Amazon Fire Phone now just $200 without contract
July 24, 2025
Amazon has made some edits to the price of theirFire Phone, bringing theunlocked 32GB GSM modeldown to $199. That is not a contract price either.
This is a great, and interesting, shift for big A to make. On one hand, we have a device that is decently equipped, but has been all but laughed off for its overall underwhelming experience. However, at just $200, this phone is now inMoto Gprice competition. This may make a huge difference in sales, as theFire Phonecompares to the Moto G with twice as much RAM, at 2GB, 5 more MP in the camera, at 13MP and the more powerful Snapdragon 800 SoC, versus the Snapdragon 400 in the Moto G.
The general opinion at launch of theAmazon Fire Phonewas that one could pick up a similarly spec’dNexus 5, but with the pure Google Android experience, for as much as $100 less than Amazon’s initial offering of $450. Although the parallax feature of the entireFire OS, called Dynamic Perspective, was very cool for a brief moment, the remaining perks, likeFireflyandMaydaywere all but lost or unnecessary for most seasoned Android users.
Perhaps the best perk with theAmazon Fire Phoneis one that is made even sweeter with this new price tag. Purchasing the Fire Phone makes you eligible for one free year ofAmazon Prime. The Prime service offers up Amazon’s impressive library of video, music and book titles, not to mention free shipping on all purchases, for the going rate of $99 per year.
