The Galaxy Tab S9 tablet has been Samsung's flagship tablet until the Galaxy Tab S10+ succeeded it last year. But now you can get the more budget-friendly FE version for a record-low price. The Galaxy Tab S9 FE is $297.72 (originally $449.99), a great value considering it comes with a stylus. Samsung Galaxy Tab S9 FE $279.72 at Amazon $449.99 Save $170.27 Get Deal Get Deal $279.72 at Amazon $449.99 Save $170.27 The Tab S9 FE is a great budget tablet for anyone looking to get a lot for their money. The best part is that it comes with an S Pen, which by itself retails for $94.99. The Tab S9 FE won't blow your mind with specs: It's got a 90Hz refresh rate screen with a 1,440 x 2,304 resolution, it has not an IPS LCD screen instead of AMOLED, and comes with 6GB of RAM and 128GB of storage. But it's water-resistant with an IP68 rating and includes the Android 13 software; it also includes Samsung DeX, which lets you use your tablet like a laptop (you can get the Dexnor Keyboard Case to attach it to the tablet and pair it with Samsung DeX); and it has the advantage of getting software updates, unlike most tablet competitors. Keep in mind that you can't connect it to a monitor, however, even with a USB-C video cable.At the front, you have a 12MP ultrawide camera; in the back, an 8MP. Wifi will be strong with Wi-Fi 6, and the battery life is great, offering you up to 18 hours depending on use (and it's a USB-C charger). If you're looking for a reliable tablet that will get software updates for years at a budget price and comes with a stylus, you could do worse than the Galaxy Tab S9 FE.
