Amazon Fire Phone Hardware-Software Review
Amazon Fire phone's hardware is just as good as that of their competitor Smartphones though, but analysts speculate that it's not a very good idea to price it equally with other high-end phones available in the market.
It's 4.7 inches in size and it features a 3D imaging and gesture control technique, which is considered a ground-breaking technology.

Will the Amazon ''Fire'' burn?
It appears that the phone is set to hook even more investors. Amazon's stock price shot up instantly the moment it was launched to almost 9%, which represented a $334.38 by close of last week's trade.
But marketing analyst, Ryan Huang, says Amazon will need to entice a portion of its customers to get it in order for the ''Fire'' to pick up. The smartphone has already acquired a new name, with others calling it a shopping device instead of Fire Phone. It comes with a feature known as ''Firefly'', which automatically identifies products using the camera of the phone before adding them into users Amazon account.
Should loyal customers connect with the device, then there's a guarantee that the sale of videos, music and other items will shoot. Now, it's Amazon biggest worry on how they are going to convince customers to switch to AT&T from other mobile networks. AT&T is the phone's exclusive carrier.
Out of the 250million active amazon customers, 3/4 of that number comprises of customers who have really good smartphones that don't operate on AT&T network. They'll need to do a little bit of pushing, say offer more than just 1 year of free Amazon premium services. These are challenges that Apple might take advantage of to overthrow the Fire Phone in the near future--only time will tell. It's also a nfc readers support device.
Is Amazon’s Fire Phone a true iPhone Killer?

It's definitely going to impact on Apple's franchise. You can expect something better and unique introductions by Apple as compare to what Fire Phone is currently offering.
However, other industry players speculate that the Fire phone will not have a significant impact on Apple. For instance, in 2011, Kindle Fire tried to rock the market with others calling it the “iPad Killer”. Apple didn't feel any impact at all. And most so, we're waiting for the iPhone 6, which is also expected to steal the show as soon as it arrives.
