The technological giants that offer services are in the process of modifying their product catalog to adapt it to the current times. Basically, what is being done is to offer cheaper options to users, even if they have to lose some services. And this is what Amazon is testing right now with Prime. The place that has been chosen to learn about the impact of the new service is India, and we are talking about a new subscription that is cheaper and that, for this to be viable, has reduced significantly (but not dramatically) what is get with her. In addition, the company created by Jeff Bezos already has a name for its new service and, the truth is that they have not wanted to experiment with strange things: Amazon Prime Lite. More simple and intuitive, impossible. What Amazon does and does not offer in this subscription One of the things that is important to know is that purchases with free shipping are part of the new subscription, but there is something that cannot be accessed with it: the arrival of what is acquired in a day. The minimum is two, which is not something particularly serious because in general this is a more than sensible time to receive a product. Additionally, access to Prime Video is also included, but with some limitations. According to what has been known, viewing the catalog of the video platform that competes with Netflix or Disney+ can be done exclusively from Android and iOS clients (no web and even third-party operating systems). Besides, the resolution of the contents will not be 4K in any case, going down to HD. The truth is that this will not be exactly a problem for many… but you must be clear that the limitations exist. On the other hand, other options that exist with Amazon Prime as we know it now will simply be inaccessible. An example is Prime Music or Prime Reading (and the same is also true for Gaming). But of course, you can’t ask for everything paying less. Price and possible arrival in other regions Well, in India what it costs to access Amazon Prime Lite is 33% less than usual, so we are talking about 999 rupees (which in exchange would be about 33 euros more or less per year). A good option that, it is possible, that more than one who does not take advantage of all the products of the well-known online store can consider to save. In what has to do with the deployment in other regions, such as Europe, we will have to wait and see if everything works and if the new subscription is designed for everyone, of course. >
