The Alexa Tablet 11 is the entertainment model in Amazon's new Android lineup. Amazon lists it from $329.99 with 8GB of memory and 64GB of storage, in Graphite, Amethyst and Matcha. The 11-inch 2.5K display has 276 pixels per inch, 90Hz scrolling and a 16:10 shape suited to video. An 8-core processor, dual Dolby Atmos speakers and up to 15 hours of video playback round out the hardware. The bigger change from Amazon's older Fire tablets is software: it runs Android with the full Google Play Store, so YouTube, Netflix and Gmail install normally, alongside Prime Video, Kindle and Audible. The Kindle reading mode silences notifications and reduces blue light. Limits: 64GB fills quickly with downloaded shows, Amazon has not stated an Android upgrade policy, and the launch announcement mentions no pen support for this model, so note-takers should look at the S10 Lite instead.
