After the release of both ZTE Open and Alcatel One Touch Fire in Mexico via Telefonica, the carrier also made ZTE Open available in Peru and Alcatel One Touch Fire in Uruguay. For now, their target is to sell cheap mobile phones in pour countries, where people don’t afford Android and iOS powered devices.
Both Alcatel One Touch Fire and ZTE Open have similar hardware specs: Firefox v1.1, 1 GHz processor, 256 MB of RAM, 512 MB internal storage, and support for microSD cards and wireless. See these articles fo more information: Alcatel One Touch Fire + ZTE Open.
