Samsung tablets have dominated the market (and provided the best user experience) at least since the Galaxy Tab S8 series came out in 2022. With the release of the new Galaxy Tab S9 series, the S8 Ultra has gotten cheaper, and Samsung has released more of the “best tablets” for Android users.
If you’re looking to pick one up, right now the Galaxy Tab S9 Ultra, Galaxy Tab S9 FE+, and Galaxy Tab S9 FE are all $100 off on Amazon. Here is which one is right for you.
The Samsung Galaxy Tab S9 FE
Samsung makes FE versions, or “Fan Edition,” of certain cell phones, earphones, and tablet devices. Think of them as devices that integrate better within the Samsung ecosystem and have features that the company’s biggest “fans” have requested. The Galaxy Tab S9 FE is one of them, and also the budget version of the latest Tab S9 series.
This sale covers the wifi-only version, so it’s not compatible with cellphone carriers. It comes with 128GB or 256GB (both are $100 off their respective list prices), and you can always add more storage with a microSD card. The tablets have 6GB or 8GB of RAM, and both are rated IP68 for water and dust resistance, with 10.9-inch screens, an 8MP front camera and 12MP rear camera, and a battery life of up to 18 hours.
The Samsung Galaxy Tab S9 FE+
If you want more premium experience, the Galaxy Tab S9 FE+ offers it. The S9 FE+ has a bigger 12.4-inch screen with a higher 2560 by 1600 resolution. It has the same Samsung Exynos 1380 processor and Android 13 operating system as the S9. The camera is also the same, save that it also offers an ultra-wide view for both the rear and front camera. The battery will provide up to 20 hours of juice, and the you can choose between 8GB of RAM in the 128GB storage version, or 12GB of RAM in the 256GB model. The S9 FE+ is an “excellent” tablet according to our pals at PCMag, and well worth the upgrade if you are looking for the best midrange Android tablet on the market.
The Samsung Galaxy Tab S9 Ultra
The best tablet for Android power users is the Samsung Galaxy Tab S9 Ultra, but you’ll have to pony up $1,200 to get it. This S9 Ultra tablet comes with 12GB of RAM, 512GB of storage, the largest AMOLED 14.6-inch display of the bunch, with 2560 by 1600 pixels of resolution, a Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chip processor, and wifi 6E. It comes with the Samsung S pen, plus a Samsung Book Keyboard cover. There are two 12MP front-facing cameras and two 13MP rear cameras, with an 8MP ultra wide on both the front and rear.
