Description	The HTC First is an Android smartphone released by HTC on April 12, 2013. It was unveiled on April 4, 2013 as part of a press event held by Facebookserving as a successor to a pair of Facebook-oriented devices HTC released in 2011, it is the first Android device to be pre-loaded with Facebook's own user interface layer, Facebook Home in lieu of HTC's own Sense.While considered compelling by critics for a mid-range phone due to its display quality and its optional use of stock Android beneath the default Facebook Home overlay, the HTC First was panned by critics for its poor camera and lack of removable storage, and was also affected by the similarly underwhelming reception faced by the Facebook Home software. AT&T, the exclusive U.S. carrier of the First, only reportedly sold over 15,000 units of the device, while both ReadWrite and Time named it among the biggest failures in the technology industry for 2013.
