Fire Max 11 First Look! The Most Powerful Amazon Tablet Yet! Hands On Testing

[@anglo-saxonconnor817]

I have a soft spot for tablets especially if their designs are sleek. It's like a piece of magic mirror described in legends carried by immortals. Lol

[@TBMartin]

Why not make your own magic mirror with a raspberry pi?

I'm actually watching this on a fire max 11😂. But actually I got it today and it is awesome! It is so powerful and the screen is beautiful!

[@sarmatiko]

I love my Fire HD10 tablet and it's an absolute steal for 55-60$ Certified refurbished device (I bought four already, for my family members and all were in "like new" condition). To be honest the more expensive this kind of content consuming device gets, the less attractive it becomes. Maybe I'll grab it in year or two for 130$ refurbished, but for now 230$ purchase feels unnecessary for what it does, at least for me personally.

[@cryengine_x]

it'll sale for probably 149, hopefully even less. too each his own but i dont mind the price bump because youre getting a lot more. more power, aluminum build, 4gb ram. also you have to account for inflation. something costing 2x what it did a few years ago sadly isn't even unusual. amazon might keep selling the old ones too.

[@andreamitchell4758]

@@cryengine_x yeah hopefully it goes on sale there is 20% trade in on top of the sale that takes off 20% from the original price but I am not so sure because lately the 20% trade in deal only take 20% off the sale prices. I really want the productivity bundle but I donlt think it is worth $320, also I am pretty sire you can no longer disable fire launcher or amazon processes, my fire HD 8 got updated and it sucks now, the work arounds are terrible , on is lsow and buggy and the other is ok but it does not survive rebbot ,If I am going to spend $320 I rather get a chinese tbalet and be able to use nova on it.

I have had this tablet for a couple weeks. I can say that I have tested a good amount of ps2 games and they run great. Some even upscaled. There are some that I could not get to run. Like Smackdown here comes the pain. But the Warriors, wwe all Stars, max Payne, legends of wrestling, def jam fight for new York, scarface all worked. Psp games really shine on this tablet. God of War, ufc 2010, wwe smackdown vs raw games, fight night round 3, etc... dreamcast ran good too.

would you recommend this over the xiomi redmi pad with 6gb ram? on amazon in US they are the exact same price right now. Performance Wise I think the Xiomi has a tiny bit better? but not to familiar with the new processor in the Fire max 11

[@DaleonM4]

Redmi has a snapdragon is kinda old but you'll het more compatibility in emulation even drivers for some.

[@Qudths]

UGH, so close. this is compelling as it is, but i'd pay $70 more if it had the 3.5mm headphone jack and a USB-C 3.1 hdmi out. finding a tablet with usb-c 3.1 at $300 or less is a challenge!

@@MrJ0mmy at this point it's kind of a race to the bottom. Years ago 8 inch amazon fire tablets had FHD screens, now they went back to 1024x600 for the 7 inch model and 1280x800 for the 8 inch one, and comparably crappier CPUs. Other manufacturers use decent screens and slightly better CPUs, but mid tier smartphones are still more powerful.

[@AdmV0rl0n]

its 2023, and tablets are still playing with the 64GB storage IDIOCY I swore a long time ago I'm done with tablets and non removal storage. Either put in 500GB, 1TB as standard, or put in NVME slots. Or have no sale to me.

[@oo--7714]

Bro, even laptops don't come with 500gb storage at the £500 price point. And this is mega cheap, obviously the storage space will be tiny. Mobile phone games don't take up a lot of storage and barely anyone emulates games on their phones, tgat is why oems don't put that much storage, also the price would be way too inflated.

[@AdmV0rl0n]

@@oo--7714 You need to really get your facts straight when answering. 500 has no issue getting a 500GB drive. But thats not really the point. 500 for certain will get you an NVME or slot to do your storage.

[@TigerTT]

That's why there's tons of better options for Android tablets all over Amazon. Samsung, Lenovo and TCL make some good ones.

[@nickspeck]

At this price I feel you're better off buying a pre-owned Galaxy Tab S7. Your security updates are going to run out more quickly, but your performance and form factor are better. I picked up a "blemished" Tab S7 last year off of eBay for $175. It has an almost unnoticeable amount of backlight bleed, which was why it was refurbed. The performance is incredible, and performance tests of both tabs show the S7 markedly better. Just my two cents, but that's the route I'd go. I use my Tab S7 every day, and its integration with my phone makes it even better.

[@Wineoclockbookworm]

Stardew Valley looks amazing on this tablet! I'm curious, though. Does anyone use this tablet for ebooks? I'm currently using my old 2013 Fire HDX7. It's very small portable and light but the battery life is disappointing.

[@hamzaj1127]

Late lol but it’s a crisp, bright screen. It’ll be heavier than your 7, it’s double the size. The battery is like 12 hours at least, it’s great there. Right now you can get a refurbished fire max 11 for 120

The benefit of Amazon products like this is Amazon allows you to pay Monthly WITHOUT the typical APR crap like Affirm. For this tablet, $46 a month for 5 months WITHOUT APR Definitely affordable if you want something like this. Amazon does this for MANY of its own products and others, so its very simple to buy something expensive but for an affordable monthly price without having to pay extra for APR.

[@michaelcorcoran8768]

To honestly that does not seem like a great deal to me given that the fire 10 can be found for 80 bucks once a month. It has the same chipset, the same amount of RAM and a 3.5 mm headphone jack. By the time you get the keyboard bundle with this one, it's over $300 you might as well just get a Lenovo duet 5, or 3. I feel like the $80 value proposition for the fire 10 is understandable but by the time you're up to $300 plus with the keyboard on this one, you do a lot better with the Chrome OS tablet. That has an OLED screen, keyboard comes in the box, can run Android apps and has a full Chrome OS desktop with proper desktop versions of browsers etc extensions..

[@DigitalIP]

@@michaelcorcoran8768 shows up as being $30 for 5 months for me, so depending on the differences the 11 might be the better choice. I dont think most people would buy those tablets though

[@likethewind5088]

$230 and you get a bloatware infested tablet with only 4gb of ram and 64gb of storage. Not worth it at all. Should realistically be $150 max. All the other tablets in the same price bracket (-50+) have 6gb of ram and 128gb of storage. Not to mention no ads.

I just purchased my first Chinese retro emulation handheld a few hours ago. It's the $20 Data Frog SF2000. I knew about it a few months ago from Sonic Love Emulation. Then I saw TechDweeb talk about it recently and then I went, why the hell not? I'm a cheap MFER when it comes to gaming. I mean, why are some of us into retro emulation? To download FREE games! I swore to never buy one of these since I already have an Essential Phone, Pixel 3, Razr 5G, Galaxy Z Flip 3, modded PSP slim, and modded Vita slim to emulate all those old games. And I nearly got the Razr+ today. TechDweeb and his nerdy, nasal voice got me convinced. If it sucks, I'll just gift it to my nephews in the Philippines. They make perfect Kris Kringle gifts. I figured I wanted this because I love the SNES controller so much and I needed a backup to my Vita and PSP in case their buttons starts wearing off. A lot of old games, there's tons of button mashing. The Data Frog has a really nice form factor that I prefer over $60+ ones. I could easily just get an Abernic or Miyoo Mini Plus. But why spend 3-5x more and I have smartphones more powerful than them? Plus, I'm not the biggest fan of portrait handhelds. Miyoo Mini would start feeling cramped. I prefer landscape handhelds. With a bad economy, it's all about being as frugal as we can. ROG Ally might be better than a Steam Deck, but I'll get the cheapest Deck to save $200-$300. I think the SF2000 is going to be fun. It's a cheap handheld you can throw in a bag and not care if it breaks. I'm aware it's not great with SNES and GBA emulation. I'm fine with that. NES, Genesis, and MAME are good enough for me! I'm going to play a lot of Street Fighter II': Special Champion's Edition on the thing. I mean, ETA Prime paid $15 to get that McNugget handheld that had only Tetris. SF2000 seems way better than that.

[@DaRkLoRd-rc5yu]

I'm still not sold on tablets that much. So the cheaper the better for me. All that really matters is a good screen otherwise i'll never use it. But as a portable media player with good battery life and a nice looking screen this seems kind of perfect for me.

[@Dria-bi2ic]

I had the onn tablet pro/keyboard a few weeks ago because it went on sale at Walmart. I kept it for one day and returned it. I loved the size of it and the fact that it came with a nice keyboard case; but it constantly dropped the WiFi connection and the software was too buggy; even for a low-end budget device. I'm now typing this comment on the Fire Max 11 that I've only owned for around 4 or 5 hours, and I can already tell you that it runs extremely better than the onn tablet pro out the box. Google Play works great on it once installed, and the pen works smoothly as well. I purchased the bundle for $327 which includes the stylus, tablet, and keyboard case. I'm still testing the Max 11 out, but I completely believe that this tablet combo is definitely worth the price!

[@danieldougan269]

I like this direction for the Amazon Fire tablets. Now we need to see more productivity applications. With the stylus support, it could benefit from a killer drawing app like Procreate.

[@squ1dbird]

I guess it might be too late now, but just in case... there's no option for gesture navigation in the settings, but you can enable it through adb. it makes the gesture navbar a weird height, but if you play around with the screen dpi, you can make it the right size. and it does support otg. no video out though.

You can get the fire 10 which has the same chipset and the same amount of RAM for 80 bucks and it has a 3.5 mm headphone jack. For like a $30 premium you get wireless charging as well. I think reviewers are jumping the gun when they say this is the most powerful fire tablet ever, I mean technically it's basically equal.

[@excessmaterial]

Yeah I agree and losing the headphone jack is a huge deal too. It's such a small port to not include it's honestly ridiculous they didn't. There are many situations where using bluetooth headphones aren't as ideal and frankly I've never found a pair that were as effortlessly comfortable as my many sets of plug in earbuds.

[@tatsumaru12345]

Not having a headphone jack on say a winders tablet or apple, isnt the world's end because adapters and Bluetooth at least works with pretty low lag. Which shoot, the 2021 9th gen ipad even has a headphone jack. Android though? It's still rough. How does someone watch a movie or play a video game seriously with Bluetooth headphones on Android? ESPECIALLY if you use 2.4ghz wifi, or also have a second Bluetooth device plugged up. It's roughly a second lag. Plus USB c adapters may or may not even work. It's why when he said 'all sorts of connectivity ' I'm like wuht? No headphone jack, no native video out. 'sure you could say like the rockfish adapter. But it's compressed'

[@sarmatiko]

@@excessmaterial not having 3.5mm jack is not really an issue - USB-C DACs (based on CX31993 chip or similar, I can confirm it works for HD10 at least) only cost 5-10$ and give noticeable boost in quality and volume level. The main issue with Fire Max 11 is price, it's just not worth the extra compared to HD10 (even 2019 model) for it's main functions.

[@miller2167]

Ur wrong the max 11 is more powerful I have the fire 10 and can't play cod mobile on medium graphics but you can on the fire 11 and it scores higher then a snapdragon 720G n that's a mid grade processor

[@cryengine_x]

Err, not sure where you're getting your info, at a google the Fire Max 11 has a new CPU (Mediatek 8188, vs MT8183 in Fire HD 10) and it's WAY more powerful. Geekbench single core (by far the most important benchmark for day to day performance IMO is single core, reason why dual core entry level iPads are fast as hell and trounce low end Android tablets with 8 cores) of almost 700 for the 8188 vs ~300 for the 8173 at least according to google (I actually have a Fire Hd 10 for my security camera 10 feet away, maybe I'll pull it down and geekbench it myself, but would be more trouble if geekbench needs to be sideloaded). So in single core which again I value a lot, the Fire Max 11 is more than double as fast. Multi core was 1929 vs 1360 so also a large increase FWIW. IIRC Amazon only claimed the Fire Max Processor was around 50% faster, so they may have looked at mult core score, graphics, or simply were being conservative. All that being a long way to say yes, the Fire Max 11 has a significantly more powerful chipset LOL. As for RAM I believe the Fire Hd 10 default is 3GB, and IIRC you can get a 4GB version of the Fire HD 10 (called the Fire HD 10 Plus) but it costs more. So the 4GB default of the 11 is a nice bump there too. Fire Max 11 also has aluminum construction rather than plastic according to reviews, also a very nice increase in quality feel IMO. Of course you pay for it, starting at 229 vs 149. I'll be fascinated to see where sales land the Fire Max 11 (I'm expecting 149, but anything lower would be a cherry on top). Still, for the price, as usual, I doubt anything else comes close.

This thing running Android 11 when the WalMart tablet runs Android 13 is pretty goofy...

Fell asleep and missed the 150 prime day. Thought about getting the samsung 750g ab instead missed both.

[@butterflyalonna44]

Can you do my a favor please Can you see if Animal Crossing Pocket Camp is supported in google play? It got discontinued on the older models due to low ram.

[@BbwMafia]

Just got this brand new for 100 us, thats a good price for this tablet. 230 is high way robbery.

[@loumarcellino17Q19]

This was a great review, and I loved your presentation, thank you. May I ask please, for those of us who would like more information on the productivity use of this tablet, would you be able to do an extensive review of the stylus/note taking features of this device, and speak about such features as a split screen (if it can even be done on this)? I would like to be able to open Kindle books side by side with a notebook and take notes, even be able to highlight text from a book and drag to a notebook, if that is possible. If you have already covered this in another video, please direct me to that, I would most appreciate it! Thank you again!

Romans 6:23 For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord. Come to Jesus Christ today Jesus Christ is only way to heaven Repent and follow him today seek his heart Jesus Christ can fill the emptiness he can fill the void Heaven and hell is real cone to the loving savior today Today is the day of salvation tomorrow might be to late come to the loving savior today John 3:16-21 16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. 17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. 18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. 19 And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. 20 For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved. 21 But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God. Mark 1.15 15 And saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent ye, and believe the gospel. 2 Peter 3:9 The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance. Hebrews 11:6 6 But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him. Jesus

Any chance you tried out Steam Link from a PC in your house on this?

[@TBMartin]

Basically this tablet is nearly twice as powerful as a Nvidia Shield Pro. That's not bad at all.

[@michaelcorcoran8768]

Yeah but the fire 10 is often on sale for 80 bucks, and it has the same chipset. Same ram. And you can get that one with wireless charging. And it has a headphone jack

[@jponz85]

Dude the shield pro is like 2014 hardware. Almost 10 years ago. I wouldn't call it "impressive" lol

[@TBMartin]

@@jponz85 It's lucky we are all allowed an opinion then.

[@TBMartin]

@@michaelcorcoran8768 Where did you hear that? They don't share the same SOC

[@TBMartin]

@@michaelcorcoran8768 In fact the 11 Max has a MediaTek MT8188J. The 10 Plus has a MediaTek MT8183, so not the same SOC.

[@michaelcorcoran8768]

Same chip as fire 10. Same ram. Basically identical in power to the 10-in model which can sometimes be found for 80 bucks. With a keyboard this is over $300, you might as well get a Lenovo duet 5 or something

[@youtubeonly2866]

@etaaprime where do you get those video wallpapers pls 😢

[@pikachuwu69TTV]

Wish this tablet would come to Canada already

[@uncaringbear]

This is a good evolutionary step for the Fire tablets. I love the fact that it's pen compatible. Depending on the pen and tablet performance, it could be a great option for people who want to draw or use pens. For gaming, it looks perfectly fine. Would've liked to have seen a bit better performance with Genshin Impact, but it still looks playable. All-in-all, a really solid looking Fire tablet.

[@OOICU812]

From reviews I've seen the pen performance is laggy. In landscape mode it's very easy to accidentally tap the volume buttons while gaming. It's a decent tab, but seems a bit buggy in the software department.

[@Yates__]

Not unless I can replace FireOS. I don't trust Amazon as far as I could throw them.

[@MrJ0mmy]

Temporarily out of stock.

[@RossHouck]

I'm sorry, "Dolby Atmos"? Does Dolby not care about their brand any more? The sound from a tablet, regardless of quality, is NOT going to inspire someone to drop $700+ on a dolby speaker system.

[@Helli__]

Yeah, I doubt this thing will ever see a newer Android version, if Amazon doesn't change their update policy. I also can't understand, why they still stick to their app store, which is basically a dead horse. There's basically no productive use for these devices without the Google services or other app repositories. Sure, I can install Google services, but do I want to do that to a device which is over 200? I think there are better options out there.

[@jc_dont_push_hate]

Thank you, For this video and info on this tablet.... Can you make a comparison video on the 11 max vs 10 plus ( Amazon Tablet ) I would like to know which one is better due to the 10 plus has wireless charging and the 11 doesn't

[@kevinperez3708]

I use my fire 10 (2019) as trade-in, including, discount, money back and sale I manage to get Fire max 11 128gb no ads for $129 😊.

Could you do a video of the best settings for PS2 emulation with Aethersx2 on the fire Max 11? I just bought on on prime day for $150. I have Need for speed most wanted running on it but its not the best.
