Amazon Prime Day next week will officially arrive on July 16th, but we’re already starting to see some good deals pop up. Amazon Fire Max 11 the tablet is down to $140 as part of the company Prime Day discounts. The large slate, normally $230, is now $90 off — exactly what you should be spending on Amazon Fire Max 11 keyboard case.
The Fire Max 11 has, as you might have guessed, a sharp 11-inch display with a resolution of 2000×1200 pixels. Its octa-core CPU should be more than enough for streaming media and viewing maps, and it also has 4GB of RAM. The Fire Max 11 comes with either 64GB or 128GB of storage, and you can expand that up to 1TB using an optional microSD card. There are 8-megapixel front and rear cameras for video calling as well as 1080p video recording. With around 14 hours of battery life, the Fire Max 11 should be a great summer travel companion.
In Our experience with the Fire Max 11, we found it felt more like a premium tablet compared to Amazon’s cheaper and kid-friendly Fire line. “With slimmer bezels, a higher-end aluminum build, and a weight of just over a pound, it’s also designed for those looking to do some work and multitasking,” writes Engadget’s Cherlynn Low.
Pairing the Fire Max 11 with this new low price makes sense Amazon’s $90 keyboard case. There is a kickstand to support the tablet and it offers a decent typing and touchpad experience. You can also add Amazon’s $35 Stylus Pen for writing scribbles and notes. With all these accessories, the Fire Max 11 can be almost as productive as an iPad or similarly equipped Surface.
