Samsung said No to Facebook Phone

Mark Zuckerberg is in South Korea to convince Samsung making a “Facebook Phone” running Facebook Home application on Android. But it looks like Samsung clearly denied the request from Facebook CEO.
HTC is the only company which released a Facebook phone this year and the phone sale was dismal. As a standalone application on Android play store, Facebook Home has very bad user reviews as well. There are also reports that AT&T which is the only carrier selling HTC Facebook Phone will also stop selling the first Facebook powered phone soon. In these circumstances Samsung’s refusing make a Facebook Phone is understandable.
