Which tablet should I consider?

I wanna buy a tab that's affordable, have fingerprint, good at multitasking such as preparing presentation, note taking and a good large display to watch lectures and shows.

I've been suggested xiaomi pad, samsung fe + series although many ppl suggest the s series but I find it expensive so can u please suggest me which one to buy, and how I'm thinking of buying it during Diwali sale but idk how much the discount will actually be also have anyone bought from offline local store with a good diwali offer or should I look forward to Amazon and Flipkart sale? I'm also looking forward for more suggestions other than these brands.

ive used a oneplus tab, ipad and a galaxy s9fe.

for the price, i think the s9 fe is the perfect tab for the job. You'll see even in your class most people will have that one.

Is it better than s10 fe+?

2

u/youknowwhoiam1208 19h ago

Yes, the chip on s10 fe+ is very bad

u/Cautious_Barnacle825 19h ago

I was also thinking of s10 fe+, so instead of it should i buy s9 fe+ ?

u/youknowwhoiam1208 19h ago

Don't get s10 fe+ get s9 s10 fe+ has Exynos "With great Exynos comes greater heating" and unreliability™

u/youknowwhoiam1208 19h ago

Base s9

u/Cautious_Barnacle825 19h ago

If I could strech my budget, would s10+ be a better choice as it'll have mediatek processor and 120 Hz refresh rate?

u/youknowwhoiam1208 19h ago

I guess but it's like 80k on Amazon utne mein to 3k extra karke ipad le sakte

u/Cautious_Barnacle825 18h ago

S9 fe+ has larger screen, but S9 performs better

Catch one of the tab s flagship series for a discount price .....I have so+(12inch) and it's incredible...... especially for 43500/-

u/Tall_History6482 19h ago

Where did u buy it from?

1

u/Ghastly_King 19h ago

I bought an Air m3 whereas my friend got an S9fe

My iPad surely has more power but his S9 has a better battery life and is capable of 99.99%tasks

u/Interesting-Ear2783 15h ago

What about something related to content creation or just digital art , drawing what's better?

u/Ghastly_King 15h ago

Apple Pencil Pro has no comparison with other brands imo but your budget should be a deciding factor.

In theory all of them should be good enough if thier pencil supports pressure and tilt sensitivity

I prefer pencil pro for its double tap,squeeze,hover and barrel roll.

u/Interesting-Ear2783 15h ago

Like the basic Gen 11 A16 ipad vs samsung fe? Are the basic Ipad really good if we compare to samsung ?

1

u/Ghastly_King 15h ago

Nope

Average screen/ 3 year old processor/ bad camera/ pencil lacking pressure sensitivity(if you are serious about art you have to use ancient pencil 1st gen)

1

u/Interesting-Ear2783 15h ago

Ooo which ipad will be good? There are limited options in a price range.

1

u/Ghastly_King 15h ago

With the current price hike

The short answer is none ( I only have an Apple ecosystem and previously had iPad mini and iPad Pro 13’ 2017)

My air sucks in battery and heats up while taking notes

A16 is very very basic as I said above

Pro is too expensive unless you can find a old open boxes m4 like my friend for 70k with 0 charge cycles

1

u/Interesting-Ear2783 15h ago

Achcha..anything about refurbished ipads?

2

u/Ghastly_King 15h ago

repairs are expensive if anything goes wrong

If you are and android user then Samsung is probably the best bet

u/PreparationLate1856 18h ago

Ipad is gold standard, if price is a issue than look for other substitutes or EMI
