
