Google And Amazon Lock Horns In Plain Sight
The price of the 64GB iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus has also been dropped by $50 to $229 and $329, respectively. The discounted prices require you to sign a contract from AT&T , Verizon Wireless or Sprint. Walmart is hoping that the price drop — which lasts until February 2015 — will drive customers into its stores during the holiday season. Less than 10 percent of Americans complete their Christmas shopping lists by December, reports the National Retail Federation. This means that Walmart has plenty of time to capitalize on its aggressive pricing strategy during this holiday season SwitchEasy has announced the upcoming release of three new iPhone cases: the Camo and Boombox for iPhone 6, and Numbers for iPhone 6 Plus.

Recently, as retaliation to Amazon's double standards, Google changed its rules which forced Amazon to remove its Android app from the Google Play store. Earlier this year, Amazon had quietly integrated its Amazon Appstore to its Android shopping app. That feature made it possible for Android users to download apps to their devices directly from Amazon while cutting Google Play out of the process, disrupting Google's abilities to track Android app downloads and regulate what apps it allows on its mobile operating system. People have been divided on their views on this act of Amazon's, one faction saying that it was only an advertising strategy on the company's part while the other terming this act as illicit. Let us look into the core businesses of the two companies. While Google engages in search and advertising, Amazon is involved in e-commerce. A few business aspects of both the companies overlap though. Both companies offer cloud storage, sell digital content like music, e-books, movies and TV shows, and each sells smartphones, tablets and digital media players.
That's made the two companies rivals, particularly in the mobile and consumers spaces, and it has led to both being very protective about their services by keeping them off each other's devices as much as possible. This is going to have an adverse effect on the overall Amazon device sales. For the user of Amazon's devices, this has come as a disappointment.
This means that the users of Amazon would not to be not be availed to any of the features and apps listed Google Play. The only service that Google has allowed on the platform is the YouTube app credited to "youtube.com," but otherwise, Amazon device owners are deprived of many of Google's popular services. This has made Amazon less attractive than an average Android device. You may interested on: cute iphone 5/5S cases
