This cheap Samsung tablet with an S Pen just scored $100 OFF at Best Buy, just in time for Black Friday
That's $249 for a capable, albeit affordable, tablet with the Samsung S Pen.
Those who are looking for a cheap tablet deal have come to the right place, especially as Best Buy cuts $150 off the Samsung Galaxy Tab S10 Lite for its early Black Friday sale. Perhaps the most notable thing about this cheap tablet is that it's one of the few economy-level Samsung tablets that also comes with the first-party S Pen, despite not carrying a premium-level price tag with it.
The S10 Lite has a 10.9-inch display with a 2112 x 1320 resolution, as well as a battery life of up to 16 hours per charge. This particular deal is for the base-level 128GB storage configuration, though it also comes with a microSD port for added storage, or you can upgrade to the 256GB version.
The S10 Lite may not be included in our best Samsung tablets index, partially just because there are so many other high-powered options out there. But if you aren't looking to spend the extra hundreds of dollars, this deal might be worth checking out.
Samsung Galaxy Tab S10 Lite: $349.99 $249.99 for Best Buy's Black Friday Sale
Best Buy has just launched its Black Friday deals in earnest, cutting $100 off the already affordable Samsung Galaxy Tab S10 Lite. The S10 Lite comes with an included first-party S Pen stylus, a 10.9-inch screen, and a solid battery life that's plenty for most casual users.
✅Recommended if: you want a cheap or mid-range tablet option that also comes with an included first-party stylus; you're looking for a Samsung tablet that has enough battery life to make it through most workdays, school days, or other long periods of use; having a decently sized screen is important to you, and you're particularly looking for something around 11 inches or so.
❌Skip this deal if: you don't care about having a stylus included and you'd prefer to go with something offering better performance; you need more than 128GB of built-in storage; you prefer a larger tablet screen and would be willing to upgrade.
The Samsung Galaxy Tab S10 Lite is a solid mid-range offering from the company, especially with its inclusion of the Samsung S Pen, a 10.9-inch touchscreen with a 90Hz refresh rate, and up to 16 hours of battery life per charge. It isn't nearly as expensive as Samsung's premium tablets which normally come with the S Pen, and it still comes with decent performance backed by the Exynos 1380 CPU and 8GB of RAM.
While it can be purchased with 256GB of onboard storage, this model has just 128GB, though it also includes a microSD port that can be used to add up to 2TB of external storage space.
At just $249 with this Black Friday deal, it's looking particularly competitive for what it offers, especially for those who like note-taking, drawing, and other tasks that can be enabled with the S Pen stylus.
