If it does fail, I don't think that it will be because the phone isn't good, I think it will have more to do with the price point. It's a very expensive off contract price when there are better phones that are cheaper. When considering that the specs are around the area of the Nexus 5 that's half the price off contract, I can see it being a hard sell. But who knows. It could be a great compliment to all of those who have the Kindle Fire tablets.
