An eleven-inch screen is large enough to share an episode without turning the tablet into a piece of furniture. The Alexa Tablet 11 combines that middle-ground size with Google Play and Amazon's own apps. It's a particularly sensible step up from the Tablet 8 when two people will look at the screen together.

Display & Audio

- 90 Hz
Amazon's 16:10 display suits streaming video. The 90 Hz ceiling is more relevant while scrolling through menus and comics than while watching a film recorded at a lower frame rate. Dual speakers let you watch without pairing an accessory, though headphones are still the more considerate choice on a shared sofa.
Lon.TV streamed video with a browser open beside it on the adult 8 GB/64 GB Tablet 11. Lon.TV occasionally interrupted navigation by brushing the narrow bezel, a useful consideration if you often hold a tablet with one hand. 1
Performance & Software
- MediaTek MT8189
- 8 GB
The 8 GB of RAM serves the apps you have open. Downloaded games and videos occupy storage instead, so choose capacity according to how often the tablet leaves Wi-Fi. Google Play makes the 11 a more flexible purchase for families that already use a mix of Amazon services and third-party Android apps.
Family Features
Amazon sells Kids Tablet 11 packages with different cases for younger and older children. The parental tools and included year of Kids+ are meaningful differences from the standard package. Work out who will manage the child's profile, and whether the family wants the subscription after the first year, before choosing a themed case.
Alternatives
The Tablet 8 is easier to slip into a small bag. The 12 Pro's taller 3:2 screen is a better workspace for a document or a drawing. The 11 sits between them with proportions better suited to a family movie.
Verdict
Choose the 11 when shared entertainment and ordinary Android apps will both see regular use. The smaller model is a better reading companion for someone who rarely puts a tablet on a stand.
