The editors liked

  • Firefly is good at what it does. Not perfect
  • But good. Whether or not you should be or need to be impulse buying everything you see from Amazon
  • Firefly helps you do it
  • So long as physical things you are trying to buy generally include some sort of pack
  • Firefly and Mayday are useful tools
  • Amazon Prime
  • Unlimited cloud storage for photos included.

The editors didn't like

  • Fire OS is fine
  • But as an operating system for your primary mobile device
  • It is notably inferior to Android
  • IOS
  • Or even Windows Phone 8.1. The lack of Google apps is a big handicap
  • And the lack of robust alternatives (Windows Phone at least has all t
  • Gimmicky motion tracking
  • Occasionally awkward UI design
  • Pricey for the specs

  • A cynical, overpriced phone that's full of adverts and is clunky and difficult to use in almost every way...

  • Abstract:  After my initial inspection and configuring the phone settings according to my routine desires. I now post my review specifically focusing on build quality, application, performance, drawbacks and value for money rather than unjustly comparing the feature...

  • If it were retailing for nearer £150 SIM-free, the Fire Phone wouldn't be a bad budget phone – viewed in that context, the combination of decent performance and an excellent screen would make its flaws far easier to forgive.This isn't a budget phone, howe...

  • Decent battery life, above-average camera
  • Bulky design, disappointing screen, front-facing camera set-up is ugly and unnecessary, no microSD slot
  • So, should you buy the Amazon Fire Phone? If you haven't already guessed, probably not.While Amazon's debut smartphone has some redeeming features - such as its above-average 13MP camera and decent battery life - it's let down by the clunky design, disappointing...

  • As a stand-alone product the Fire Phone doesn't quite cut the mustard. This is mainly because the hardware and the price don't match and the absence of Google's Play Store means that you'll have to do without some of the apps that a lot of people take for...

  • Abstract:  In our Amazon Fire Phone vs iPhone 6 comparison we find a smartphone that is locked into an expensive ecosystem with the express purpose of generating revenue for the parent company. And the Fire Phone is similar. We tested both the Amazon Fire Phone and...

  • Tied into Amazon's strong ecosystem; Respectable camera
  • Confusing interface; Dynamic Perspective feels gimmicky; High price; No core Google apps
  • The Amazon Fire Phone stands out from the Android competition, but not in a positive way. It doesn't offer enough for power users and is going to present a learning curve for tech novices also....

  • 3Dstyle dynamic perspective is a wonder to look at, Sleek allblack design, Plenty of unique features
  • Lack of Google Play apps, Average rearfacing camera, Ergonomic stumbling blocks
  • Despite offering plenty of unique features, the Amazon Fire Phone lacks the apps and general usability of its rivals. Not to mention the fact that both Android and iOS users will have to adapt to the Amazon retail ecosystem....

  • Decent screen, Impressive snapper, Perfect for serious Amazon users
  • Unfriendly software, Major selling point is just a visual gimmick, Uninspiring design
  • The Fire Phone has a number of unusual features that really make it stand out from the crowd, but it is weighty, chunky and suffers from bland design. Its unique features are little more than gimmicks. If you’ve got £400 to spend on a phone, there...

  • Good quality screen, Impressive camera, Ideal for heavy Amazon users
  • Unintuitive software, Major feature is a visual gimmick, Bland design
  • First off, Amazon should be applauded for trying something different with the Fire Phone. It has a host of truly unique features which make the handset stand out from a crowded market if very similar devices. But unfortunately this where the praise mostl...
