Why trust Greenbot
When the Fire Phone from Amazon was first introduced, the initial price tag sent shockwaves through the wireless industry. Ever since, the device has seen price drops off-and-on.
Amazon is back at it again with another price drop for their first smartphone, with a limited time promotion that sees the device dropped to only $189.00. Normally the Fire Phone, in its unlocked form, goes for $449.00 from Amazon directly, so this marks a savings of $260.00. For that lower price tag, the Amazon Fire phone still features the 4.7-inch HD display, the same quad-core processor clocked at 2.2GHz, and the year’s length subscription to Amazon Prime for good measure. There’s also the 13-megapixel camera on the back, and proprietary features like Mayday, Firefly and Dynamic Perspective.
The Fire Phone is a capable device with a lot of Amazon’s custom software on there, but for a device that’s under the $200 mark, it’s certainly worth a second look. Do you plan on taking advantage of the deal?
