 For that reason I was excited to try the Fire 11 Max, what's not to like about a more powerful tablet, this one made of real metal instead of cheap plastic? The Fire 11 Max does deliver what Amazon is promising here. It's is by far the best Fire tablet you've ever used. 
 
-The base model is $229 which gets you an 11-inch tablet with a nice, 2000×1200 pixel 60 Hz display, 4 gigabytes of RAM, and 64 gigabytes of storage. You can get one with 128-gigabyte SSD for another $tk. The chip is a Mediatek MT8188J, an 8-core processor. Those specs put it firmly in the middle of the Android tablet range, more powerful than its Fire siblings, but certainly no OnePlus or Samsung level tablet. See our guide to the best tablets for our picks on higher end devices.

-For Amazon though, this qualifies as a high end tablet, relative to the rest of the Fire line. It's made of metal and feels much more like a quality device than any other Fire. Throw in the very nice keyboard, cover, and stylus (which bumps the price to $330).
+There's a fingerprint reader is on the side power button, which is a first for Fire tablet. There's a MicroSD slot so you can expand your media storage and the keyboard now connects via pogo pins which allow it to charge and communicate. Previous Fire tablets like mine need to connect to keyboards via Bluetooth, which is inconsistent and slow on the best of days. The Fire 11 Max also supports Wi-Fi 6 and has front and rear 8 megapixel cameras, making it a better video chat device as well.

+Throw in the very nice keyboard, cover, and stylus and you have something that really is powerful enough to be used for work. The problem is that to get all that 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 11 Max? It's a good tablet, but it's not anywhere near as powerful as even the base model iPad, and it doesn't even pretend to be anywhere near as useful.

+The reason you should buy an iPad in that scenario comes down to software: Fire OS, Amazon's proprietary fork of Android is terrible. It's always been terrible and as far as I can tell, it likely always will be terrible. It's sole purpose is to get you to consume Amazon content. It works well for that too, you'll have no trouble finding all your favorite Amazon Prime features through Fire OS. If you want to do anything else though you'll quickly find yourself fighting Fire OS to get it done, which is why the iPad, or [Lenovo's Tab P11](https://www.wired.com/gallery/the-best-tablets/#6436b7a1b084d83a4bb0ac97)), remain a better investment at these prices.

 but having done so, I have no plans to upgrade. The extra power isn't noticeable to me unless I use them side by side.
