    Why we picked this

    Premium Pick: The largest and most capable choice here, with a sharper 11-inch display, 4GB of RAM, 64GB of storage, Wi-Fi 6, and a fingerprint reader that suit heavier productivity use. It is the best option for multitasking and keyboard-based work, but Fire OS still has a more limited app selection than standard Android.
