Samsung’s tablet gives you a lot more for less
Your first stop shopping Black Friday tablet deals is probably the Apple iPad, but don’t sleep on Samsung’s excellent Galaxy Tab tablets, especially this Galaxy Tab S9 FE, currently on sale for the lowest price ever. I reviewed the larger Galaxy Tab S9 FE Plus, and I think most people would be happier with Samsung’s tablet than even Apple’s svelte iPad Air.
Both tablets are currently on sale for Black Friday. The iPad Air is available for $499 / £452 from Amazon, and that’s a great savings knocking $100 / £140+ off the full retail price. The Galaxy Tab S9 FE is also on sale at Amazon for only $299.99 / £374.17, which drops the price by $150 / £75. I’d pick the Galaxy Tab over Apple’s M2-equipped iPad any day, and twice on Black Friday.
Sure, the iPad Air is powerful, but for what? The Galaxy Tab S9 FE (and the larger Galaxy Tab S9 FE Plus) have better software for actually getting things done, like working between two documents or browsing the web while on a video chat. Samsung even gives you the S Pen for free, while Apple charges extra for the Apple Pencil.

My favorite feature on the Galaxy Tab S9 FE is its water resistant and durable design. It’s not a thin as an Air, but you can get it wet – heck, you can even take it for a dip in the pool. It’s IP68 water resistant, so it’s better for the beach, and if it gets dirty you can rinse it in the sink. That’s pretty amazing for a tablet.
These are the best prices I’ve seen on the Galaxy Tab S9 FE and Galaxy Tab S9 FE Plus since they launched in 2023, and it’s unclear if Samsung will offer a Galaxy Tab S10 FE as a replacement. If you need a serious tablet that is seriously tough, this is the one I’d buy.
