裸眼3D开路,亚马逊第一款智能手机“Fire Phone”正式面市
手机还拥有一项Mayday服务,能够提供技术支持,让用户与客服人员进行视频通话。 除了发布新产品,让人们对即将出现的手机有一定了解,亚马逊还就其应用商店增加的品种进行了宣传。亚马逊在本周早些时候表示,在过去一年之中,亚马逊商店的应用种类达到了之前的三倍,即24万种。这样的大幅进步令人印象深刻,不过它的应用数量仍然只有苹果(Apple)应用商店的五分之一。亚马逊在周三还与黑莓(Blackberry)达成了授权协议,让所有应用都能够在今年秋天发布的一系列黑莓手持设备中得以使用。 唯一对亚马逊和美国电话电报公司的合作高兴不起来的人是运营商T-Mobile公司的首席执行官约翰•莱杰尔。他在这款产品发布的前一天就针对它发表了一条碎碎念的Twitter消息。莱杰尔反对独家合作,他在Twitter上说:“独家合作对消费者而言糟糕透顶,”同时他还把亚马逊的这款新产品比作Facebook与HTC去年合作推出、但却遭遇惨败的那款智能手机。(财富中文网) 译者:严匡正 |
The phone also includes Mayday, a tech support feature that connects users via video stream to support staff. In addition to teasing the release of its new product with vague hints at what was to come, Amazon has been touting the increased selection in its Amazon Appstore. Amazon said earlier this week that it has nearly tripled its apps selection in the past year, to 240,000, a number that signals impressive growth, but which is still about one-fifth of Apple’s app offerings. Amazon also reached a licensing deal with Blackberry on Wednesday to make all of its apps available on the latter’s new line of handheld devices set to launch this fall. One person who isn’t too excited about the partnership between Amazon and AT&T is T-Mobile CEO John Legere, who unleashed a Twitter rant against the new product a day before it was even announced. Legere came out against the exclusive partnership, tweeting that “Exclusivity sucks for customers,” while comparing the new Amazon device to the failed Facebook-HTC smartphone that flopped last year. |
