The Amazon Kindle Tablets are very restricted Android tablets. They are low 
cost. Unfortunately, the screen response, at least on mine, which is four years 
old, is quite laggy. I usually need to tap with extra-firm pressure in order to 
get the touch screen to react.

Also, Voice View is extremely locked down (not configurable or customisable).
There are many Android tablets which are significantly better than the Amazon 
Kindle tablets. Some are not much more expensive than the Amazon.
Personally, I will be upgrading to the next Samsung flagship tablet, the one 
which will replace the Samsung Tab S6. It has several features which I want. 
Also, I like having products from both Android and iOS.

I currently have an iPad pro 10.5 and a Samsung Note 10 + 5G.

I am planning to go to an iPhone 12 Pro Max, and the Samsung Tab S7.

I want Braille Screen Input and the significantly better selection and copying 
features in iOS. I am only frustrated that it appears that Apple will most 
likely not be upgrading to the USBC port from the Lightning port.
The Samsung Tab S6 allows Samsung Dex to run directly on the tablet, which 
allows up to 5 apps to be open in different windows on the tablet 
simultaneously, and allows me to do computer and file related tasks which iOS 
and iPadOS do not allow.
