Will Samsung Make Facebook Smartphone?

CEO of Facebook Mark Zuckerberg paid a short visit to South Korea. After a meeting with President Pak Kin Hyo, the founder of the largest social network in the world held talks with Vice-President of Samsung Lee Jay-yong and the Head of mobile department Dzh.K.Shinom.


According to industry observers, Zuckerberg was trying to persuade the leaders of Samsung to release a "Facebook-smartphone."

"Facebook is aspired to become the second Google. To do that end, Mark Zuckerberg turned to Samsung with a request for enhanced cooperation and the release of the smartphone user interface of Facebook", - the expert said, whose name was not disclosed.

In his opinion, the Samsung answer is unlikely to be positive, because the cooperation with Facebook will bring no real or symbolic benefits. Quite the contrary - Samsung does not want to help Facebook and "grow" a second Google, as the latter has become a serious contender for the Samsung mobile phone market, the expert said. As it is known, in 2012 Google acquired Motorola Mobility, and now the company is preparing to release a smartphone MotoX, which could become a major competitor of iPhone.

In addition, the issue of "Facebook-smartphone" can not strengthen the image of the brand Samsung. In general, such an alliance will not bring us any good, says the observer.
