XFone

What's our secret? Great people.

With XFone you get all the benefits of open source, backed by a professional software company that knows what they are doing.

XFone's highly skilled team is always available to answer any questions you may have. We pride ourselves on providing world-class support. Our Profesional Services division offers tailor-made solutions to businesses of all sizes across any industry. Whether you are a small company or a multinational organization we are here to provide time and cost savings while adding value to your business processes.

XFone solves real business problems. It has an improved version of Ubuntu Touch and it’s optimized for business. XFone technologies have integrated kernel-level updates allowing full control of the hardware thereby bypassing any bugs related to Android. These make docker and yacht run. This is proprietary to XFone Technologies giving you a fully functioning Linux phone.

XFone gives you access to a full suite of Professional Services for mobile Linux. Think of our Professional Services as the place you go when you really need a customized solution. Reach out to our team and we will develop a plan that will exceed your expectations whatever your budget may be. Other Linux phones are made by hardware manufacturers. Hardware companies do not do business software. Not like we do. XFone Technologies is a resource you can depend on for your business. If we can’t solve it, it's Free. XFone is proud to offer SageTea Software. No other Linux Phone has this.

If you are used to free software, the operating system on the XFone is open source. You can do what you want to do with it. Compare this with other Linux Phones. You won’t find it.

We include low code, warranty, cloud, and backup.

What makes XFone different?

Open Source Software

Open Source software is free – yes, but, no one is in charge exactly. When it comes to business, open source doesn’t always have everything you need and when you need it. Sometimes there are gaps in open source which aren’t guaranteed to be fixed. Until XFone came along, linux phone users were left with the only option of just posting a plea for help on user forums and hoping for an answer. The right answer.

That would be acceptable if you are doing a science project or tinkering. If you are a business professional – unacceptable. At XFone Mobile, we know that just isn’t good enough when it comes to business. To solve that, we add Professional Services and business software.

This makes XFone into a full business solution that works like a mobile computer. This is its Edge.

For a better world

E-Waste

The mobile phone industry is a major contributor to e-waste. This is a worldwide problem. In Canada , there are 3.2 old unused cellphones in every household. We made XFone Go Green.

XFone uses Certified Pre Owned hardware. We start with a standard Pixel 3A chassis. Then it gets interesting. We add our improved Halium image. This makes the product and hardware last much longer. It is now a green technology. Every new XFone prevents a CPO phone from becoming e-waste. Instead, we add Linux and fresh business software. The phone is reborn as a brand new product – with higher performance than before. Made for business. Made for Linux.

A really good phone, regardless of the operating system, must have everything.

We test and certify selected Android apps for XFone. XFone has a SIM. XFone makes phone calls. No credit card needed for phone plans. Or bring your own SIM.

We are not stopping with just Docker support.

Add all this up and you see the benefit of choosing XFone. We are a software company that makes phones. More than just a manufacturer. XFone has the Edge over all other Linux Phones. It’s green. It works.

Our values

The Edge of Liberty

Edge. The outside limit of an object, area, or surface; a place or part farthest away from the centre of something. Like the outside limit one finds in themselves, in that place among the competition, in that moment in history where the pinnacle is reached.

 

It’s the proverbial final turn of the race, where all the training, hard work, equipment, testing – all come together for someone. The Edge is that special place where all that one has now meets the track.

In that moment, they say that one can find their Edge. It’s that special compliment given only to those who have gone to their outside limit, done the hard work, and now use their Edge to win.

 

Edges have been used through history to make heroes, liberate from slavery and bring freedom. We work on them in the night before battle. Edges are what we make and sharpen.

 

As we picture our foe.

 

We make Edges through instinct, driven by a message from our ancestors who tell us – be ready for battle. Have something better. Special. Make it ready. Use it well.

 

This is why we work through the night. We take all our fears, desires and talents, and focus them into sharp Edges. Refining them as the inevitable dawn approaches.

 

We make Edges because we know that when the time comes, having the Edge can make the difference between winning and losing.

 

The Edge is about willing to be different, and in just the right way – when the moment of competition comes.

 

And so, we are not afraid of standing out from the others. We actually strive for that.

 

During serious competition, having just the same as your opponent gives you no advantage.

 

Being just the same is no use when one is outnumbered, outgunned and in a weak position. When our customers are like this, we consider it the greatest honour to provide them with an Edge.

 

It’s in those moments where the time spent on refining their unique Edge, customizing it – leads them to winning. Leads to liberation. That quality of mind they’ll only get by overcoming and winning. Our Edges are made for this kind of person.

 

This is why we make products that are different. We are giving them that Edge, customized. To give them the advantage.

 

The Edge of Liberty. It’s in everything we do. It’s how we do it.
