There's the Geeksphone Peak+ (http://shop.geeksphone.com/en/phones/8-peak.html), which is a Firefox OS phone with decent specs. Unfortunately, I can't find any real info or reviews on it.

Having had the Huawei G300, with it's abysmal non-accelerated update, I could not recommend them.

I've replaced that with a firefox phone after it died (some sort of bug where using contacts would crash it - hey, it was still OK as a tablet).

Next phone I torture myself with will hopefully be a Jolla.

TLDR - you get what you pay for.

Which is far worse if you buy a ZTE open. I had a ZTE blade , no update to ICS , and the display lasted 2 month. You definetly get what you pay for but ZTE phones are crap.

This is kind of true ( I have the zte open ).

Otoh the g300 was a choice between an ancient version of android or a modern one that was very sluggish.

The g300 completely died in the end, along the way it killed an sd card before completely giving up.

Im not buying huawei again.. The zte im typing this on was a third of the price and although frustrating at times, its to be expected as its quite early days.
