The Amazon Fire Phone Is Here!

Finally, the long-rumored and hotly anticipated Amazon Fire Phone has been announced, and is now available for pre-order in both an AT&T contract version and an unlocked version. There’s a lot to say about this phone, but here are the highlights:

– $199 in the 32GB version, $299 for the 64GB version when paired with an AT&T 2-year contract

– $649 and up for the non-AT&T version

– For a limited time, comes bundled with 1 free year of Amazon Prime, extends Prime subscription for a year for existing Prime members (that’s a $99 value!)

– 4.7″ Gorilla glass (that means extra-tough) touch display with four movement-tracking cameras, all with infrared capability to “see” in the dark, built to deliver a 3D viewing experience; the demo video on this was amazing

– Built-in Firefly recognition app that can “hear” music, “see” images, “read” text or barcodes in the real world and instantly connect users to information and purchase options online

– Built-in Kindle reader with Whispersync audio immersion feature (when you own both the Kindle and audiobook versions for a given book); auto-scroll through ‘pages’ of a book with a simple screen tilt, no touch required

– Built-in Amazon MP3 / Prime Music app, also employs touch-free gesture/tilt controls

– Unlimited Cloud storage for photos

That’s really just the tip of the iceberg on this truly innovative new smart phone that’s been four years in development.
