amazon use a heavily customised fork of Android, true. Always have, always will, but side-installing google services overcomes much of that. and they cant be beaten on price, especially if you wait for amazon sale events

Huawei is actually closer to pure android than samsung, and does not come with anything like the amount of useless non-removeable bloatware that samsung ship ( in my opinion). My media pad is running android 9, it is approved for full 1920x 1080 HD by both amazon and netflix ( no samsung can claim that, you get one but not the other...)

the issues Huawei have with USA has greatly depressed the prices of their tablets. so you get a samsung-like experience at 1/2 the price of a samsung, with an insignificant risk of being spied upon?

for pure reading experience, maybe samsung AMOLED is better, I can only repeat that i could never see any diffference btween Samsung Then Lenovo, & now HUAWEI. maybe others with better eyes can.... but with the money you save you can afford to also have a decent Kobo e-ink for night time reading. { that's what I currently do, I use tablets in the day time, then switch to my Kobo Libra for any late evening reading )
