And I should also note that the tablet's internal speakers are pretty decent.
This seems a good spot to mention that the tablet has no headphone jack - you can connect headphones wirelessly via Bluetooth (it's Bluetooth 5.3) or wired via the USB-C port.

And if your headphones have a companion Android app (Sony, Beats, Bose, etc.), it likely won't be available in Amazon's app store. However, if you're looking for a Google Drive app in Amazon's app store, what you get instead is an app that's a bookmark to.

Additionally, Amazon throws in a three-month free trial to Microsoft Office 365.
Zoom and Microsoft Teams video-conferencing apps are available, as is Microsoft's OneNote app (I used it for testing the stylus).

However, with a tablet like this that's designed to be a more robust productivity tool and not just a gateway to the company's entertainment content and a dashboard for controlling your Alexa-enabled smart home devices (you can put it into Show Mode to turn it into an Echo Show-like smart display minus the integrated, much fuller sounding speaker), if you don't sideload the Play Store, you'll miss out on a broader array of apps that help this tablet reach its full potential.Īmazon's app store has many of the apps you'll want and need, but far from all of them. Some people may feel comfortable living in Amazon's walled garden. No, it doesn't quite measure up to the most affordable iPad, but it's a worthy alternative, especially if you opt for the Fire Max 11 "productivity bundle" with the bundled keyboard case and powered stylus for $330 - the same MSRP of the entry-level (ninth-gen) iPad, sans accessories. But it's Amazon's first tablet to have a more premium bent with an aluminum chassis (instead of plastic) and a stronger productivity angle that includes better front- and rear-facing cameras than previous Fire tablet models and a faster MediaTek processor that serves up a zippier experience. The new Fire Max 11, which starts at $230 with 64GB of storage and lock-screen ads enabled, is also a value play for Amazon. I've been reviewing Amazon Fire tablets for many years, and probably the best thing you could say about them was that they tended to be very good values for Amazon Prime users and parents who could pawn them off as "good enough" iPads to their young children for a fraction of the cost of an actual Apple iPad.
