Small correction: you get a year of Prime free with purchase of the phone, and if you're already a Prime member, they extend your existing membership by one year. This is way down the page though.

I'm really surprised that they didn't feature this information in the price displays themselves for existing Prime members.

That's not a small correction and it's worth noting, thank you for pointing that out! Yeah that information should be prominently displayed there. "This phone costs $200+contract and comes with $100 worth of Amazon Prime for free" is a much better selling point than "This phone costs $200+contract, just like every other high-end phone out there"
Yeah, but even including a year worth of Prime, that's still a very huge price tag for so little hardware, and an unproven software.
