after watching the Fire HDX 7've bought for the special price of 99 in December and am very fond of this tablet in terms of performance, display, sound and battery, I have now acquired the Firephon for 149. From the performance and the display is also excellent. Sound and battery are not quite as good. The whine of many users over the missing AppStore Google I can not understand, because you can browse the Appstore before buying on Amazon. Anyone who thinks that's not cope, it should not buy. Design and weight of the phones you can also look at before. This is a matter of taste, for which there can be no general rating. But there are some things that I miss, and you can not see right away: - The camera app can not change the aspect ratio of 4: 3 and no to the resolution. In a display of 16: 9 is a nogo. For predominant playback on 16: 9 -Fernsehern need this format, but no resolution of 13 million pixels. One can this problem by installing Camera Apps (CameraMX example) resolve, but the Firely button then accesses remains on the pre-installed camera app to. - For photos and videos can be folder form only through the cloud, very awkward! - Frequently used web pages can not be added as an icon on the home page. A not so nice alternative are bookmarks - When the contacts are no groups can form (family, friends, etc.), but only a VIP group. - The keyboard is in portrait mode too tiny - The carousel has a lot to big icons that you can not remove all at the same time - A radio is not available, but in areas without power, sometimes very well if available - USB OTG would also be very nice Despite this lack of things it's a good phone for the price and highly recommended for people who are able to unlearn something and not always complain that it's not like Apple or Android.
