Tablets come in various sizes and prices, and while some of the best tablets feature high-resolution, large, responsive displays, they’re very fragile. That’s where rugged tablets come into play, offering a fair compromise on the latest features, providing only the essentials in more compact and durable designs and form factors.

Samsung Galaxy Tab A9+ vs Amazon Fire Max 11

Android tablets have come a long way in just a few short years. While it’s true that the best Android tablets often reside at higher price points, that doesn’t mean the lower end has nothing to offer. Cheap Android tablets have come into their own and now offer an enjoyable and usable experience at a budget price.

For that, Samsung has a couple of up-to-the-task selections.

Samsung's newest affordable tablet, the Samsung Galaxy Tab A9+, is finally here. If you bought yours already, you're probably enjoying its big and beautiful HD screen. And if you'd like to keep your display in pristine condition, you'll need a screen protector. Yeah, we know that screen protectors aren't as fun to browse through as cases, but they're just as important.

Sporting a few upgrades from its predecessor, Samsung’s Galaxy Tab S9 Ultra was bound to be a hit. Its 14.6-inch AMOLED display, Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 CPU, and impressive battery life helped land the Tab S9 Ultra as the premium pick in the best Android tablets breakdown. If you are using this choice product, you'll want to protect it as much as possible. For that, there are the best Tab S9 Ultra-compatible cases.

Samsung has officially dropped the Galaxy Tab S9 FE and S9 FE+, and they're both exactly what you'd expect from Fan Edition versions of two of the best Android tablets. Samsung's liberal interpretation of the phrase "fan edition" apparently boils down to pared-down, less expensive versions of some of its flagship devices, and that's exactly what you're getting with the S9 FE, a more wallet-friendly but less capable version of the vanilla Tab S9.

Samsung has been quiet on Fan Edition (FE) devices over the last year or so. The company decided to skip a generation, a decision that disappointed some users who like the more affordable take on Samsung’s flagship phones and tablets. However, rumors have been swirling in recent weeks and months, and tons of Samsung Fan Edition products are being leaked. Not only have we been hearing about the Samsung Galaxy S23 FE for a long time, but renders, specs and official documents have slipped through the cracks regarding the intriguing Galaxy Buds FE. Recently, marketing renders of the Galaxy Tab S9 FE and Galaxy Tab S9 FE+ have seemingly leaked, indicating that their announcement and release is imminent.

Samsung's S-series tablets are some of the best devices on the market for those looking at cheap tablets, since they offer such a good balance of affordability and premium features at a not-so-shocking price point for a Samsung device. It's a solid choice that won't quite break the bank, but still offers everything you'd expect from Samsung devices — a durable build, impressive screen and image quality, and a responsive interface.

The Samsung Galaxy Tab S9 is one of the most powerful Android tablets on the market. Samsung charges quite the premium, but the spec sheet is impressive. In addition to its gorgeous 11-inch AMOLED display refreshing at 120Hz, the Tab S9 is powered by the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2. When you add up to 12GB of RAM, it's difficult to imagine needing more performance to accomplish even the most demanding tasks.

It's been nearly six months since we first started hearing about the Galaxy Tab S8 series and its ginormous Ultra tablet, though we only spotted the first bunch of renders back in October. Although its launch date remains a mystery, we're learning a little more about the color options for Samsung's next-gen tablets, along with new information on the notch-shaped front-facing camera found on the Tab S8 Ultra.

We're in the final hours of Prime Day now, but there's still plenty of deals to be had. If you've been in the market for a tablet — and yesterday's deals on the iPad Air didn't do it for you — there's time left to pick up some new gear. A vast selection of Samsung's tablets and accessories are on sale at Amazon, including the Tab S7 and S7+.If you're looking for our favorite of the bunch, the Tab S7 is the way to go. Though it doesn't have the AMOLED display of its big brother, at $485, it's an unbeatable value. It features a fantastic 11" 120Hz display (ignore the "12.4-inch" in the product description below — Amazon is pulling from the S7+ listing), quad speakers, and an included S Pen for taking notes on the go. If you're after extra storage, the 256GB version is $527, and the 512GB model can be yours for $595.

The market for Android tablets isn't all that strong, but Samsung's Tab series bucks the trend. Last year's Tab S7 delivered an excellent premium experience, while the Tab S7+ took Apple's iPad Pro head-on. If you've been eagerly awaiting successors to both of those tablets, a new leak suggests that this year's lineup might include three new models, each with a bigger display than the last.

If you're frequently on the go (or used to be), you know that public Wi-Fi can be a pain: asking for passwords, dealing with varying connection quality, and worrying about your privacy can be a drag. LTE-connected devices cut out all that junk, but they can be pricey. Enter this deal: today, you can pick up a Galaxy Tab S6 with LTE for $550, more than $200 off its normal price.The S6 has a Snapdragon 855, six gigs of RAM, and a 10.5-inch, 1600p display. It also comes with an S Pen that snaps magnetically to the back of the tablet — though, notably, it does not include the keyboard cover it's pictured with in its Amazon listing. This model is LTE compatible on Verizon, too, so you don't need to rely on sketchy public Wi-Fi.Note that you don't actually get that keyboard cover here.

Samsung more or less rules the non-Fire Android tablet space, offering a wide range of options at varying price points. And right now, you can cop a discount on several of its models, all the way from the humble A7 on up to the super-premium S7+.

Android tablets have a tough time competing at the high end; iPads more or less single-handedly dominate that space. But if you're looking to spend a couple hundred bucks on something to watch Netflix in bed, you're probably not shopping Apple. You're probably looking for something like Samsung's latest budget tablet, the Galaxy Tab A7: it's cheap, it's got a nice screen and speakers, and the battery lasts for days. There's not a lot to dislike here.

Samsung still believes in large-form Android tablets

Samsung is one of the only remaining companies still putting out new Android tablets — at least, those worth buying. Earlier this year, rumors pointed to a large-screen refresh of the Tab S6. New renders of the upcoming S7 tablet were released online just last week. Now there's another early look available at the Tab S7 line, this time showcasing the plus-sized variant, the Galaxy Tab S7+.

The Android tablet ecosystem isn't nearly as vibrant as Apple's, but that hasn't stopped companies like Samsung from trying to make it work for them. The South Korean giant has honed the tablet experience (within Android's limitations), and now you can reap the rewards. Pick up the Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 for an all-time low of 8 (2 off) right now on Amazon.The Galaxy Tab S4 features a 10.5" Super AMOLED display, a mighty S Pen, DeX for productivity, and Dolby Atmos for cinematic surround sound. When we reviewed the device last year, one of our biggest gripes was the inflated price tag, a barrier that's ultimately eliminated by today's discount. However, keep in mind that each color and storage option for the Tab S4 results in variable savings; if you want the cheapest model, you'll have to reach for the Tab S4 with 64GB in black.
