Samsung may have just launched its new Galaxy Tab S12 series, but you don't need to spend that much to get a great Android tablet experience. Samsung's previous-generation Galaxy Tab S11, which is still a fantastic tablet, is currently 36% off during Prime Big Deal Days, giving you a massive $355 discount.
If you're in the market for a new Android tablet and want a flagship experience with a big AMOLED display, S Pen support, and desktop-level productivity, this Galaxy Tab S11 deal is definitely worth considering.
✅ Recommended if: You want a premium Android tablet with an AMOLED display, included S Pen, expandable storage, and flagship performance without paying Galaxy Tab S12 prices.
❌ Skip this deal if: You already own a recent Galaxy Tab S-series tablet, need the latest hardware, or specifically want the much larger display of Samsung's Ultra models.
If you look around the Android tablet market, you'll rarely find a tablet around this price that offers an AMOLED display, and that's probably the Galaxy Tab S11's biggest strength. Unlike plenty of cheaper tablets that use IPS LCD panels, Samsung gives you an 11-inch AMOLED display, which means richer colors, deeper blacks, and an overall much better experience when watching movies or other content.
Samsung isn't sacrificing performance either. The Galaxy Tab S11 is still powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 9400+ chipset and comes with up to 12GB of RAM, so you can throw pretty much anything at this tablet without worrying too much about performance. Whether it's note-taking, gaming, or even some video editing, there's still plenty of power here.
Speaking of note-taking, Samsung bundles the S Pen in the box, so you don't have to spend extra if you want to use the tablet for drawing or taking notes in class. There's also a microSD card slot if you want to expand the storage later.
But one of my favorite things about the Galaxy Tab S11 is still its design. The tablet is only 5.5mm thin while still offering an IP68 dust and water resistance rating, making it easy to carry around without giving up the durability you'd expect from a flagship tablet.
On the whole, if you're looking for an Android tablet with flagship specs that doesn't burn a hole in your pocket, the Galaxy Tab S11 is probably the one I'd look at during Prime Big Deal Days. It still gives you a portable design, plenty of performance, S Pen support, and, most importantly, an AMOLED display that you'll actually enjoy looking at.
