Amazon’s latest tablets finally come with the Google Play Store baked right in
The top-of-the-line Alexa Tablet 12 Pro will be available with an optional Nanomatte finish for reduced display glare.
Amazon has finally updated its line of tablets to include the Google Play Store, marking a significant departure from previous models. The company has unveiled three new variants: the Alexa Tablet 12 Pro, the Tablet 11, and the Tablet 8. These latest iterations boast a premium aluminum unibody design, a first for Amazon's tablet lineup.
The Alexa Tablet 12 Pro, the company's flagship offering, will be available with a Nanomatte finish to reduce glare for users. Amazon has also introduced 8.7-inch and 11-inch tablets tailored specifically for children, with age-appropriate models for those aged three and six. This new range of Amazon tablets will run on Fire OS, a modified version of Android, but unlike previous models, they now provide unrestricted access to Google Mobile Services (GMS), including the Google Play Store.
This development signifies Amazon's response to long-standing limitations within its Fire tablet range.
