A lot of Prime Day tablet deals look better at first glance than they do at checkout. The Galaxy Tab S11 is more convincing because it’s a current Samsung flagship with the right mix of display quality, portability, and S Pen support for the money.

Samsung Galaxy Tab S11 128GB Wi-Fi: a flagship Android tablet at a saner Prime Day price

The Samsung Galaxy Tab S11 128GB Wi-Fi is the kind of Prime Day offer I’d actually pause on. It gives you Samsung’s premium tablet experience without pushing the final price into full flagship territory. You’re getting an 11-inch Dynamic AMOLED 2X display, a 3nm MediaTek processor, Galaxy AI features, IP68 protection, and an included S Pen.

Amazon currently lists the Galaxy Tab S11 at $534.99 for Prime Day, down from a $899.99 list price. That comes to $365 off, or 41%. The listing also shows a regular price of $549.99, so the honest read is this: the giant percentage comes from the list price, but the Prime-exclusive total still lands well for a high-end Samsung tablet. The quick verdict:

Pros
  • Stunningly bright AMOLED screen
  • Extremely thin, premium chassis
  • Excellent, long standby battery
  • Free included S Pen
  • Powerful desktop DeX multitasking
  • IP68 water and dustproofing
Cons
  • Noticeable generation-over-generation price hike
  • Processor trails Apple M-series
  • Keyboard accessory sold separately
  • Base 11-inch lacks anti-glre
  • No built-in cellular support

This deal fits Android users, Samsung phone owners, students, travelers, and anyone who wants a smaller tablet for streaming, reading, notes, sketching, browsing, and light work. The 11-inch size gives it a cleaner everyday pitch than Samsung’s larger productivity tablets. You can carry it easily, but the screen still feels roomy enough for split-screen use, media, and casual work.

We went hands-on with the Galaxy Tab S11 series and came away liking Samsung’s decision to bring back the smaller 11-inch model. The AMOLED screen, slim build, S Pen support, and flagship hardware give it more range than a basic streaming slate, especially when you want one device for entertainment and occasional productivity.

Amazon also shows a 4.7-star rating from 441 reviews, which gives the listing some useful buyer backing. The main caveat is ecosystem lock-in. iPad users already deep in Apple apps and accessories probably shouldn’t switch just for a discount. The deal is also shown as Prime-exclusive, so you’ll likely need an eligible Prime account to see the final checkout total.

Amazon quietly upgrades its Fire HD 10 tablet with a whopping 1GB of RAM
Amazon really said, "Here's 1GB. You're welcome."
Amazon Fire HD 10 tablet

Amazon has quietly refreshed one of its most popular tablets, but not in the way many expected. Instead of launching a brand-new Fire tablet after its longest product drought in years, the company has introduced a slightly upgraded version of the existing Fire HD 10 with an extra gigabyte of RAM.

The update is modest on paper, yet it arrives at an interesting time. Amazon hasn't introduced a new Fire tablet since the Fire HD 8 refresh in 2024, while products like the Fire 7 and Fire Max 11 have yet to receive successors. Rather than expanding its lineup, Amazon appears to be extending the life of an aging device with a minor hardware tweak.

You’ll soon be able to use WhatsApp on your iPad without touching your iPhone
Companion mode stays. Primary mode arrives. WhatsApp on iPad just became a lot more useful.
Computer, Electronics, Pc

If you’ve ever used WhatsApp on your iPad, you already know its limitations. You can’t set it up without a primary device, can’t share live location, and can't use the broadcast lists feature. 

That’s finally changing. WhatsApp’s latest update gives iPad users a long-due promotion. Rather than serving as an extension of your iPhone, it will soon become your main device.
