You may be familiar with Amazon as a store and streaming service, but soon you may hear about its browser too, as a survey suggests the company may be considering making one.
For the most part, the list pretty much consists of the bare minimum that a modern user could expect out of a browser. But then, we’ve got that last point, which is rather unique. Typically, browsers don’t offer such built-in options, so this could potentially be a strong selling point for a new browser.
The survey describes this theoretical piece of software as a desktop/laptop experience, but mobile integration is mentioned too. Plus, we all know that browsers on phones are much more impactful nowadays, not only due to ease of use, but also from a profitability standpoint. All in all, none of this should be taken as concrete confirmation that Amazon is preparing to create and launch a browser.
