The Amazon Fire Smartphone goes on sale today and, of course, the sales figures will not be in for awhile. What is in are the reviews of the device and although most reviewers applaud some of the innovations, the phone may be a dud.
Adding to Amazon’s problems is a second-quarter loss wider than even the direst expectations, as the company suffers from ambitious introductions of new products and services.
Back to the Fire Phone… the phone gets very hot. That’s not why they called it the Fire but the name fits! These other negatives outweigh the ambitious design: High price, average performance (the processor struggles to keep up) and shorter battery life than expected. The major negative? The Fire uses a version of Android designed to block the “Google Play” App Store. Given the limited offerings from the Amazon App Store, this may turn off many potential buyers. Without having the eco system of Apple and mainstream Android, this phone may be a huge disappointment.
For many of these reasons Mobile Generated News® decided to design our App for the Apple iOS first because of Apple’s high standards, consistency and continuity.
Given it’s limitations, would you buy an Amazon Fire Smartphone?
