Question 2
Amazon could launch a smartphone this year that costs “a fraction” of what Apple charges for its iPhone, a new report says. Amir Efrati at The Information spills details from an allegedly leaked internal Amazon document. The paperwork is said to have been produced by a potential partner and two people who were involved in discussions with Amazon. According to Efrati, the document discussed strategies for penetrating smartphone markets in China, Europe and the United States. Earlier discussions also mentioned Latin America as a possibility. The phone, which has been referred to as “Project Aria,” is likely to go on sale this year, according to Efrati. There’s no specific price, but he says Amazon is “determined” to “keep the phone at a small fraction of the iPhone’s $550-and-up price tag.” If Amazon does launch a smartphone this year, it’s unclear if it will fall under the company’s own brand or if it will work with a partner.
