The latest Prime Exclusive news
August 1, 2018 — LG Stylo 4 now available for $249.99
For folks that are in the market for a stylus-equipped Android phone but don't want to shell out $700-$900 for the upcoming Galaxy Note 9, LG's got a solid alternative with its Stylo 4.
Launching as a rebranded version of the Q Stylus that was announced in early June, the Stylo 4 is equipped with a 6.2-inch 18:9 display with a 2160 x 1080 resolution. There's a 13MP camera on the back, 5MP wide-angle camera up front, and a 3,300 mAh battery that's charged via USB Type-C.
Also included is the Snapdragon 450, 3GB RAM, 32GB of expandable storage (up to 2TB), Android 8.1 Oreo, and a stylus that can be housed inside the Stylo 4 when you aren't using it.
The LG Stylo 4 is available through the Prime Exclusive program right now for just $249.99 ($50 off its MSRP of $299.99)
June 21, 2018 — Moto Z3 Play and Moto G6 Play are now in the Prime Exclusive lineup
The Moto Z3 Play is a solid upgrade to last year's Z2 Play, but the $499 retail price doesn't really make it stand out in this segment. Thankfully, Amazon is now making the Z3 Play available via its Prime Exclusive lineup, knocking $50 off the price of the device. The Prime variant of the Z3 Play retails for $449, and is now up for sale for Prime subscribers.
The Z3 Play offers a 6.0-inch FHD+ Super AMOLED screen, Snapdragon 636, dual 12MP + 5MP cameras at the back, 8MP front shooter, 4GB of RAM, 64GB of internal memory, microSD slot, and a 3000mAh battery. Motorola is bundling a Moto Power Pack with every unit for free, with the Moto Mod offering a 2200mAh battery capacity.
And for a limited time, Amazon will throw in a Moto Smart Speaker with Amazon Alexa for free with every purchase of the Moto Z3 Play. The Moto Mod by itself retails for $149, so combine that with the $50 discount and the Prime variant of the Moto Z3 Play is a pretty great deal.
Prime members can now pick up the Moto Z3 Play from Amazon, with the phone set for an official release on June 29.
As for the Moto G6 Play, it is the more affordable variant of the Moto G6, and Prime members can get their hands on the device for $189, $10 off its retail price.
As a refresher, the Moto G6 Play features a 5.7-inch HD+ 18:9 panel, and is powered by the Snapdragon 427. You also get 3GB of RAM and 32GB of storage, a microSD slot, 13MP rear camera, 5MP front camera, and a massive 4000mAh battery.
Both phones come with a host of Amazon apps pre-installed, including the Amazon Widget, Amazon Shopping, and Amazon Alexa. You'll also be able to set Alexa as the default voice assistant on either device should you wish to do so.

How are they so much cheaper?
Prime Exclusive Phones are considerably cheaper than their non-Prime counterparts, but how can this be?
No matter which one you choose, all Prime Exclusive Phones come with pre-installed Amazon apps, including Amazon Shopping, Prime Video, Amazon Kindle, Amazon Music, etc.
There used to be advertisements on the lock screen of every Prime Exclusive phone, too, but Amazon changed this is February by simply kicking the price up of all its phones by $20 and removed the ads.
