Amazon launches Fire Phone
The first smartphone designed by Amazon is officially out in the wild. Amazon unveiled their new mobile device called Fire Phone yesterday in Seattle. New addition to Amazon's mobile devices The Fire Phone is the latest in a line of "Fire" tablets and streaming devices. Being out in the wild is one thing. Standing-out in an arguably saturated market dominated by Apple and Samsung is a whole different matter. The Fire Phone naturally is intended to work with Amazon's various services and online commerce out of the box. For example, at a press of a button, you can let the Fire Phone recognize a physical object such as a can of Coke, or a piece of art such as a song or a picture. Once the phone recognizes the object, you can directly look for and purchase it on Amazon.com. This unique feature is aptly called " Firefly " and frankly it reminds me of Shazam's big brother. :) Fire Phone tech specs and prices The Fire Phone features a 4.7
