Still can’t afford the high-end Galaxy Tab S9 or Tab S9 Plus even after their latest (and greatest to date) Amazon discounts? The two’s FE-branded “cousins” might just be the best budget tablets for you right now at excellent markdowns of their own both with and without an obligatory trade-in.
If you’d rather go down the latter path towards a jumbo-sized Android-powered bargain, Amazon is unsurprisingly your top option for an unprecedented price cut at the time of this writing as well. The e-commerce giant is letting you save a very solid 70 bucks on the smaller 10.9-inch Galaxy Tab S9 FE in both 128 and 256GB storage configurations and a few different colorways, while the 12.4-inch Tab S9 FE Plus is discounted by a hefty $85 from a $599.99 list price with the lower amount of local digital hoarding room in a silver hue only.
Released just around three months ago, Samsung‘s newest “regular” iPad and iPad Air alternatives have obviously been sold at special prices with no strings attached and no special requirements a few times before, but all those previous discounts have inevitably topped up at $50 or so.
Granted, you’re not looking at saving a lot more money than that today, but any extra buck can make a world of difference for a bargain hunter on an especially tight budget after a… difficult holiday season. These deeper-than-ever price cuts should also help Samsung better compete against such bang-for-buck champions as the Lenovo Tab P12 (2023), OnePlus Pad, and Google Pixel Tablet.
The always handy S Pen included with the Galaxy Tab S9 FE and Tab S9 FE+ as standard might be the key strength of the two mid-rangers in their head-to-head battle with all those other great mid-end tablets mentioned above, although their smooth 90Hz IPS LCD screens are definitely no pushovers either.
Then you have an Exynos 1380 processor fully and undeniably capable of delivering a satisfying level of raw power at these record low prices, as well as pretty much the exact same premium designs as the Tab S9 and Tab S9 Plus.
Finally, Samsung’s software support is likely to be unrivaled in the long run as far as the entire Galaxy Tab S9 family is concerned, putting the cherry on top of two sweeter-than-sweet new Amazon promotions.
