@@JeremyPeeples yeah lol you give up a lot. They glossed over the lack of the play store really fast. What use is the keyboard if you can barely use it for anything useful. That's why it's so cheap.
@@GFGokudepends on the person and the agreement. This screams that the agreement was that they talked it up a lot though. The only bad thing I heard throughout this video was that the stylus has a battery… I know they have more thoughts about it
The stylus using a AAAA battery keeps the price down since it doesn’t need a charging circuit & rechargeable battery. Amazon says battery lasts about 6 months. The Apple Pencil that charges wirelessly (2nd gen) costs $129. For a tablet at this price, I understand the trade off. The $329 iPads only support the non-wireless charging Pencil (extra $99), and keyboard is extra. Microsoft 365 support & Echo Show mode are bonuses. The main issue is that the FireOS app store is smaller.
Unless it's an ipad but productivity can literally be typing up word and excel documents. I guarantee no artist is looking at this for their level of productivity
Unlike Windows, FireOS doesn’t chew up a lot of RAM. iPad Pro models didn’t have more than 4GB until recently. It works with Microsoft (Office) 365, has keyboard & stylus for under $400, & a microSD slot. It’s a Chromebook, iPad competitor for those in the Amazon ecosystem, it’s not a $1K PC replacement.
This feels so much like those daytime home shopping network sales that Grandma buys from and the hosts are just ABSOLUTELY SHOCKED that this mop (or something) with its "breakthrough cutting edge technology" is being sold at such a low price compared to its unbeatable quality and you better call now because they're "going fast" and you wouldn't want to miss this ONCE IN A LIFETIME OPPORTUNITY 👍
Yeah this will be $149 or less on Black Friday or prime day. I got the latest Fire 10 last year for almost half off at $79.99. It is a great tablet after I installed Google Play. Hopefully the new max table can also be hacked.
@@meandmyEV yeah I got the 10 on Black Friday a year and a half ago. Ad free version too! I put Google Play on all ours, even the kid ones. Love these things.
@@meandmyEV Normally I do it that way too but my old tablet was just not cutting it anymore so I got the fire 10+ when it came out XD. I also put google play on mine, so easy and adds so much, I am looking forward to snagging the new 11 max and a pen the keyboard is to rich for my blood lol
I wish they would just put stock android on it and not FireOS (which I know is based off Android). the Amazon app store kinda sucks and while I know I could get the google play store on there, would be nice to just have the option without a lot of fuss.
Its part of the compromise, they used to make it impossible to install play store but then they just one day stopped blocking it and it was as simple as installing like 3 apks. Them forking android allows them to not have to deal with google or follow some of the stupid rules. I will happily pay less and need to install play store manually haha
I feel like if they leaned heavily into the productivity side this could be a decent tablet solution for a lot of on the go jobs or even in education. The thing that blew me away was the quality of the camera you demonstrated. Studio lighting or not I've seen some pretty potato quality footage come from higher priced tablets... so that was impressive. Glad to see they haven't given up the fight and are still innovating and improving and at a killer price point.
The fire tablets go on massive sales during prime day and black Friday. You can also flash the OS to run stock Android making it the best value tablet by far.
I got the samsung tab and it has been my go to comic and manga reader. it can even handle a few of the games i like, though personally i prefer gaming on pc and don't like playing on the go so i don't use my tablet for that. but i would say the tab has been great for me and its a fairly open bootlauncher so its not too hard to put a custom android rom on it if you don't like samsung's default os and interface, or like me want a more private android experience;
For devices at this price it’s mainly about what ecosystem you’re in. Microsoft 365 & Echo Show functionality are benefits here, FireOS app store is smaller though.
I at least appreciate that someone has made a tablet that can actually replace the low-end/cheap laptops without needing to spend almost a $1,000 to get the complete package. This is something that I might actually consider at some point because I have been thinking about getting a chromebook because I need something that I can use when my back locks up and I'm stuck in bed for a few days and can't manage to tolerate even just sitting at my desk to use my desktop.
I had the fire 10 productivity tablet and i have to say it was a horrible experience for productivity office just gets so bad after awhile. Sorry but fire tablets are entertainment good nothing else.
0:18 yeahhh “gaming” not so much Austin…😅 Have you ever actually tried to game on the Fire 7 tablet? It is rough. It’s definitely not as bad on the more expensive Amazon Fire tablets like the 8 Plus or 10 Plus but man 😬
in my pass experience, the hardware was good for the price for fire tablets. one of my main issue and frustration for amazon tablet is there app store. 1/2 the app are out date and awful.
Yeah, for Android it hogs RAM like a mofo so bare minimum should be 6GB or 8GB on budget/mid-range Android devices. Most $200-300 Android phones have 8GB of RAM nowadays (unless you live in the US where budget phones suck ass compared to other countries).
I mean you literally can't watch RUclips on a dedicated RUclips app or go on discord or do like anything you would really want to do on any of Amazon's tablets. Seeing how terrible these budget tablets are and how limited Amazon makes them while badgering you with ads constantly on your lock screen and a home screen and everywhere else made me really want to just save up for a legitimate tablet which I did. It doesn't really matter how good the hardware is if the software and operating system are absolute dog crap. Period. Serious waste of money.
Am I that naive, or are they just doing a good job being vague about the company they're comparing the tablet to? I thought they were referencing Microsoft's Surface Pro
I dont know if I watched you for this long to know what Matt and Austin was thinking in their minds when they said that the fire tablet “excelled in gaming” and etc 😂😂😂😂😂
The problem: Amazon's flavor or android, is horrible, I side loaded the play store in the 8inch fire tablet that I got from a pot-head a few years ago for $20 and still was a nigthmare, spent a bit more and got a Lenovo Tab 4 8 inch and was lovely, 5 years later my girlfriend still uses it for media and my mom threw the Fire 8 into a cabinet and never heard of it again, I'm ashamed to ask her for it since is so bad and would be of no use, the only good thing is the case, woa, what an amazing case, that is the only thing amazon did right with those tablets
Hmm, interesting, my current Fire Tab 10 (2020), is only useful for reading comics. Everything is so slow an sluggish it is useless :) my Galaxy Tab S8+ fills the need for everything else. But a possible option to upgrade my GFs fire tablet.
What do you do on them? I'm using the fire hd 10+ right now and it does basically all the stuff that I do at work. O365 stuff, email, ppts and then e-readers, yt, comics all work as well. The only thing I don't like about the max11 is that it doesn't have a 3.5mm jack.
I REALLY hate the OS of those firetablets. I had 2 before for some days and i could barely use them because there was no playstore and i couldn't even sideload apps
I am really interested in getting one of these. I have been wanting a portable drawing device combo tablet and always find they are WAY overpriced. At sub $400 for the complete package at 128g storage, you cannot beat it. They really did take it to the Max!
For drawing, I’d look into what the OS & apps compatible with the stylus can do. You may be better off with a $329 iPad & $99 Apple Pencil. Which device you should get depends a lot on the software & ecosystem. This tablet works with Microsoft 365, and works as an Echo show, but the FireOS app store is smaller.
I used a Fire 10 as a drawing tablet for some time. Usually they are my go-to because they are dirt cheap. By virtue an iPad is better but if you're not a bonafide artist and just using it as a sketchbook of sorts, the Kindle is a steal
I had 2 fire tablets die within 5 months, will never have another fire tablet again. The Samsung I got as a replacement had been faultless and so much faster and much better on battery consumption
This should be launched in the Indian market by Amazon looking at their Prime subscription volume out here. The price is really great, even if we consider the Indian standards (no pun intended)man.
Good value anywho!! When surfing on the interweb and watching Austin Evans videos and "LTT" 😉 on the tube. It's no brainer for that price. Good value for the price. Good consumer tech 😁👍👍👍
Jesus you guys must have gotten like 1 million off of Amazon to promote this. Fire Tablets are only good to kids and or reading eBooks which iPads are better and infinitely more powerful than any Fire Tablet.
This is totally just a branded deal, c'mon guys this thing is nothing special, all tablets can have keyboards and styluses they have been selling Bluetooth peripheral's like this forever. I mean, you guys do you get a bag off Amazon, but don't try and tell us this bloated spyware device is the best thing ever. Amazon has been selling its tablets at a loss since they started making them, why because they lock you into a shitty version of android they that's Heavily branded and restricted (on earlier devices you had to side load the bloody play store because they only wanted you to use Amazon web store for apps), then they use your personal information and browsing habits to sell you more shit.
The irony of marketing a tablet without an official RUclips app on RUclips is insane and that script Amazon wrote there’s a reason they didn’t go with a channel like a Linus medi group channel
The worst electronic I've ever purchased was Kindle fires for our kids. WORST ever! Santa brought them junk, so I ended up having to trade Santa for iPads. Thanks Santa! The iPads are going strong yet after 4 years of abuse. Id bet these are way better than my experience. The ones I bough originally were loaded with so much crap that new apps didnt even function.
Finally, Amazon made something affordable to compete with Microsoft Surface, IPad, Samsung Tablets, and other knock off similar tablets AIO. I always felt Amazon was going toward a Microsoft or Apple direction yet making it affordable. Amazon is more of a sneaky, here we are, but much cheaper, get the quality at lower price. Amazon is: Slow and steady win the race. Yet they don't care if they are the best, they are who they are, love them hate them, who cares. Amazon going to do what they do best. WIN!
i'm not sure how much money Amazon threw at them for this video, i really hope is alot. i can see they're struggle on the face 🤣🤣

Or something like mr mobile where he stresses his exact policy and he never takes money or gives copy approval
also it wouldnt be hard to access bios, wipe the drive, and get windows 11 s on there
