I am not sure that I am qualified to write a review of this guide, but I will discuss my experience in reading the guide.
I had an Amazon Fire 10 Tablet that suddenly stopped working and I purchased an Amazon Fire Max 11 as a replacement. I've had 4 years of experience with using a Fire Tablet. I don't use my Fire Tablet for productivity. I use it as an e-reader, especially for books with color illustrations. I also use the Fire Tablet for browsing the internet. Therefore, I did not purchase the accessories, which are items available to purchase and used as additions to the tablet. In Chapters 2 and 3, the accessories, like the keyboard and stylus pen, are explained in the Max 11 guide with enough detail and with excellent illustrations to get things set up and working. But I have concluded, for myself, that if I wanted a tablet for productivity, it would probably be better to buy a different brand. Amazon tablets are not compatible for school use, so a Chrome notebook would be better for students. Therefore, chapters 2 and 3 of the guide were not relevant to me.
Chapter 1 has some valuable advice for setting up the new Fire Tablet and getting it customized. There was one instruction on how to remove the search bar on the lock screen that my Max 11 lacks the ability to do, but all of the instructions are easy to follow and there are excellent illustrations.
I do wish someone would give instructions for how to set up the Max 11 by using Alexa or tell users that it can't be done because I have been looking for those instructions - they are missing from the guide. The Amazon tech person told me that I could not transfer my data from the old Fire Tablet to the new one because I didn't use Alexa, and set up my Max 11 manually, and I was and am very confused/frustrated by that.
Chapter 4 does have excellent instructions for installing the Google Play Store. I did that on my Fire 10 Tablet. However, I made the decision not to install Google Play Store apps on my new Max 11. The tablet has a browser that allows me to access my grocery delivery, Google, my email, and other websites that I use. Chapter 4 does have some interesting tips in it that I found useful in knowing how to operate my new Fire Max 11 Tablet. Useful tips that I don't use also include using a VPN and all the detailed instructions for setting up the Fire Max 11 Tablet for Child profiles and Parent Profiles. I don't consider the Max 11 tablet something that I would give or share with a child because my Max 11 Tablet, with the cover, weighs 1 pound 9 ounces. With the thin cover edges, the tablet could cause some damage to skin and feet if dropped. I'm not so sure it's all that that sturdy for rough handling.
Chapter 5's discussion of the operating system is a short, interesting description of the operating system. The short paragraph about the camera's HEIF format for photographs explained enough for me to go searching the internet on how to convert photographs to JPEG format. I was able to download a file convertor app from the Amazon App Store that worked for me. However, I don't plan to use the camera - the picture I took of a blue bird came out with a green bird!
Chapter 6 is all about Alexa, including troubleshooting. Because I have no smart home accessories, and have stopped using Alexa, I guess this extensive chapter with everything you need to know about Alexa, although not relevant to me, is something to keep in mind in case I have need for explanations, or decide to use it.
If you read this review, you can see that I am not the most knowledgeable person for reviewing this guide book. But I hope it helps a little for potential readers to see what kind of information is in it. It's worth the price and you will learn something.
