The Samsung Galaxy Tab A9+ has an 11-inch display, upgraded chipset, and quad speakers that actually make YouTube sound decent.

The Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite is what happens when a tablet decides to be helpful instead of just pretty.

Apple iPad Deals

Apple, its iPads, and its discounts don’t mess around. The Apple iPad with the new 11-inch model runs on the A16 chip, has a gorgeous Liquid Retina display, and packs just enough power to flirt with laptop territory. It’s great for FaceTime, sketching, working on the go, or just doomscrolling in 120Hz clarity. Our experts always rave about these products too much. Eric Zeman rated the Apple iPad (11th Gen) as “Excellent” in his review and confirmed it offers tremendous value for an iPad. It’s currently $299, 14% off, and while that’s not the biggest discount, it’s the lowest price we’ve seen on this model so far. 50 bucks is 50 bucks!

The new iPad Pro with the M4 chip is basically Apple saying, “your laptop looks tired.” It’s absurdly thin, ridiculously fast, and built with the kind of screen that makes every other display in your house feel dim. This is the one built for Apple Intelligence, which means it’s ready for all the AI-powered wizardry Apple’s about to roll out. You’ve got 256GB of space, a stunning Ultra Retina XDR display, pro-level cameras, and yes, the LiDAR scanner is still here doing… whatever futuristic thing it does. Our expert Eric Zeman reviewed this one in 2024 and said it “delivers everything you’d expect from a high-end tablet, and then some.” It’s $899 right now, which is $100 off the sticker price. Not a huge drop you might think, but for Apple, this is basically generous.
