Its first smartwatch isn't the only thing Alcatel is talking about today. TCL, the Chinese company behind the brand, has also unveiled an upcoming line of smartphones called Pixi 3 - to succeed the original Pixifrom 2013 and the Pixi 2 from last year, undoubtedly.

It comprises of four handsets, each with a different screen size : 3.5", 4", 4.5", and 5". The smallest of the bunch tops out at 3G connectivity, but the other three come with 4G LTE support built-in.

The most interesting tidbit in Alcatel's otherwise detail-starved press release is that the Pixi 3 devices will be OS-agnostic, unlike the Pixi and Pixi 2 which ran 'just' Android. The new phones will thus be "compatible with three major operating systems: Firefox, Windows, and Android", according to the official press release.

Unfortunately though, what Alcatel means by that isn't further explained. Since these are going to be affordable offerings, we do however assume we're more likely to see each size have three versions - one for each of the aforementioned operating systems. This seems more likely than loading all three operating systems on each handset.

Either way, we're surely going to find out more about the Pixi 3 smartphones next week during CES.

So if you have readed the text you would know that this phone will get 3 operating systems, i really hope that the consumer/user can switch through all the systems but i believe it more that you will have to choose a system before you would buy...

What do you guys think, and do you guys know more than i do?
Please tell me everything because i'm waiting on this phone to be fully revealed, switching between operating systems would be awesomeee!

Let's start off this discussion !
 
If, it means that users can swap operating systems, then it would be an interesting idea. However, I suspect it means that they'll sell it in different versions like they do in different colours, and so far I haven't seen an alcatel phone that I would touch with a 6 foot stylus.

The other thing thats (mildly) interesting is that its being sold as a Pixi, which presumably one of the names that they picked up with the Palm Trademark thing,

Alcatel phones are for me not a go as daily driver but having it as gadget would be amazing.
I had a Alcatel OT 995 and it was a worse handset, now i'm on Galaxy Note series and i enjoy them, i just would like to have the Pixi as gadget.

Now i'm waiting on the release on CES
