Amazon Fire Phone

70 Engadget Score

A dependable product that doesn't really stand out from the competition.

Engadget Review

Amazon's debut phone isn't bad, per se, but there's little incentive for anyone to switch carriers or platforms to buy it. Its unique features don't provide enough utility, and come at the expense of both battery life and performance.
