The 2021 tabs (10 and 10 Plus) run on Fire OS 7, based on Android 9. The Play Services package (the four Google things Fire Toolbox installs to get Play Store) still works. I had an old 2017 Fire 10 that I accidentally reset recently, it updated but I was able to reinstall Play Services.
The 2022 tabs (8) and this new Max 11 run Fire OS 8, based on Android 11. You would think that's great, and it probably is, but Amazon monkeyed with the Android APIs to (or which had the effect of) breaking Play Store and Play Services. They might install, but they won't run right and certain apps that use Play Services will crash.
You have to install a workaround called Aurora Store to install the apps. This seems like some kind of APK repository.
Here's a summary

Having a functioning Play Store and Play Services was the point of all this, until somebody figures it out I would look at other alternatives for an 11 inch tab.

So if you buy this tablet, you pay the entire amount now.
As to your question, it depends on what you trade in and it's value.

That's not 100% true. SOME people get instant trade in...some don't. I have had multiple times when I got instant, then didn't, then got it again. Right now it's say instant trade in coupon for 20% for me.
Also, I know that it depends on the trade in...but I was asking if it's taking 20% off the 150 price or the 230 price.

Sweet, thanks!
PROBLEM....I just traded in my $30 fire tablet, the $30 gift card showed up instantly but the 20% discount does not show, despite the confirmation e-mail that it was instant. Grrrrrrrr.
