One company is soon going to create a major upset in the smartphone market – and they don’t sell phones yet?

Amazon sells tablets, marketed under its Kindle brand. They sell large volumes of these and make compelling hardware too. Amazon have one of the best media online stores for books, music, video and now a decent app market place store.

So in 2014 it should come as no surprise when Amazon launches it’s own range of smartphones that will play havoc with other companies business models. This will hurt people like Apple who actually like to make money from their hardware sales.

It will be interesting to see how 2014 pans out as their will surely be winners and some losers.

So what are your predictions ?

Rumours for Amazon’s entry into the smartphone race continue

Android, Tech News

The latest rumours suggest Amazon has 2 phones in the pipeline. A budget and a top flight offering. Both will offer easy access to all of Amazon’s services and products. The top flight phone is rumoured to use a 3D interface. Lets hope motion sickness is not an issue with this sort of display.

The key aspect of these devices is the pricing. Will amazon offer these at cost and once again disrupt the smartphone market as it has with the Kindle Fire tablets.

I still perceive Amazon as the biggest threat to all smartphone/tablet manufacturers. It already has the eco system and the largest most diverse shopping offering.
