In a separate post we covered smartphone deals, here we will focus on tablets. These will be mostly Android as Apple isn’t really taking part in the Black Friday sales, but there are a couple of Windows tablets in here as well. The Samsung Galaxy Tab S10+ launched recently with the Dimensity 9300+ chipset, which was pretty much the only upgrade. The Samsung Galaxy Tab S9+ is $150 cheaper and while the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 isn’t as fast as the Dimensity, it’s hardly slow. And you get the same 12.4” 120Hz OLED display with S Pen and IP68 rating. ...
