Small Samsung tablet: for on the go
With its 8.7-inch (22.1cm) size, the Tab A9 is Samsung's smallest tablet. A small tablet is mainly useful on the go. You can easily hold this new tablet on the go with 1 hand and bring it with you in your bag. An 8-inch tablet is slightly larger than your smartphone, so you can watch a video a bit more comfortably. Choose a larger tablet if you watch a lot of movies and series.
Medium-sized Samsung tablets: for light tasks
The Samsung Galaxy Tab A9 Plus, Tab S9 FE, and Tab S9 are medium-sized tablets with an 11-inch (28cm) screen. You can easily take these medium-sized tablets with you in your bag and hold them with 1 hand. You have more screen space than on a small tablet, which allows you to watch movies more comfortably. If you often open apps side by side, choose a larger tablet for more screen space.
Large Samsung tablet: work or studies
The Samsung Galaxy Tab S10 Plus has a 12.4-inch (31.5cm) screen size. You can easily open 2 apps at the same time on the large screen. This allows you to take notes while you watch a video, for example. This makes these tablets suitable for your work or school. It's more difficult to hold large tablets due to the large screen. Don't want to hold your tablet the entire time? Order a book case or tablet mount as well. This way, you can easily place it upright.
Very large Samsung tablet: intensive use
The Samsung Galaxy Tab S10 Ultra has the largest screen at 14.6 inches (37cm). This is comparable to the screen of an average laptop. You have a lot of screen space thanks to the large screen. This allows you to comfortably work on your presentations and accurately edit your sketches or other creative projects. Thanks to the large size and high weight, it's difficult to hold the tablet. That's why you can use a tablet mount or tablet cover with a stand.
