It's made of metal and feels much more like a quality device than any other Fire. My experience using it for several weeks made me a little sad to go back to my very plasticky Fire 10. It's also noticeably faster than the Fire 10, though not enough that I would feel compelled to upgrade. And one potential deal breaker to be aware of, the keyboard and case are not self-supporting. To be productive with the productivity bundle you need to put in on a flat surface.
-The keyboard, while useable, is on the small side. I had a lot of trouble with the trackpad, which constantly accidentally clicked things when I brushed it with my palms while typing. Again, it's not bad enough to be a deal breaker, but it's more annoying than it should be at this price point. And that's the core problem with the Fire Max 11—it's not good enough for the money Amazon is charging.

Again, it's not bad enough to be a deal breaker, but it's more annoying than it should be at this price point. The stylus is laughably bad. Luckily for users there are almost no apps available in the Amazon App store that would make you want to use the stylus. And that's the core problem with the Fire Max 11—it's just not good enough for the money Amazon is charging.
The main problem with the Fire Max 11 is that to use it as more than a firehose blasting your eyeballs with Prime content you'll have to spend $330. Given that you can get a 9th-generation iPad on Amazon for $269 and a Bluetooth keyboard for $30 more... why would anyone buy a Fire Max 11? I don't know.
