Amazon Fire Phone unveiled
- darrelld 12y agoSo far to me it just seems like another smart phone with nice specs. The big Firefly feature doesn't seem to be a ground breaking change on how smart phones are used. Maybe I'm not the target market? EDIT: Tangle free earbuds included? This is the future, I'm sold!
- rb2k_ 12y agoUnlimited photo storage is kinda nice. I think it's mostly about the services, not the phone itself necessarily.
- darrelld 12y agoI agree about the photo storage and the services, but I don't know that it's enough for me to jump ship to an Amazon phone. As a Android user I love Amazon Prime, but I'm perfectly happy with opening a web browser to order, and using a console to stream videos. For those who aren't already embedded deep into Android or Apple I wonder if the services will have enough of a pull?
- dang 12y agoThere is another discussion at https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=7911165 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=7911165, so I guess we'll bury this one as a dupe. The best url for this story isn't obvious. Suggestions are welcome.
