![]() Previous Fire tablets-like mine-need to connect to keyboards via Bluetooth, which is inconsistent and slow on the best of days and must be charged separately. A microSD slot lets you expand your media storage, and the keyboard now connects via pogo pins, which allow it to charge and communicate. There’s a fingerprint reader on the side power button, which is a first for a Fire tablet. It could be if Amazon updated Fire OS to access some of the tools in Android 12L, which is optimized for tablets, but Fire OS is based on an outdated version of Android that lacks any tablet-friendly features. The 16:9 format signals that the first priority here is consuming movies (and reading, if you rotate to portrait mode), but it’s not great for productivity. The 11-inch LCD screen has a nice 2,000 x 1,200-pixel resolution that’s quite glare-prone, but no worse than other tablets. That is to say, for $100 on sale, with some slight modifications, the Fire 10 is indeed capable of being useful for work, which is a pretty great deal.įor that reason, I was excited to try the Fire Max 11-what’s not to like about a more powerful model, this one made of real metal instead of cheap plastic? The Fire Max 11 delivers what Amazon is promising, which is to say it’s by far the best Fire tablet the company has ever made. I have modified the Fire tablet’s software, using the ADB developer tool to turn off all of Amazon’s apps and install those I need to work ( Vivaldi and Termux), but the Fire 10 is certainly able to handle my needs as a writer. It’s my main writing tool when I leave the house (or RV in my case) and half the time when I’m at home. Ones like the one attached with circle at the end seem to work well on Samsung A tablets and Fire Tables.Lest you think I have some pretentious dislike for Amazon’s hardware, I am typing this review on a Fire 10 with a Finite keyboard. ![]() These are capacitive stylus pens with the clear round disc that glides across the screen letting you see the tip of your pen for placement. I recently tried to order another (as I lost the part of the cap that clips onto my cover) and Amazon no longer sells my brand, "Aibow", but I found another brand and ordered it. The bluetooth pens are pretty much worthless but the one I have used for ages is great. If you use OneNote, you can also draw directly in the app, but as you said, I have found issues with that. I have used the app for drawing house measurements for our business and once exported, I download from Onedrive, crop the drawing and add it to our estimates in both Word and LibreOffice Draw with no issues. You can even "share" them on Onedrive, via email, save to gallery, etc. If you are talking about handwritten notes, I have been using my Fire HD 10 (2019) with a non-bluetooth disc-style pen in Inkcredible and have no issues.
