Looks good but O2 is the deal breaker for me even though you get 1 years free Amazon Prime membership

The reviews of this phone have not been the greatest. It's not really worth it whatever network it's on.

Odd timing of a release give today is the iPhone 6 announcement

Probably won't be the bargain the Moto G was?

£360 if bought on an O2 Refresh tariff.

It has plenty of competition at that price!

It does not 'look good' and being on o2 wouldn't be the deal breaker. Read the reviews before buying!

Read a review of it on a forum from someone who is a heavy Amazon user and they state that it's basically a mini Kindle Fire tablet. It's a decent enough smartphone but should really only be considered by people who buy just about everything from Amazon, are Prime members, and who have all their stuff stored in the Amazon cloud. Otherwise, there are far better options available.

It's telling that in the US Amazon have just cut the price of the phone on their cheapest 2-year contract deal with AT&T from $200 to $0.99!

The Fire phone was an epic failure in the US! Estimates indicate less than 100,000 sold. DO NOT touch it! Even at $0.99/cents on AT&T, no one is looking at it.
