Amazon has just announced the new Amazon phone called the Amazon Fire Phone now available for pre-order at www.amazon.com.
The first smartphone designed by Amazon, features a Dynamic Perspective and Firefly
Dynamic Perspective uses a custom-designed sensor system that responds to the way you hold, view, and move the phone allowing one-handed navigation and gestures like auto-scroll—read long web pages and books without touching the screen.
Firefly is a new technology that quickly recognizes printed web and email addresses, phone numbers, QR and bar codes, artwork, movies, music, and millions of products – works by pressing and holding the Firefly button.
Other extras include a 13MP camera with optical image stabilization, 1080p HD video, a 2.2 GHz quad-core processor and 2GB of RAM for fast, a 4.7″ HD display, dual stereo speakers, and Dolby Digital audio.
Fire is available exclusively on AT&T but you can buy without a service plan www.amazon.com and ship it via a 3rd party shipping company
Do note that any bundles extras such as Amazon Prime, unlimited streaming of movies and TV shows with Prime Instant Video, unlimited, ad-free streaming and downloading of over a million songs and hundreds of playlists, and over 500,000 books to borrow from the Kindle Owners’ Lending Library may not work with a Malaysia IP address
