Specs-wise, Amazon says the tablet has an eight-core 2.2 GHz processor and 4GB of RAM and should have no issue playing mobile games like Fortnite or streaming an entire season of “The Sopranos” in one sitting. It’s also available with 128GB of storage. As far as accessories go, Amazon is offering what is called the “Productivity Bundle” which includes a stylus and keyboard cover for a total of $329.99 including the tablet itself. Apple’s offering, the 1st generation Apple Pencil costs $99 and the Magic Keyboard Folio costs $249. The Fire Max 11 will also feature fingerprint reading technology to unlock the tablet and, of course, works with most existing Amazon and Alexa-connected pieces of technology.
On an ecologically friendly note, Amazon’s announcement blog post for the device says that it’s made out of 55% recycled aluminum and 34% recycled plastic. According to Apple, the 10th generation iPad is constructed out of “26% recycled or renewable content.”
Amazon’s store page for the Fire Max 11 states that it will be released on June 14th.
