Other Tablets to Consider<\/h2>\n

We test tons of tablets every year. Here are a few others we like, just not as much as our picks above.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Apple iPad Pro (M4, 2024) for $899<\/a>:<\/strong> Save yourself some cash and buy the 2024 iPad Pro<\/a> instead of the latest model. Just make sure you actually buy it at a decent discount. There are two size options\u201411 or 13 inches<\/a>\u2014and both are insanely thin and light, enhanced by brilliantly bright OLED displays with 120-Hz refresh rates<\/a>. They’re the only iPad models with Face ID for authentication, and sport the nano-texture glass add-on to reduce glare\u2014a must-have for anyone frequently using an iPad outside or near a window. They offer MacBook-level performance thanks to the M4 chipset, and you can take advantage of the new multitasking features in iPadOS 26.<\/p>\n

Samsung Galaxy Tab S10 Series for $780<\/a>:<\/strong> Samsung’s previous-gen Galaxy Tab S10 series consists of the Tab S10+<\/a> and Tab S10 Ultra<\/a>\u2014but Samsung unveiled<\/a> the Tab S10 FE<\/a> and Tab S10 FE+ in 2025<\/a>, lower-cost versions that start at $500, as well as the Tab S10 Lite ($320)<\/a>. I haven’t tested the cheaper models yet. I did test the Galaxy Tab S10+ and S10 Ultra, and both are on the bigger end of tablet sizes. They’re hard not to like\u2014they perform exceptionally well, have multi-day battery life, promise long software support, and the displays are vibrant, smooth, and sharp. If the Tab S11 series is too pricey, this is an easy way to save and still get a very powerful Android tablet; they’re really not that disimilar from the latest models.<\/p>\n

\"Boost<\/picture><\/span><\/div>\n

Boost Celero 5G Tab.<\/p>\n

Boost Celero 5G Tab for $200<\/a>:<\/strong> I didn’t particularly love using the 10.95-inch Boost Celero 5G Tab\u2014performance can be stuttery, making it a little annoying to operate\u2014but it’s $200 and perfectly fine for entertainment, whether that’s playing some very lightweight games or catching up on Netflix. You can only buy it on Boost, meaning you might be able to get it for even less if you bundle it with your Boost data plan. Since it has 5G, you can add a cellular plan for always-on connectivity. That’s really this tablet’s calling card, because you’ll be hard-pressed to find a cheap tablet with built-in cellular radios. If you don’t want to have to connect to Wi-Fi or tether from your phone, the Celero is a decent option, especially considering the cheapest iPad with cellular<\/a> will still set you back more than $400.<\/p>\n

Lenovo Tab Plus.<\/p>\n

Lenovo Tab Plus for $195<\/strong><\/a>: There are a lot of cheap Android tablets on the internet, and I urge you to be careful with what you buy. If Amazon’s Fire tablets don’t interest you (see below), consider Lenovo’s Tab Plus<\/a>. I used it for a month for pure entertainment. The 11.5-inch screen is nice and big compared to a phone screen, yet it’s portable enough for travel. The built-in kickstand is excellent and should be standard on all tablets. It’s not the snappiest, but the performance was more than adequate. While the software is largely fine, on rare occasions, a few preinstalled apps caused full-screen ads to pop up on the screen (one was for \u201cvirus protection\u201d). It’s crazy that Lenovo would allow that kind of garbage to show up, but the easy fix is to uninstall all the bloatware.<\/p>\n

Google Pixel Tablet.<\/p>\n

Google Pixel Tablet With Dock for $399<\/a>:<\/strong> Google’s Pixel Tablet (7\/10, WIRED Recommends)<\/a> is part tablet, part smart display. This 11-inch slate is like a big Pixel phone<\/a>, with a sharp LCD screen, good speakers, and slick software. It runs pretty well thanks to the Tensor G2 processor inside. However, it comes with a hub, so when you’re done using it as a tablet, you can magnetically dock it to start recharging automatically. This hub doubles as a speaker, and since the Pixel Tablet is the first tablet to support Google’s Cast technology natively, you can cast music or shows to it from your phone or laptop, resulting in better sound quality from the system. When you’re not using it, you can turn the display into a screensaver of the Google Home Hub panel, allowing you to see and control your smart home devices at any moment. It features multi-user support with up to eight profiles, so every family member can switch to a personalized profile, securely locked via fingerprint. I don’t think it’s worth the MSRP anymore, so try to catch it on sale.<\/p>\n

OnePlus Pad 2.<\/p>\n

OnePlus Pad 2 for $350<\/a>:<\/strong> OnePlus is still selling the Pad 2<\/a>, which is the 2024 tablet and predecessor to the current Pad 3. The 12.1-inch screen isn’t as big, and performance is a small step below due to the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chipset inside. Still, that’s plenty powerful to handle most apps and games. You’ll have a hard time finding accessories (like the keyboard), but if the Pad 3 is too pricey, this one’s not a bad buy.<\/p>\n

Honor MagicPad 2 for \u00a3360<\/a>:<\/strong> This classy tablet is not sold in the US. Quite similar to the OnePlus Pad 2 we recommend above, it boasts a truly gorgeous OLED display with impressive specs (3K resolution, 1,600 nits, 144-Hz refresh rate) that are generally unavailable at this price. Paired with the eight speakers, watching movies and gaming on this tablet is a pleasure. The stylus and keyboard are great (I love the handwriting and formula recognition), but they don\u2019t seem to be available in the UK. I found Honor\u2019s AI features, like Magic Portal, which gets good at predicting what you want to do, very useful, maybe more so on a tablet than a phone. Battery life is good, and charging is speedy (66 watts). The only real weakness here is the limited processing power, which can\u2019t match something like an iPad (though you will pay a lot more for an equivalent Apple device). \u2014Simon Hill<\/em><\/p>\n

Tablet Accessories<\/h2>\n

\"Satechi<\/picture><\/span><\/div>\n

Tablets often don’t come with kickstands or enough ports, so it’s a good idea to snag a few accessories to enhance your experience. These are some of our favorite tablet accessories, many of which you can also find in our Best iPad Accessories guide<\/a>.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Satechi Aluminum Desktop Stand for $40<\/a>:<\/strong> This is my favorite tablet stand, so much so that I’ve taken it with me on trips. It packs down relatively well, and it is very<\/em> stable\u2014there’s no wobbling around here. You can also adjust the angle quite a bit. It can handle huge sizes too\u2014it worked perfectly with my 12.9-inch iPad Pro.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Logitech K380 Pebble Bluetooth Keyboard for $38<\/a>:<\/strong> Want a simple Bluetooth keyboard for your tablet instead of spending half the price of your tablet on a keyboard case? I’ve used Logitech’s K380 for years and it’s functioned perfectly. It takes two AA batteries that I’ve yet to replace (Logitech claims two years of use), and you can switch between three connected devices via Bluetooth.<\/p>\n

\"Twelve<\/picture><\/span><\/div>\n
<\/p>\n

StayGo Mini.<\/p>\n

Twelve South StayGo Mini USB-C Hub for $30<\/a>:<\/strong> This works with iPads and other tablets just fine. You can either plug it in and keep it flush with the edge of a slate or use the included cord to keep it extended. You get a USB-C port you can use for pass-through charging, a USB-A, an HDMI, and a headphone jack.<\/p>\n

Lamicall Gooseneck Tablet Holder for $18<\/a>:<\/strong> I’ve used this on my bed frame to hold up various tablets for more than a year. The gooseneck requires a bit of finagling to get to the right position, and if you’re constantly tapping the tablet, it will<\/em> jiggle around. But it’s a great hands-free way<\/a> to watch movies. You can affix the clamp to any surface, like a desk or kitchen counter.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Twelve South HoverBar Duo Mount\/Stand for $80<\/strong><\/a>: You can use this as a stand or as an arm mount, and Twelve South makes it really easy to switch between the two. That means you can easily affix your tablet to your bedside arm mount and then put it on the stand in your home office in the morning. Both are sturdy, and the arm mount is decently adjustable. Best of all, it doesn’t wiggle around as much as the Lamicall above when you tap the screen.<\/p>\n

Anker Nano 3 30-Watt Charging Adapter for $17<\/a>:<\/strong> Most tablets charge at around 18 watts, so this 30-watt charger from Anker is more than capable. The plugs fold up, and it’s pretty compact.<\/p>\n

Anker Laptop Power Bank for $135<\/a>:<\/strong> This flight-approved power bank<\/a> has a massive 25,000-mAh capacity, which should be enough to recharge most tablets twice, or larger tablets once. It dishes out up to 165 watts, meaning it has plenty of power to recharge even a laptop. You can fast-charge with the USB-C ports and use the USB-A port on another device. There’s a display that shows the battery\u2019s current charge, a built-in retractable USB-C cable, and a second that doubles as a carry loop.<\/p>\n\n
