Not heard of them producing a tablet. Amazon tablets are kinda tied to their ecosystem. Huawei makes an inexpensive tablet.

Yes, poor selection. Highest rated seems to be the Samsung Galaxy Tab A 10.1 64 GB for $290. Only Android 9 though; not sure it can be upgraded to 10.

Going to the Chromebook store below, and selecting Type=convertible, Medium screen, and Google Play Store enabled, I get many options ranging from $359 to $1200. So it appears that it's not really necessary to buy a tablet after all.

I have the first Galaxy Tab S. It only went to Android 6, and it's really sluggish. The newer S series are faster, but are also very expensive. There is the A series, but the display is really downgraded (as are the other specs) compared to the S series.

Yes, I might have a slightly older model. It has a pen and WQXGA screen, and does not seem overly sluggish, but only Android 5.1.1.
