GARBAGE. DEFECTIVE. REPLACED BY AMAZON. RETURNED TO STORE.

First let me say that this is a very premium feeling tablet. I had an 8 inch one that is several years old and this is by far much nicer feeling and has a higher quality heft to it. The screen is very nice and adjusts for brightness (another nice function of the keyboard is the ability to adjust screen brightness without having to navigate through menus). Touch sensitivity was also good. I've used some items that are supposedly touch sensitive that make you wonder who they are geared toward because it takes multiple inputs to make it work. The size of the screen seems perfect for a tablet with minimal bezels. With this screen being so large it made viewing media (like youtube) nice to view and watch and touch inputs like on-screen keyboard were excellent and well spaced. All of these fine points are negated by: (1) constant advertising especially on getting the screen to come back on after it goes to sleep (2) limited app availability in the Amazon store - a real deal killer to me to use as a travel replacement for my windows laptop. I also found the activation of this unit to be obtuse - directions were sparse and I am not in the Amazon ecosystem. I tried to get it to install with the app on the phone to no avail. I finally did it manually with success. I guess if you are used to the activation of amazon items, this would be more intuitive; as someone who isn't in the Amazon system, I found the activation frustrating. I was able to install my Windows / Office 365 which I use on all of my systems so this is a plus. But to be able to use my phone/android apps is not possible - a real shortcoming to this.

The Amazon Fire Max tablet is a good light use tablet, perfect for someone who wants to watch videos, play some games, send some emails, and scroll through social media. This particular model has ads on the lock screen, you can pay a small fee to Amazon to have the ads removed from the device if you want. I have an Amazon Prime subscription which make the Fire Max tablet a nice addition to my gadget family. I can watch shows and movies on Prime, shop on Amazon, and read my kindle books! The screen resolution is beautiful and the tablet responds quickly and as I expected. You can purchase a separate micro SD card to expand your storage capacity, (they have kindly included the tool to open the SD card slot so be careful not to lose it.) You can download games from the Amazon App Store, save movies and TV shows to watch when you are traveling and with out internet. I can get around 12 hours of use before I need to recharge the tablet. Overall I like the Fire Max tablet and enjoy using it frequently.

The tablet is a powerful and versatile device. Its sleek design and vibrant display make it a pleasure to use. The battery life is impressive, allowing for extended usage on the go. With its fast processor and ample storage, it's perfect for both work and entertainment. Highly recommended!

Having owned other Fire tablets in the past, and not being really impressed by anything they did, my expectations were not that high for how this latest tablet would be. I was wrong! This tablet was a pleasant surprise, both in form and in function. It comes with 64 gigs of ram, wifi 6 on board, and even has a expandable micro sd card slot, something very few other tablets, or cell phones for that matter come with any more. It even included a sim ejector tool for opening up the san disk card slot..nice touch! It boots up quickly, and there was a software update waiting to be downloaded and installed. After upgrading, it asked me if I wanted to restore any or all of my previous Amazon programs and such, and also, automatically populated my Kindle library, which was nice! Eleven inches is a nice size for reading/video watching, etc, and it was nice watching netflix hulu, and you tube videos. Because this is an Amazon product, you are bombarded with Amazon Ads and offers, and its a bit difficult to download things that arent native to the Amazon eco system All in all, very good value compared to the competition, and, if you are looking for a above average tablet, at a below average price, this tablet would serve you well!

I've been using the new Fire Max 11 for the last several days. It is a sleek but a well constructed device. This this the latest offering tablet-wise from Amazon. Set up was quite simple and it quickly linked my amazon accounts together and this was impressive on how quickly and easily this was to accomplish. The screen is bright and has good clarity, but only offers 2k viewing. The operating system is still far behind Android and Apple and limited with apps. The 11 inch screen is definitely a plus. I got this with the case/keyboard and stylus bundle and they all work well together. The touch screen features are quite responsive and it has better than average speed. The speakers are decent, but it lacks that crisp sound you can find in other tablets and phones. Battery life has been soild and charges quickly. Its a good everyday use tablet. The web browser called Silk isn't anything to get excited about. It's underwhelming and not what I wouldn't want to use on a daily basis. The camera is also ok, but not one which would give you any wow moments. All in all I would recommend this for basic everyday use. That's what makes this a good value.

The Tablet includes a startup guide, USB-A to USB-C cable and AC adapter. The Tablet doesn’t have a 3.5m headphone jack. Instead, it only has the USB-C port. To use headphones, you’ll either need a 3.5m to USB-C adapter or Bluetooth headphones. Either way, the sound is nice and clear without static. The Bluetooth connection is easy and quick. Amazon Fire Max 11 Bundle specs: - 4GB RAM, 64GB internal storage (another model is 128GB), 2.4MB 11” screen. - Eternal Micro SD card slot for up to 1TB External/Portable Storage (Micro SD card isn’t included) - Light weight and thin, about 16oz and about as thin as a pencil. - 8MP front and back-facing camera with 1080p HD video recording and rear autofocus. - Excellent multitasking with the included stylus and keyboard. Both automatically pair with the Fire Max 11 tablet. These are just a few of the 19+ technical details for the Amazon Fire 11 Max. The Amazon Fire Max 11 tablet has many productivity apps already installed, as well as the standard Amazon apps. IE: shopping, Appstore, Prime Video, Kindle, Amazon music, Utilities (weather, clock, calendar, contacts, maps, help, and Amazon Offers). The battery life, after a full charge, can last up to 14 hours. The Fire Max Tablet has dual-band WiFi 802.1 a/b/g/n/ac/nx connectivity as well as hotspots. The USB-C (2.0) connector with the adapter allows for quick charging. The Micro SD card slot is a “drawer” that opens using an included “pin”. The Audio is well balanced and easily controlled with the external buttons on the top of the tablet. This makes listening to my Audible Books a pleasure. The screen is perfectly clear for streaming, gaming, and reading.

I would start by saying that this is the first time I’ve ever experienced the Fire series of tablets and with this being the 13th generation that is a long time for me not to give something a try. Fortunately the experience right out of the box was a positive one, and throughout the first couple of weeks the Fire Max won me over in many ways. I have a lot of Alexa enabled home with a lot of smart elements from lighting to fans, as well as my home protection package. The Fire Max immediately established itself as a mobile ‘console’ with the ability to control all of these devices with a touch of a button on the main screen. This has been super handy when wanting to check on pets or just turning off the forgotten light downstairs. As a productivity device, the Fire Max comes with a full suite of Amazon branded apps - great if you’re already using them, but maybe a learning curve if you’re used to using other operating platforms. In a bit of a surprise, there is a version of Office 365 that proved pretty handy when my work laptop was out of reach. Battery life has been excellent even under the heavier load of playing games or watching media content. I found myself wanting to do these things more on the Fire than my phone for this reason, and the tablet stays in close reach when I’m at home. The one thing I did find disappointing was the advertising on the Lock Screen. We see so much advertising everywhere we go that the last thing I wanted to be surprised by is constant marketing while I’m trying to unlock with the fingerprint reader. It’s possible that there is a way to turn this off that I haven’t discovered, but I would rather have opted in than have to find somewhere to opt out later. It detracted enough from my user experience to lower my rating by one star but might not bother you at all.

I have used older Fire tablets, and they always just became overpriced Kindles after a few months. This one has the potential to be better. The form factor is better for movies as it is a lot taller then previous Fire tablets I've used. If you have it landscape mode, it splits the books into two columns/pages. Widescreen movies look so much better, and I can see much more of my email box when I have it portrait mode. The speed isn't great but it is good enough for a consumption type device. I'm never going to use this to replace a laptop. I might use it for some light office tasks as it is big enough to see documents and know where to sign with my finger or the not included stylus pen Amazon sells. I could see using some of the paid art apps as well. There is a basic Microsoft Office app and that can be useful for reading documents but used need a keyboard and a Microsoft Office subscription to make the most of it. I have that and find it easy to use. Overall, if you like the Fire tablets but wished it was bigger, buy this!

The Amazon Fire Max Tablet is a good all around general use for the less tech savvy. The reason I say that is the amazon OS is really dumb down so you can't do too much with it. You unbox it, power it on and you are immediately thrust into a registration mode using your amazon account. The magnetic case that covers the back is nice and feels durable. There is an optional keyboard and stylus that are not sold with the tablet and must be purchased separately. You get a browser app to surf the internet and then of course you get all the perks that come with Amzaon, videos, music, books etc. Colors look great, sound is good and the battery life is really nice, about 3 hours of constant use. If you are just using it to read occasionally probably more. The app store will let you download some apps like facebook but be warned this is not google play store of Ios App store, choices are limited. I would get this tablet if you looking to dive into the amazon eco system as a multipurpose Kindle but you want to look at some other OS options if you are looking for anything beyond basic functionality.

I love it would tell anyboby for the price you cannot go wrong bit buy thw keyboard with it

It works very well for the uses that we purchased it for. The screen size was one of the major features that we needed it for and we are very satisfied.

Amazingly good. Bright and sharp. Worth the money. Make sure they don't put those very annoying ads on your screen. Nothing in the ad said they came with the tablet. Bring in the Google Aps Store. Works pretty well.

I love this new tablet. It is really fast and the display is very bright. It is a lot faster than my old fire tablet. I would recommend this to anyone looking for a new tablet.

Amazing product, this is my 4th tablet in 15 years. My husband and I enjoy the quality, convenience and price. We have never been dissatisfied with this company.

The upgrade the wife loves faster brighter and larger the key board and pin make this tablet easier to use, AMAZON keeps trying to make it better at a good price.

My daughter loved it it was a birthday gift. She takes it everywhere she goes. Is now reading more books here as well.

Works great and love. My new Kindle works better than the old one. I highly recommend it.

This tablet replaced an older Fire 10. It has a better screen and is much faster.

This is an awesome tablet! Highly recommend!! It works great and is easy to use.
