Best Samsung Galaxy tablets

Top pick: Galaxy Tab S11 — Samsung's newest flagship tablet, with the sharpest all-round mix of screen, speed and S Pen support. It's the one to buy if you want a tablet that stays quick for years and can double as a laptop-ish work device.

Who the others suit:

• Tab S10 FE Plus — the big-screen pick for reading, streaming and sketching; a 13.1-inch panel without flagship money.
• Tab S10 Ultra — the largest canvas (14.6 in) for split-screen multitasking and drawing.
• Tab S9 FE — the sensible middle: S Pen included, long battery, good for notes and study.
• Tab A11+ / A9+ — budget family tablets for streaming, browsing and kids; the A9+ 5G adds mobile data.
• Tab Active5 Pro — rugged, for job sites and fieldwork.
