With the holidays around the corner, the need for mobile entertainment gets very real. Whether you need to keep the kids entertained and out of your hair during your family road trip, binge watch some Netflix, or even indulge yourself in some adrenaline-fueled mobile gaming action.
To guide your shopping, we’ve rounded up our top three Expert picks from Samsung’s Galaxy Tab range for you to consider.
Easily Samsung’s most powerful tablet ever made, the top of the range Galaxy Tab S7+ features an incredible 12.4-inch Super AMOLED screen with a 2800 x 1752 resolution and a 120Hz refresh rate. This high-end tablet features ample processing power and then some, with its robust Snapdragon 865 Plus Chipset and 8 GB of RAM. It is available in a 128 GB or a 256 GB storage model.
The Galaxy Tab S7+ comes bundled with Samsung’s S Pen stylus and Book Cover Keyboard to make it very capable when it comes to matters of productivity.
Another extremely strong competitor in the South Korean’s tablet range, the Galaxy Tab S5e has been built with media consumption and gaming in mind. It features a 10.5-inch version of the same Super AMOLED screen as the Galaxy Tab S7+, which displays rich, vibrant colours with excellent contrast.
When it comes to performance, the Galaxy Tab S5e is equipped to handle gaming with ease. It is powered by a 2.0 GHz Snapdragon 670 Octa-Core Chipset and either 4 or 6 GB of RAM (depending on model) and for those concerned by storage size, it comes in 64 or 128 GB models. Of course this space can always be expanded up 1 TB with a MicroSD card. It also promises up to 15 hours of battery life, so there should be no need to lug around the old power-bank.
Samsung’s Galaxy Tab A range has been king of the hill in the budget category for some time now. Featuring a good, clear 10.1-inch screen, excellent sound quality and ample battery life, it is a very well suited and affordable all-rounder that is great for gaming and entertainment in general.
While previous models in the range suffered from some dubious build quality, the latest generation of the Galaxy Tab A has seen some serious upgrades including a metallic body that both looks and feels great. The bezel has also been reduced to a bare minimum which adds to the premium aesthetic of the device.
In terms of technical specs, the Galaxy Tab A features Samsung’s 1.8 GHz Exynos 7940 Octa-Core Chipset and either 2 or 3 GB of RAM. It comes in three storage size options: 32, 64, and 128 GB, all of which can be expanded to 1 TB with a MicroSD card. You can even connect to an external SSD for further storage, which is something gamers will really appreciate.
