亚马逊正在对其网站上的两款安卓手机进行降价销售。
Amazon is slashing prices for two Androids listed on the site.
这一电商巨头此前曾宣布将网站上的部分机型进行降价销售,价格可能低至50美元。作为交换,该公司将在手机中预装亚马逊的应用软件,并向购买改款手机的用户推送更多的广告。
The e-commerce giant announced it is now selling some models for as low as $50, in exchange for the ability to pre-install Amazon apps and show users more ads on the phone.
消费者可以在最新款的摩托罗拉Moto G和蓝光R1之中进行选择,但是他们必须要等到7月12日才能够将购买的手机拿到手。除了要等一段时间才能拿到货以外,不是该网站高级会员的人将不能够享受这一优惠。
Customers can choose between the latest Motorola Moto G and the BLU R1 HD, but consumers will have to wait until July 12th to receive either. Not only is there a wait for the handsets, those who do not have an elite Prime membership cannot reap the benefits of this compelling deal at all.
但是对那些每年支付99美元的人(指会员)来说,他们就可以购买这两款机型,还可以享受最高5折的优惠。
However, for those who do pay the $99 a year can have their choice of the two handsets that are up to 50 percent off the full retail price.
一台崭新的蓝光R1只卖49.99美元(原价99.99美元),而第四代摩托罗拉Moto G只卖149.99美元(原价199.99美元)。两款手机都提供解锁服务,而且用户不会被强迫签订使用合约,这意味着用户们可以按自己的喜好来选择运营商。
The all-new BLU R1 HD is only $49.99 (retails at $99.99) and the new fourth-generation Motorola Moto G is $149.99 (retails at $199.99). Both smartphones are offered unlocked and users will not be forced into a contract, which means they can choose the carrier they prefer.
不过,蓝光手机运载的是全球移动通信系统,因此它只兼容T-Mobile和ATT协议,但是选择Moto G的用户们可以自由选择任何的美国运营商。
However, The BLU is GSM, so it is only compatible with T-Mobile and ATT, while users who opt-in for the Moto G can choose any US carrier.
这一举措和亚马逊之前对其Fire平板电脑所采取的“特别优惠”措施类似。消费者们能够以折扣价格买到一款手机,但是在手机锁屏时,他们会收到亚马逊和第三方机构的广告。
This move is similar to how Amazon approaches 'special offers' with its own Fire Tablets. Consumers can purchase a device for a discounted price, but will see targeted ads for Amazon and third-party devices when the screen is locked.
亚马逊公司声称,如果消费者们对其接收到的广告感兴趣(无论是在通知中看到还是在锁屏时的广告推送中看到),他们可以点击了解详情,而如果消费者不感兴趣,他们只要把它关闭了就可以。
When consumers receive an offer they find interesting, whether in a notification or the locked screen, they can just tap to learn more or simply dismiss it if they do not want it, claims the firm.
按照该协议第二部分的规定,消费者们拿到折扣手机后,只要一开机,包括亚马逊、亚马逊音乐、亚马逊视频、Prime Now和Audible等软件就会被预装在手机里。这些应用软件可以从手机屏幕上移除,但是被永久安装在手机里,不能删除。
The second part of the this deal includes Amazon, Amazon Music, Amazon Video, Prime Now and Audible being pre-installed from the moment you power on your discounted smartphone. These apps can be removed from the home screen, but are permanently installed in the phone.
