    For US residents this is an AT&T exclusive :(

    From what we know right now,
    - Aluminium body
    - 4.7" HD Display
    - 2 GB RAM
    - Dedicated Camera button
    - 13 MP with OIS sensor
    - "Dynamic Perspective" what you're viewing will move with you.
    - Unlimited cloud storage for photos
    - Firefly feature which can detect items or sounds and allow you to buy them from Amazon. It goes a step further and you can take a picture of your food and it will recognize what the contents are. Right now, they have one hundred million items it can find.

    $199 with a two-year contract, or $27 per month on Next. This is for 32GB.
    July 25th. Includes 12 months of Amazon prime.

    What do you guys think?

    I knew it was only a matter of time before Amazon released a phone. I will stick with my phone, but I'm sure that there are others would give the phone a chance. I'm not sure why Amazon chose AT&T network. I don't know anyone who is happy with them.
