Personally, I wouldn't even consider an Amazon "smart" device until it was at least gen 2. From what I understand, hey made big strides between the first and second gen Kindle Fire tablets.
That being said, currently there's no real differentiator for this phone. Maybe they'll eventually do unlimited bandwidth deals for Prime video / music content? (or do they already have that?)
- taeric 12y agoI can definitely agree that the gen 1 kindle fire left a lot to be desired. The latest offerings are quite nice, though. And, lets be honest, it isn't like the earlier versions of any android device are worth writing home about. Finally moved from a moto droidish era phone up to the moto g. It is truly impressive how far they have come.
- 72deluxe 12y agoI wonder if it is Android itself that has made strides? I have been using it since the G1 and 2.3 felt different to 1.6, but the real change for me came with 4.0 (I had 3 on my Xoom but it felt awkward). I am not sure what whizz-bang features they have been adding in recently, as everything post 4.1 looks different for different's sake to me; more investigation likely required. Do you think the hardware has got better with the Motorola, or just the software and general less clunkiness?
- taeric 12y agoHard to say, honestly. I do know the moto g is impressive. Though, I have to confess I actually prefer the kindle software.
- fixedd 12y agoOur purchase of the first-gen Kindle Fires convinced my wife and myself not to buy any further iterations. There are 9 tablets in our house... guess which two haven't been powered on in the past year.
