Amazon launches Alexa Tablet 12 Pro with Android apps and Play Store access
Amazon has released the new Alexa Tablet 12 Pro, a premium device that includes Google's Play Store and Android applications.
New strategy for Amazon tablets
The company is changing its approach to tablet production this year. Previous Fire tablets focused on media consumption without access to major apps like WhatsApp or YouTube. The new lineup highlights Amazon's services while offering full Android functionality.
Design and specifications of the device
The 12-inch model features a thin aluminum unibody design with a large display. It measures 6.5mm in thickness and weighs 1.21 pounds. Optional accessories include a keyboard and a stylus to complete the look.
Market positioning against competitors
This tablet squares off directly against the iPad Air and Pro models. The device looks nearly identical to Apple's tablets at first glance. It aims to provide great value even though Android apps on big screens remain limited.
