If it wasn’t already clear that Amazon’s got a lot of unwanted Fire Phones to sell, the company just made it more obvious.
In its latest effort to move product, Amazon is now offering the Fire Phone for $199 unlocked. Like before, Amazon is including a year of free Prime if you’ll just please, please buy its phone.

It’s a followup to September’s already-astounding price drop to 99 cents with a two year contract, or $449 off contract. Originally, the Amazon Fire Phone sold for $199 with a two-year contract or $649 off contract.
Amazon’s earnings have not been so hot this year, compelling the company to take a $170 million writedown thanks mainly to the disastrous Fire Phone launch, according to the company’s third quarterly earnings report.
Now Amazon is down to the holiday season in order to recap its losses. In advance of Black Friday, Amazon has been offering its “Lightning Deals” all week long. Maybe you can use some of those discounts and buy a decent phone in Amazon’s electronics section.
