Amazon Fire Phone review | The Verge

Final paragraph from a detailed Fire Phone review; also see Amazon Fire phone merely lukewarm (Boston Globe) and Amazon Fire Phone Review: Full of Gimmicks, Lacking Basics (WSJ)

"Amazon’s consumption-first approach works on tablets, for watching and reading and shopping. But tablets are for fun. Smartphones are for work, for life. They’re not toys, they’re tools. Amazon doesn’t understand that, and the Fire Phone doesn’t reflect it. Amazon’s first smartphone is a series of interesting ideas in a package that is somehow much less than the sum of its parts."
